At Miami Designer Smiles, we believe in continually evolving to meet the diverse requirements of our patients. Our Miami-based dental practice prides itself on staying at the forefront of dental innovation. One advanced orthodontic treatment we provide is MARPE (Miniscrew Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion). This technique is a testament to our dedication to transformative dentistry.
Understanding MARPE
Miniscrew Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion, or MARPE, is a recent development in orthodontics. The treatment is mainly designed to widen the upper jaw and help correct crossbite and overcrowded teeth in adults. Unlike traditional braces or palatal expanders, MARPE uses miniscrews or dental implants to broaden the upper jaw, offering a non-surgical solution for adults seeking smile corrections and improved oral function.
Benefits of MARPE
Incorporating MARPE into our treatment gallery has helped us deliver practical solutions to our patients. Here are some advantages of this technique:
Non-surgical Procedure
One significant advantage that comes with MARPE is its non-surgical approach. Expanding the upper jaw among adults is usually complex because, unlike children, their palatal sutures have fused. Earlier, this condition would demand surgical intervention, but with MARPE, we achieve effective results without complex surgical procedures.
Efficient and Rapid Treatment
The MARPE procedure can achieve significant palatal expansion within a few weeks. Since the mini-implants penetrate the palatal bone, the force from the appliance directly affects the region.
Improved Aesthetics and Oral Health
Post-expansion, there is better alignment of teeth and optimal occlusion. This improved alignment can solve issues such as crossbite and overcrowding, enhancing your smile and oral health.
Why Choose MARPE at Miami Designer Smiles: Expertise and Innovation
The success of MARPE lies in the accurate placement of the miniscrews and the appropriate use of the orthodontic appliance. Dr. Raul Garcia and Dr. Concepcion Sanchez-Garcia, our skilled practitioners, have years of experience and success in performing MARPE procedures. Their precision and proficiency have played a crucial role in the positive outcomes we have achieved over the years.
At Miami Designer Smiles, we do not restrict ourselves to MARPE or orthodontics only. Our wide range of services spans from general to cosmetic dentistry, including groundbreaking treatments like neuromuscular orthodontics, wisdom teeth removal, sleep apnea treatment, and much more. This comprehensive set of treatments ensures that you do not have to go anywhere else for your dental needs.
MARPE: A Part of Comprehensive Orthodontics
When a patient visits us with an orthodontic issue, our approach is never one-dimensional. We believe MARPE functions best when integrated with other orthodontic solutions such as Invisalign and controlled arch braces. This integrated approach allows us to achieve well-rounded results.
Our cosmetic dentistry, like veneers, teeth whitening, and gum recontouring, pairs flawlessly with orthodontic treatments, offering complete dental makeovers. We believe in transformational dentistry, an approach that goes beyond treating individual issues and aims for holistic enhancements.
