MARPE

MARPE (Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion)

MARPE can play an important role in improving airway function and may help patients with obstructive sleep apnea. By gently widening the upper jaw, MARPE increases the space in the nasal passages and upper airway, allowing for better airflow during sleep. This expansion can reduce airway resistance and contribute to more restful, uninterrupted breathing at night. When combined with Invisalign, we’re able to not only enhance airway health but also align the teeth and optimize the bite. At our office, we take a comprehensive, airway-focused approach to treatment, using advanced technology to improve both your smile and overall quality of sleep.
