It's called a Pallet-Expander ..... I just got mine off a few months ago. It will fit on the roof of your mouth and you won't be able to remove it. It's a little uncomfortable when you first have it on,- much like braces at first, but then you get used to it and forget it's even there. It's smooth and is fun to run your tong against when your board in class. There are medal rings around the edge and it will attach to the back molars. It will be fine. - good luck!PS. I suggest that you take Tylenol before you go so it will be active by the time they put it in, and eat alot of more before hand.
