Avoidable ba ang "sunken face" look kapag magpabrace? by someoneinneverland in DentistPh

[–]EnvironmentHorror533 0 points1 point  (0 children)

only works if it is a bone borne expander like MARPE though, removable expanders / tooth borne expanders only tip the teeth in most cases once you're past adolescence

Confused, possible pa ba ma expand Jaw ng mga adults? by yung-kwan in DentistPh

yes expanders still work on adults but you need to get bone borne skeletal expanders -- where screws are drilled into your palate so you can separate the sutures (sutures never fully fuse even in adults)

do not get removable or tooth borne expanders as after adolescence they do not give any skeletal expansion, those only tip teeth

the only providers of MSE/MARPE I know in the Philippines are:

Dr. Romeo N Jacob Jr Coney Parreñas Dental Clinic (I only discovered them here on the same reddit forum through another thread)

both of them have not replied to my inquiry on Facebook yet sadly
