Average cost of facemask - $40 - £25
Now, that weve ordered all this stuff, we would need an orthodontist to apply it.
MSE, is a 90 day, 90 turns treatment.
Some questions if anyone can answer as im not sure.
1: Would you need a maxillofacial surgeon on top of an orthodontist to apply MSE on your palate?
2: If you purchase the starter kit for 12mm to say, would you need to buy it again if you were to do to mse for a second time?
3: Can you turn MSE yourself, or does an ortho have to do it?
4. Does anyone know where you can buy msdo?
5: After MSE has finished, could you get DNA from your ortho and connect the same facemask to it, as DNA slowly expands, you could connect that with the facemask over a 1-2 year period for more forward and upward maxillary gains?
