Palate Expander or surgery first?

[Double_AA_]

So I want to get some sort of palate expander(MSE, marpe, sarpe,dome,etc.), and possible get a lefort 1 or a bimax(depending on how bad I need it). My question is whether it would be smarter to get the palate expander first, then the surgery? Or surgery, then palate expander? In the process of saving money, in the mean time gonna softmax as much as possible

Think the palate expander is a waste of time?

depends on your case. you can get segmental lefort1 with bimax for expansion. cuz of the limits, if you are an extreme case, segmental might not be enough and u can get non/surgical expansion before bimax

I don’t know if I’m an extreme case but my teeth are crowded, a canine in my right side could come in because my little to no spacing. I’ve been mewing, and wearing a flat mouth gaurd at night in hope of causing some palate expansion while I wait.

like mse but for your jaw, most orthodontists just move the teeth after giving mse/marpe, this gives the person a balloon shaped face cucking them
