Today I went for my last braces check in and I asked her if I could get a palate expander and she said and I quote:

“Don’t trust that looksmaxxing stuff online and that TikTok stuff”
“Your palate is perfectly normal If we were to give you an expander it would ruin your back bite and make your back teeth arch”

I trust her but I need alternatives or do I just go to another orthodontist to fix my narrow ass lower third 😭

If your lowest part of your face is narrow a palate expander would just enlarge your zygos and make it more disproportionate

Try test
