Does the expander crack the top of ur mouth open!!!?!


Question: plz tell me!!


Answers: plz tell me!!

no actually, it will open up the "plates" that form your palate.
basically, when you were growing in your moms belly, your face and mouth come together like closing a book....so your palate has a "fissure" line from where the 2 parts of your head and face meet, that will fuse together once you stop growing.
when you put a palatal expander in, it shifts open those plates to help shift the palate (roof of your mouth) it is use if the roof of your mouth is too narrow. so technically, there is already a crack line there (the fissure) but it will fuse together. hope this helps

idk......
