About This File
This 3D model of a rapid palatal expander provides a highly detailed and anatomically accurate representation of this orthodontic device and its function in dental treatment.
It highlights the expander's structure, including the central screw mechanism and bands that attach to the upper molars, demonstrating how gradual adjustments widen the upper jaw to correct issues such as crossbites, crowding, and narrow palates. The model effectively illustrates the biomechanics of palatal expansion and the impact on jaw alignment and airway improvement.
Designed for educational and clinical purposes, this model is an invaluable tool for studying orthodontic treatments, understanding the process of maxillary expansion, and visualizing the effects of treatment on oral anatomy.
Ideal for orthodontists, dentists, educators, and students, it supports teaching, training, and patient education by providing a hands-on approach to explaining the application, function, and benefits of rapid palatal expanders.
