Palate expansion at any age?

How to balance parathyroid hormone with calcitonin for optimal skull malleability and bone growth.



Evidence for the effects of parathyroid hormone in the midpalatal suture:



Effects of continuous and intermittent parathyroid hormone administration on midpalatal suture expansion in rats



Parathyroid hormone promotes maxillary expansion and reduces relapse in the repeated activation maxillary expansion rat model by regulating Wnt/B-catenin pathway




What does PTH do?



Parathyroid hormone increases blood calcium by doing three main things:

  1. Stimulating osteoclasts
  2. Promoting calcium reabsorption in the kidneys
  3. Increasing active vitamin D which boosts calcium absorption in the gut
PTH in and of itself promotes bone resorption which means that more calcium will be released from the bones which means that the bones become less dense and more malleable



What does calcitonin do?

Calcitonin decreases blood calcium by doing two main things:

  1. Inhibiting osteoclasts
  2. Promoting calcium storage in bones
Calcitonin in and of itself promotes bone deposition which means stronger, denser bones, but will also mean less skull malleability



PTH to calcitonin ratio

High PTH/low calcitonin:

  1. Bone is broken down faster than it's formed
  2. The outcome will be more pliable/weakened bones.
Low PTH/ high calcitonin:

  1. Bone building dominates
  2. Bones become denser but also less flexible
In short, PTH increases malleability but weakens bone while calcitonin decreases malleability but strengthens bones



In theory, it would be best to have PTH and calcitonin relatively balanced while PTH being slightly higher so that your sutures will be loosened without allowing osteoclasts activity to occur

How do we do this to allow palatal expansion?

  1. Don't consume foods high in phosphorus together with foods high in calcium.
  2. Have good vitamin D status to regulate
PTH, minimum of 45 ng/ml but optimal would be close to 70 or 80 depending on where you live

  1. PTH follows a circadian pattern and peaks at night, a way to utilize this would be to consume a high phosphorus meal as your last meal.
  2. Avoid chronic high calcium, 500-1200
mg/day is good as long as you have great vitamin D and dont consume any oxalates

5. Improve your thyroid health through seafood, sunlight, seasonal sugar and stress management because calcitonin is made by thyroid C-cells



If you utilize this guide together with proper tongue posture, proper chewing of hard and nutrient dense foods, stress based exercises on the face and other suture loosening methods your palate could technically expand at any age

I suck at formatting, i made a version on notes in my phone then posted it directly from my phone. Info is what matters, idc abt BOTB
