Achieve a Broader, Healthier Smile with MARPE & MSE Expanders at Blais Orthodontics in Scarsdale, NY

If you’ve been told that your upper jaw is too narrow for proper alignment, or if you struggle with breathing issues, a palatal expander may be the solution. At Blais Orthodontics, we specialize in advanced expansion techniques, including MARPE (Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expander) and MSE (Maxillary Skeletal Expander). These innovative devices help create space for proper alignment, improve airway function, and enhance facial aesthetics—especially for adults who thought expansion wasn’t an option!

What Are MARPE & MSE Expanders?

Traditional palatal expanders are commonly used in children and adolescents whose jaws are still growing. However, adult patients require a more advanced approach. MARPE and MSE expanders utilize small, strategically placed mini-screws (TADs) to gently separate the mid-palatal suture, stimulating bone growth and allowing for true skeletal expansion.

Benefits of MARPE & MSE Expanders

  • Non-surgical skeletal expansion – A great alternative to surgery for many adult patients
  • Improved breathing & nasal airflow – Can help with sleep apnea and snoring
  • Enhanced facial symmetry – Creates a broader, more balanced smile
  • Better orthodontic outcomes – Provides space for proper alignment, reducing crowding and crossbites

Who Is a Candidate for MARPE or MSE?

  • ✔️ Adults and older teens with a narrow upper jaw
  • ✔️ Patients with crossbites, crowding, or a deep palate
  • ✔️ Those experiencing breathing difficulties due to a constricted airway
  • ✔️ Individuals looking for a non-surgical approach to expansion
