Thanks for explaining, I’ve never seen them used over here, they tend to treat underbites with twin block braces once they’re teenager instead.Edenberry wrote:Yes, those are spacers. My daughter was 8 years old when she was fitted for an expander. They put the spacers on first so that when the expander is made it will fit where the spacers were. He might be getting an expander. That's very common now for younger kids. It's easier to reshape their mouths while they're young if they have an over/underbite.sparklyfluff wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2020 7:03 am
What is all that metal at the back of Ollie’s mouth? Bryan is claiming spacers in the comments when someone asked but I’ve never heard of or seen these before?
