Tell your orthodontist that you don’t want your maxilla to be recessed and see what they say

could I ask for an expander or is it too late? I only have a few months left of wearing my braces and I heard u need to get one before u start braces because of the gap itll give u. im asking this because they sometimes use expanders to fix misalignment from what ive heard so maybe I could get one as an alternative but to also widen my palate at the same time.

all those questions, u can directly ask your ortho, why waste time asking them here? Ur question doesn’t really have a definitive answer online because orthodontic plans are personalized for each individual. My ortho gave me palate expander before braces, idk about urs
 
she gave me palate expander at 16
