	What is a transpalatal arch? A transpalatal arch is a wire that fits along the roof of your mouth and is attached on both sides to bands on the molar teeth. How does a transpalatal arch work? The TPA is most often used to prevent the molar teeth from drifting forward, for example after a distalizing appliance or after bicuspid extractions. It can also be used as an active appliance to rotate or widen the molars, or to prevent the molar teeth from erupting throughout the course of orthodontic treatment. What can I expect with a transpalatal arch? The transpalatal arch is fixed in your mouth and can only be removed by your doctor. It stays in place for anywhere from a few months to the entire course of treatment.
