My maxilla is flat/recessed and I don't have any forward growth. I don't think I'll be able to do bimax in the future. I'm 14 and still in puberty, will a palate expander give me more forward growth?

You are very young, your face still has a lot of developing to do, avoid pornography, eat healthy, exercise, focus on good posture, and at least wait until you turn 21 before doing anything major. It's better if you max out everything naturally first, you have plenty of time.

only use palate expanders if your dentist recommends you do so.

Check out my previous thread to see my side profile. I'm seriously considering if I should get a palate expander or maybe even braces. Thanks for actually trying to help out btw

Consult a dentist, let them know that you are thinking of getting a palate expander with the intention of improving facial aesthetics, braces are not really needed unless your teeth are heavily crooked, the dentist will advise you adequately, I have seen your picture and it does not seem bad at all, it can definitely be saved, so no need to worry. Always get professional help before delving into internet forums.

maxilla grows until 15-16 depends on the genetics too

Genetics are not great, I think I'm a bit on the lucky side of my genetics even with all of my failos like short ramus, flat maxilla and scleral show

Like i said, consult a dentist to see if you should get palate expanders, and in the meantime take care of yourself; diet, exercise, jawline exercises, etc.

Does thumb pulling work or is it cope?

No dude, palate expander only expands transversely. Even if you do all the mewing and chewing stuff i doubt it would make a significant change since you're 14 already.

no it does not do shit for aesthetics especially make your maxxila more forward
only if you pair it with a face puller head gear mask
palate expander will only laterally expand the maxxila not forwardly

it can open the door for proper tougue posture … assuming you keep up proper myofunctional habits … it can further aid with forward growth over the course of a few years

the device itself? no. it expands your palate horizontally. not vertically.

it’s a worthy investment and horizontal growth is just as important as forward growth so look into it

i mean my palate isnt actually narrow, but its not wide as hell. I was thinking because it expands the palate, it somehow maybe ties into the lower maxilla and maybe gives it some forward growth. I was coping all along :soy:
