Answers:
you should definitely feel pressure from the expander expanding!.
its not supposed to loosen!. that would make the roof of your mouth smaller or would do nothing!. and that's not the point of this appliance!.
be aware!. it can get painful!.
and when you take it off, it feels sooo weird!. like you have a gigantic hole in your mouth!. and i would avoid eating ketchup the first couple of days you take it off!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
