Anna5:
Hello!

Here is a picture of my palate... Does it look VERY narrow to you or just ok?
Thanks for your opinions!

Modigliani:
Looks fine to me.

notrain:
you have an ogival (high palatal vault and narrow) palate.

Anna5:
Thanks! I always thought that my palate is a bit too narrow, but my ortho and surgeon say it is ok/ doesn't warrant surgery anymore since my bite is good....

needadvancement:
Your teeth are looking good.

Mine is quite narrow too, what I don't understand is how I still developed a wide jaw and face. I thought palate width is important in horizontal development of the skull. Could someone chime in on this please?
