U.S., Dec. 31 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07309640) titled 'The Effects of Magnesium (Mg) Supplement and Alternate Maxillary Expansion and Constriction (Alt-RAMEC) in Patient With Transverse Maxillary Deficiency (TMD)' on Nov. 30.

Brief Summary: This randomized clinical trial evaluates the effect of combining magnesium supplementation with an orthodontic technique called Alternate Maxillary Expansion and Constriction (Alt-RAMEC) using a Micro-implant Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion (MARPE) appliance to treat adults (18-30 years) with transverse maxillary deficiency (TMD). TMD is a condition where the upper jaw is narrower than normal, which can affect bite and facial development.
