Retainers hold your teeth in their new alignment, preventing them from shifting back to their original crooked positions. Consistently wearing your retainers as instructed by your orthodontist allows you to enjoy the long-lasting benefits of your beautifully straight smile.
Prevents Teeth Crowding and Relapse
By wearing your retainers as recommended, you can ensure that your teeth stay properly aligned and prevent the risk of crowding or other orthodontic issues from occurring in the future.

Retainers serve as a protective shield for your investment in orthodontic treatment. After undergoing the time and effort to achieve a straight smile, wearing retainers ensures that your smile remains beautiful and healthy in the long run.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for my retainer at home?

Caring for your retainer is essential to maintain its effectiveness and prolong its lifespan. To keep your retainer clean, gently brush it with a soft toothbrush and mild soap or non-abrasive toothpaste. Rinse it thoroughly with lukewarm water before placing it back in your mouth. Avoid exposing your retainer to excessive heat or boiling water, as it can distort its shape. Remember to store your retainer in its designated case when not in use to protect it from damage or loss.
How do I keep my teeth straight after I get orthodontic treatment?
After completing your orthodontic treatment, it's important to follow our orthodontist's instructions to maintain the results. This typically involves wearing your retainer as prescribed, which may be full-time initially, and then transitioning to wearing it only at night. Additionally, practicing good oral hygiene, including regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, is crucial to keep your teeth healthy and prevent any shifting.
How can I make sure my teeth don't shift back?
Make sure to diligently follow the post-treatment guidelines provided by our orthodontists. This includes wearing your retainer as instructed, attending scheduled follow-up appointments, and practicing good oral hygiene. It's important to understand that some natural shifting may occur over time, but consistent retainer use and maintaining a stable oral care routine will help minimize any significant changes. If you have any concerns or notice any shifts in your teeth, schedule a visit with our orthodontists for guidance and adjustments if necessary.
