Abrasions and new ridge ?? Adult Removable Palate Expander
Hi Guys, quick question, Unless it's my imagination and I've never noticed before, but it seems I now have a prominent ridge in my upper palate, that looks quite red.
Is this normal with a removable palate expander?? is it new bone growth??
Thanks

Expander question
Quick question regarding a removable expander.
How do you know whether it's actually moving the jaw and not just the teeth? Are there any obvious signs, Just a little paranoid.
Thanks :)

Re: Newbie sarme surgery and expander advise
Welcome and well done :D I just joined today.
Just started my expander too, It's not very comfy but will admit it's becoming more and more unnoticeable. I have the removable sort which is really good in terms of cleaning etc etc
Good luck hope I can see update regularly :D

[quote="Featheryy1221"]Hello! Welcome the forum! :) I know how you feel about being nervous that the palatal expander won't work since I had those exact same fears when I started my treatment. I was 21 when I first started with my expander. For me, mine worked and I'm so glad I chose that ...
