Re: Anybody had mandibular expansion?

[Guest guest]

I have not heard of SARPE for the lower jaw. I did however have a

widening arch put in for my lower teeth, this pushed them apart and I

gained about 6 mm between my lower teeth. It was slightly painful the

day after having it adjusted. I believe I had it adjusted 3 times.
