@just.orthodontics: Orthodontic expansion CAN have an impact on the airway and the ability to breath. In the past, Orthodontists would extract teeth instead of expanding the arch. Extraction of teeth can SOMETIMES decrease the space needed for the tongue. We are now more cautious with extractions and only use them when absolutely necessary and without risk of reducing the airway space. #orthodontics #braces #expander #sheboygan #manitowoc #orthodontist #teeth #dentistry #dentaltips #fyp #greenscreenvideo
Not me having such messed up anatomy that after a palate expander and a much later septoplasty - I still have breathing problems and sleep apnea 😂

I got one of those when I was 12 years old. The first time they turned the key and expanded it, something in my nasal passage POPPED and I could breathe better 😳

It’s a torture device. I had one as a kid before braces. I would scream and cry every day before it had to be turned. It feels like you’re being ripped apart.

so you're telling me I can't breathe properly and I snore because my mouth is too small and my nose too narrow? Am I the human equivalent of a pug??

I hated this torture contraption! My head hurt so much when I had to turn the key. But was crazy how it made space to have straight teeth

I had one and was not painful at all just a lot of pressure after turning the key. But did wonders on my breathing and now I’m a registered dental hygienist.
