Finally, your braces have been removed and your smile is beautiful, straight, and best of all, metal-free! Or you have completed your sets of aligners and now your teeth look amazing! Your orthodontic journey, however, isn't quite completed. To keep your smile looking its best, you'll have to wear a retainer to preserve and stabilize your results.
Retainers are needed to control or limit potential changes in tooth position. They hold teeth in their correct alignment while the surrounding gums, bone, and muscle adjust to the new positioning of your teeth.
Constructed from durable acrylic shaped to fit the roof of your mouth, connected to a custom-fit wire that wraps around the front of your teeth. These retainers are durable, fully adjustable by the orthodontist, and allow your teeth to touch naturally.
Transparent, vacuum-formed plastic trays that fit snugly over all your teeth. Since they are clear, removable, and highly aesthetic, they offer a comfortable and discrete option for daily wear.
A small, custom-shaped wire bonded directly behind the front teeth (lingual side). Because it is permanently fixed, it prevents relapse and movement 24/7 without needing patient compliance.
