Do retainers fuck growth?

[geo600]

Im 16 in puberty and wear retainers at night so will my retainers prevent expansion of the palate? If it’s forcing my palate to maintain that shape then will that not then stop growth of the maxilla.

You’re not going to expand your palate naturally at the age anyways. It only works for children.

If you want to expand your palate, get a device to expand it from a good Ortho

But palate width won’t really do much for you except for your smile. Your maxilla width is set already

You are 16. It was over by the age of 12.

What's the issue with braces?

Those cause skeletal expansion. Whether it's great or not for esthetics is a different topic.

Braces can’t expand the palate, just your arch outward which can give a bigger smile.

You need a device to expand the palate and usually surgery to open up your sutures past teen

You said that braces afterwards are still needed as if by needing braces later makes the procedure and expansion invalid.

Alright? And no, surgery is only used past age 25 usually. For 16-25 MSE/MARPE.

I think you’re a bit slow.

MSE literally opens up your sutures first and then adds the palate expander. It’s still a surgery

MSE is an appliance that requires no surgery.
