My palate before and after expansion

[RAITEIII]

Expanded the maxilla 8mm and mandible 9mm at 18 years old and am now finishing with invisalign (tray 20/32) at 20 years old.

My palate width went from ~37mm at the second molar to ~45mm at the third molars. The expansion stage took about 1 year.

Oh and sorry about the bad camera quality in the before, I only had an iPod at the time since my phone broke.

Would you say this would do the same job as your homeoblock?

who was your ortho? I'm very interested in expanders and looking for one with a proven track record.
