Rapid Maxillary Expansion

At the beginning of MARPE treatment (T1) and at the end of the 3-month consolidation phase (T2), patients will complete the teen-STOP-BANG questionnaire and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to assess the potential benefit of MARPE in reducing the risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Additionally, changes in the upper airway will be evaluated using CBCT images obtained at T1 and T2.
