Answer 9

definitely palate expander. spacers dont compare to the pain of a palate expander. but that's just my experience. i currently have a palate expander, and i had spacers before, and the spacers didnt even bother me after 3 days. however, the palate expander has been hurting since the day i got it on, a week ago.

Answer 10

honestly, spacers. palate expander hurt too and, but i the spacers are slightly worse.
