Invisalign Palatal Expander vs. traditional expander

First introduced in the 1950s, traditional palatal expanders work by inserting a tiny key into a center hole and cranking the appliance wider every day. The process is difficult and stressful, for kids and parents—so we created a better way.

How does the Invisalign Palatal Expander work?

Less painful,1 but just as effective.2 Now that’s innovation.

Using a series of 3D-printed expanders that gradually widen to create space for adult teeth, the Invisalign Palatal Expander System gives kids the orthodontic care they need, without you having to manually crank open the expander every day. That means fewer tears, less anxiety,1 and a more positive experience overall.1
