Rapid maxillary expansion in kids: The process and its benefits
Rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is a common orthodontic procedure used to widen the upper jaw (maxilla) in children. This approach is highly effective during childhood because the maxilla is still developing, making it more responsive to treatment. RME not only corrects dental issues but can also address airway and breathing problems, improving overall health.
