There are 48 activations on the standard RPE; each activation is equal to 1/4 millimeter.
Specialty Appliances™ carries most manufacturers' screws. They include Leone, Dentaurum, Forestadent, Super Screw, and Summit.
Specialty Appliances™ was the inventor of the RES (Ratcheting Expansion Screw). We also offer the Dentaurum "Click", and the Forestadent "Snap-Lock".
The Dentaurum MiniPalex Screw (also known as the Variety) is the most commonly-used expansion screw.
It has 12 millimeters of expansion capability and is half the size of the traditional RPE screws.
The Rapid Molar Distalizer has proven to be a very effective distalizing appliance. The distalization is controlled by the expansion screws in 1/4 millimeter increments.
