my doctor has told me that he will take these expanders out in 3 to 4 more weeks and then put invisalign. he said since i need 4 mm of space, he thinks my palate bone will be expanded in 4 to 6mm in 4 to 6 weeks. my question is once he takes expanders out wouldnt that make my palate bone(jaw) narrow again. he said invisalign also works as expanders so that wont happen. I just want to make sure that my doctor isnt making a irrationial decision by taking my expanders out in 6 weeks only. btw im 21
