DNA appliance, braces, palatal expansion? (photos)

Question

Hi! I had metal braces and used an orthodontic headgear nightly when I was 12-13 years old. My teeth are straight, but I would like to broaden my smile by making my buccal corridor wider. Would this be possible? Would I be a good candidate for any treatment? I'm a 22 year old woman.

You have a crowded narrow maxilla with a very high palatal vault.  Ideally, you would have had expansion as a child.  The DNA Appliance is my first choice at your age.

As an adult the DNA Applance can give you 3 dimensional growth and creat a full wide healthy airway accompanied by a highly esthetic smile that fills your face and eliminates the dark buccal corridors,

The DNA Appliance will also improve your nasopharyngeal airway significantly which is good for better health and sleep.

Cases like yours can be improved with Braces,you will make your teeth look more nice and even but at the end you will have the same teeth with the same shape size and color,thats why if you want to have a really big change you should think about making a Smilemakeover with zyrcoina crowns or veneers,this will improve the shape size and even color,that will make you love your smile and have the results you are looking for.
