Retainers & Post-Treatment Care

What Are Retainers?

After completing orthodontic treatment with braces or aligners, your teeth need support to maintain their new positions. Retainers are custom-made devices designed to keep your teeth in place and prevent them from shifting back. They are an essential part of achieving long-term results and preserving your investment in your smile.

Importance of Post-Treatment Care

Proper post-treatment care ensures your teeth remain straight and healthy after orthodontic treatment:

  • Prevent Relapse: Teeth naturally tend to shift after braces are removed. Retainers prevent this movement.

  • Maintain Oral Health: Regular check-ups and proper hygiene reduce the risk of cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues.

  • Preserve Your Smile: Post-treatment care ensures your smile stays as perfect as the day your braces came off.
