Tads to close open bite

Hello,

I am 33 and have braces for the third time ( twice when I was younger) and now as an adult. I was told I needed a three piece lefort,but was unable to get insurance to cover it. So my ortho placed two tads on my top palate in hopes to close my bite....has anyone else had this or seen it to have permanent results.

Hi there!

How are you feeling with the TADs?

My cousin had tads and her bite closed really well. I hope it works for you!

I was sore for a couple days and doing much better now. However I feel like my bite is opening more...also my tmj seems to be returning.
