Thanks! I had my appointment this morning and my orthodontist took pity on me and didn't fit the expander as I've still haven't got my surgery date yet so that's a plus but I did have 2 brackets on my 2 front teeth with a spring between them to create a gap before surgery and I have temporarily got metal bands on 4 teeth to maintain the space until the expander is fitted.
