So, I got an RPE mainly because of the asymmetry I had(and still kinda have but it's much less noticeable). If I didn't have that asymmetry and just a narrow palate with overcrowded teeth, I'd choose a Schwarz, the purchase was made on the site bracesshop.com they are based in Germany and also sended me updates on how it's going and all, even pics to make sure the appliance was what I wanted

The white mold was made by me the yellow by them very quality stuff I must say

Before and after about 3 months apart, but I had most of the change in the second month anyway

Side by side

I tried to crop the images but now it seems like I zoomed in and fraud the results, if anyone has doubts I could respond with the uncropped version of the images IDC

OFC I didn't expect any skeletal change I only wanted to fix my occlusion because my midline was fine but had some teeth flared inwards and some outwards, resulting in a fcked up occlusion also you can see how overcrowded af my lower arch is

This was the confirmation image I got when the applience was ready

i think you need marpe at age 20. your bones are fused at that age, rpe wont by itself wont do anything

yeah I agree, I was looking only for alveolar expansion, I'll modify my expander "soon" so I can expand even more lol
