  1. T1 = before maxillary expansion, T2 = 6 months after maxillary expansion. TB = Tooth-borne, BB = Bone-borne
  2. P values are reported according to the paired Student’s t Test for intra-group assessment and according to the unpaired Student’s t Test for comparison of mean differences between groups
  3. NS not significant
