Surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE), also known as surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion(SARME),[1] is a technique in the field of orthodontics which is used to expand the maxillary arch. This technique is a combination of both Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Orthodontics. This procedure is primarily done in adult patients whose maxillary sutures are fused and cannot be expanded via other techniques.
