[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the pp, the Window for an expander is short. You can’t do an expander at 14/15/16. Op - My son had a retainer expander that we turned w a key when it wasn’t in his mouth. Perhaps that might be an option? He could’ve done the more permanent one or the retainer and opted for retainer bc of fears. my daughter’s dental issue required the full expander. I’d ask them about the retainer option and if they say no, call around and see if others can do that on this situation. [/quote] OP here. This is what they had said we could do, so I’m surprised they’re now saying he’s getting the usual one with the key stick. I’d rather he wear it longer than go through anxiety every day. He’s had food issues too, so a device that causes trauma may cause him to lose weight he shouldn’t be losing at his age. [/quote]
