A palatal expander widens a narrow upper jaw while a child is still growing and makes room for the teeth that are coming through. It is sometimes combined with a face mask when the upper jaw is not growing forward enough.
We only show photos of the teeth, with no faces or names. Results vary from patient to patient – every treatment plan is made after an examination.






At the first appointment the orthodontist will explain the problem, the treatment options and how long treatment will take.
