Abstract
The use of a bone-borne distractor for orthodontic distraction after maxillary expansion surgery appears to be an effective, simple and well-tolerated alternative to the use of a tooth-borne distractor. According to patients, this distractor also appears easier to use than the traditional Hyrax-type distractor. This ease of use is correlated with overall satisfaction.
