Currently I have separators on my molars so I can have enough space for an expander. But I noticed that one of my molars has shifted a lot to the side where it’s uncomfortable to eat or bite down. It doesn’t hurt but i feel a lot of discomfort Is that normal?-

No, this is not normal and should most likely be checked out by your orthodontist. I am familiar with the discomfort of expanders for teeth, but they only hurt when they were being tightened. I am not very familiar with how they actually work because I am not a professional, but going off my own experience, this is not normal. I would recommend getting this checked by a medical professional.

I'm really sorry you are hurting though! I hope it gets fixed!
