About my orthodontist.

[E moment]

They said marpe and headgear won't work if your not 8-9 but all information online says it does. I also don't know where to find a second opinion

 

[rhevnge]

if your over 18 maybe SARPE?

Idk it's hard to find one. My maxilla is slightly recessed and one side of my teeth is turning inwards to match the top ones. My ramus is also short and i got kinda downgrowth. Would marpe and headgear work to rotate and move my maxilla forward.

your supposes to get braces after marpe since youll have a gap but in some cases you might have to before go to a different ortho for different opinions or fake symptoms

yea

and idk about you but I live in VA and there are about 25 orthodontists within a 15mil radius from me

its a competitive field

Australia and my orthodontist says it won't work anyone who isn't 9. Hopefully another orthodontist I go to actually cares.

 

[OlympicSizzler]

If this is true, then I'm fucked beyond belief, SARPE is hella traumatic fuck

 

[hardstucklmtn]

Is this where they split the suture?

I seen some 20 yo dude on TikTok have results from a mini screw rpe

ur orthodontist is blatantly lying, maybe he wants u to get surgical rpe so he can get more money

both marpe and sarpe split suture, one does it with a mini screw and the other through surgeryt

Eh same ones who took out like 4 baby teeth. Nothing that bad happened though since my back teeth were coming so I didn't get fucked too hard. They said if I get forward growth and width my jaw would be too short but im pretty sure it follows.

yep

 

[hardstucklmtn]

yep

Marpe works any age. I hate my orthodontist, they even say they treat there patients like family and they just lie

Although your bones are more connected and fused it will hurt more for them to seperate

Is there anyways to ascend my jaw is asymetrical. Whats a way to get the best while I still can

 

[134applesauce456]

Why not get MSE?

if ur too old ur suture is less malleable (fully fused) and has to be split through surgerical means not miniscrews

this doesn't happen till late 20s though
