Banded and bonded hyrax were compared for pain perception during a three-day follow up.<b> Results: </b>No statistically significant difference was found when comparing the two different expanders. Overall, the pain was mild to moderate. <b>Conclusion:</b> We found no difference in pain perception when comparing banded and bonded Hyrax expanders.},
