Yes, a lot of times you'll get the expander before your braces, just so you get used to it and so the teeth are ready for braces. Many people, in their early stages of braces have both an expander and braces,.

Can you have popcorn if you have your expander in?

It depends if you have braces on yet. I have an expander right now, but I have bottom braces. There's not much of a problem with the expander and popcorn, unless you get an unpopped kernel up there, which is pretty tricky to get out. As long as you're careful not to let that happen, and you're extra-careful if you have braces, then yes, you should be able to have popcorn.


When you get a palate expander do you have to get braces after?

Yes, typically after receiving a palate expander, patients often need braces. The expander is used to widen the upper jaw, creating more space for teeth alignment. Once the expansion is complete, braces are usually applied to straighten and properly align the teeth. This combination helps achieve optimal results for dental alignment and bite correction.

How can you convince your dentist to give you braces?

Complain about your teeth You dont. You go to the orthodontist. Actually, it's only NEEDED if you have an overbite or a crossbite or an under bite. Or if you have crooked teeth. Braces are VERY expensive, and I tell you, they are NOT fun to have! You cant eat sugar for 6 weeks or else you teeth will rot where they glued the square on.
