- Abstract
Rapid palatal expansion (RPE) devices have been used for the treatment of skeletal transversal deficits in the maxilla for almost a century. Both the use of skeletal anchorage and the aid of CAD/CAM procedures result in many individual RPE modifications. Particularly with newly developed orthodontic appliances, careful quality management that evaluates both the clinical effectiveness and identifies any risks is of the greatest importance. This article shows a clinical example of a modified hybrid Hyrax (Brölex), as well as material-technical limits for clinical risk assessment.
