Birbe Clinic, your clinic for the correction of narrow palate with Invisalign in Barcelona
Oral health is essential to ensure our quality of life, and at Birbe Clinic we want to help you. Narrow palate, also known as ogival palate, is one of the most common oral problems among children. This pathology occurs when the bone of the upper jaw is narrower than the jaw, creating a posterior crossbite. The opposite is correct, i.e. the upper jaw is wider than the mandible so that the mouth functions correctly.
Although narrow palate is a very common problem in children, it can also affect adults. The causes of this pathology are the prolonged use of dummies, the habit of children to sucking their thumbs, and the difficulty of breathing through the nose that some people have due to vegetations or deviation of the nasal septum, among others.
When a patient, adult or child, comes to our clinic for a narrow palate the common symptoms are: difficulty biting, sometimes difficulty breathing through the nose, snoring at night and crowded or crooked teeth.
Narrow palate with Invisalign - consequences
In healthy mouths, the tongue continuously presses on the palate, making the shape of the palate correct. However, in patients suffering from a narrow palate, the tongue is not in contact with the palate, not developing in the correct way and causing an oral deformity.
The consequences of this deformation can be: occlusal problems, such as crossbite or lateral crossbite, crooked teeth and/or crowding of the teeth. This means that both children and adults affected have a smile that is unsightly and not very functional.
However, at Birbe Clinic we bring you good news, as there are treatments to correct the narrow palate, such as Invisalign, which can solve this problem and help you recover your lost smile.
Narrow palate with Invisalign: treatments
Normally, the pathology of a narrow palate is detected in the consultation of a dentist or pediatric dentist. Firstly, a study will be carried out to diagnose the problem and determine the best solution for each patient. Depending on the case, correcting the narrow palate pathology with Invisalign becomes the best option.

How to correct a narrow palate with Invisalign?
Once the diagnosis has been made, if it is detected that the middle raphe of the palate is still open, this problem can be solved with Invisalign orthodontic treatment. How? By expanding the inside of the mouth and moving the teeth so that the functionality of the mouth is correct. However, if the problem has to do with the bones and not only with malposition of the teeth, this cannot be solved simply with an Invisalign narrow palate treatment, but it will be necessary to combine orthodontics with surgery to achieve the best results. Palate expansion surgery is called SARPE (Surgically Assisted Palatal Expansion) and if the expansion is performed with skeletal anchorage screws, it is called MARPE (Maxillary Anchored Rapid Palatal Expansion).In any case, the most important thing is to see a specialist for a personalized diagnosis and to find the most appropriate treatment.
How long does treatment of a narrow palate with Invisalign last?
As with other treatments and pathologies, the estimated treatment time for a narrow palate with Invisalign will depend on the case of each patient. The estimated time will be assessed at the time of diagnosis and during follow-up visits once treatment has begun.
