Oshetski Orthodontics Common Problems

The page is provided as a service to Oshetski Orthodontics patients and friends in order to assist them with some of the most common problems that orthodontic patients experience.  Check this page regularly for updates.

Use of the Rapid Palatal Expander

The correct use of the expander is one of the most commonly asked questions we hear in the office.  The expander is a simple device which widens patients upper arch width. The appliance corrects malocclusion, improves nasal breathing, improves facial aesthetics and creates additional space for future tooth eruption/alignment.  Periodic adjustments must be made until the required width has been achieved. 

The Oshetski Orthodontics staff welcome the opportunity to assist you and are pleased to answer
your questions.
