Q: can you get braces a week after getting a pallet expander on?

: So much depends on what your game plan is by your orthodontist. Some expand first then bracket, others put everything on and get everything moving all at once.

I have crowded teeth and they have some mobility. My orthodontist has said it is caused by pressure from crowding but with my regular brushing, it will not ever fall out. Should my teeth soon enough tighten a bit after I get braces and an expander?
