Will my retainer limit my skull growth

[Tttopgtoni]

Since it essentially locks the palate in place

I see this cope all the time being asked.

ORAL HEALTH is such an important aspect of facial aesthetics in general. No, a retainer is not going to fuck up your mandible. It's going to prevent your teeth repositioning themselves due to soft tissue.

Wear it daily, or watch your teeth very quickly descend back into the depths of hell. You don't want to go through another course of braces, it just fucking sucks.

no force is being applied and the palate once it expands doesnt retract its either its static or gets pushed into an outward direction for growth
