Feng, Xin; Chen, Yicheng; Cai, Weihua; Lie, Stein Atle; Hellén-Halme, Kristina; Shi, Xie-Qi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)

Background Adenoid hypertrophy among orthodontic patients may be detected in lateral cephalograms. The study investigates the aerodynamic characteristics within the upper airway (UA) by means of computational fluid dynamics ...
The effect of rapid maxillary expansion on the upper airway’s aerodynamic characteristics

Feng, Xin; Chen, Yicheng; Hellén-Halme, Kristina; Cai, Weihua; Shi, Xie-Qi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)

Background The effect of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) on the upper airway (UA) has been studied earlier but without a consistent conclusion. This study aims to evaluate the outcome of RME on the UA function in terms ...
