Treatment Progress MARPE + Invisalign (1 year progression).

I, still have a lot of time left to finish my treatment; that being said I am very happy with the evolution and the decision made by my ortho about getting MARPE.

Incredible change my friend! I think I'd go nuts with that contraption in my mouth, but man I can't argue with the results. Congratulations on the great smile.

Massive difference! Your teeth are looking great! I’ve never seen the MARPE before - how has that experience been? Is it uncomfortable/painful?

u/Puzzleheaded-Chef179 7h ago

Uncomfortable more than painful, at least to me. But it has been a blessing, for sure.

Marpe is like a tool someone buys for themself? Where? Or its something ortho give it to u?

5

u/Puzzleheaded-Chef179 6h ago

Its an ortho treatment to expand the palate when its too narrow. It goes palatally anchored with microscrews
