[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old has a palate expander now and her mouth closes normally - there is no obstruction. She eats completely normally although it has been gross helping her get food out of the expander since a lot gets stuck, and she makes this weird clicking noise when she tries to suck food out herself. I think the first 24 hours or so after getting the expander her mouth was sore and she ate softer foods, but we gave her Advil and she was back to normal within a couple days. She did eat a little slower at first since she had to chew more, which was actually a plus (but short lived). She did sound a little different at first but I was barely noticeable and not really a lisp. We all got used to it quickly.[/quote]
