Braces Checkups - 11 year old patient - Upper and Lower Orthodontic Expanders - Tooth Time

Are you in braces treatment? This is a Fast appointment putting a Rapid Palatal Expander and a Lower expander

What does a rapid palatal expander do?

Upper jaw expansion is a form of orthodontic treatment that is used in specific cases. By widening the circumference of the palate, the perimeter of the dental arch increases to create more space for teeth growth.

How long does a rapid palatal expander stay in?

Typically, an expander will be in place for about 9 months total time. This may vary from child to child depending on his or her needs.
Will it Hurt? There will be some discomfort at first, but there will not be a lot of pain. The expander may feel heavy in your mouth at first, since it is something new and different in there. When the palate expander is widened, you may feel some pressure in your mouth and on your tongue
What is a lower expander?

Like its counterpart, the palatal expander, a lower expander is used to gradually widen the lower teeth to correct servere crowding before all of the permanent teeth have erupted. Some signs that your child might require a lower expander are that: There isn't enough space for all of the lower teeth, causing crowding.
