To put it more simple: What are the odds that palate expansion (via a expander device) will impact the nasal cavity if expansion is performed shortly after DJS with CCW and posterior downgraft. Regarding the stability of the area, where the LF1 took place and the skull and the maxilla are now connected to the additional bone of the downgrafting.

I'm not convinced palate expansion is possible with stable results in adults, and might even cause complications to the tissue, etc. How old are you?

Try thinking in terms of getting the palate expander IF you need a wider palate for say a better smile like if you have buccal corridors hiding the back of your smile. If in addition to  it widening the palate it also helps nasal breathing than great.
