“…Although the dental and skeletal effects of expansion using dental or skeletal anchorage are well documented, little information is available concerning the overlying soft tissue changes following these treatment modalities. The authors who have analyzed soft tissue changes associated with RME and SARME were more interested with naso-maxillary region ( 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ). They reported modifications in cheek, upper lip and nasal morphology which were explained majorly by the transversal enlargement of the maxilla, except for few studies ( 19 , 23 ) reporting that RME did not have significant clinical effects on the nose.…”
