Expansion + Aligners for the Entire Family

One Family. Different Ages. Different Needs.

A narrow upper jaw can affect more than just how the teeth fit together. Maxillary development can influence dental crowding, bite relationships, tongue space, facial development, and the space available for the nasal airway.

But expansion is not the same for everyone.

A growing child, a teenager, and an adult have different anatomy and different treatment needs. That’s why the DOME approach is designed around age-appropriate expansion combined with coordinated tooth movement.

Start With Growth

DOMEMini is designed for younger children when growth and development provide an opportunity to address developing problems early.

Rather than waiting for all of the permanent teeth to erupt, treatment can focus on creating appropriate space and improving the relationship between the upper jaw, lower jaw, teeth, and surrounding soft tissues during growth.

Treatment may combine expansion with limited aligner therapy when appropriate.

The goal: improve the foundation while your child is still growing.

DOMETeen & DOMEzero

As the palatal sutures mature, expansion protocols shift from purely growth guidance to skeletally anchored and coordinated expansion.

Combining custom palatal expansion with clear aligners allows alignment and arch development to proceed simultaneously, optimizing both airway space and facial balance.
