ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT

Orthodontic Retention

At our dental practice, we consider retention (maintenance) methods an integral part of our patients’ orthodontic treatment.Retention, after the orthodontic brace has been removed, is essential to keep the teeth aligned. You will be provided with:

  • fixed retainer wires, applied behind the front teeth on the upper and lower arches
  • removable clear retainers that cover the entire dental arch. Once treatment is complete, we recommend wearing the removable retainers at night. With this constant commitment it is certainly possible to protect the investment you have made in orthodontic treatment, keeping your teeth beautiful and healthy

WHY IS RETENTION SO IMPORTANT?

A significant number of adults who had orthodontic treatment during childhood or adolescence come to us later with relapses. As we get older, our teeth naturally move, so it is very important to preserve the position of the teeth to maintain the alignment achieved. Night-time retainers also protect the teeth of patients who grind their teeth (bruxism) and prevent any fillings from wearing down or chipping.

We want to do everything possible to keep your teeth in their new straight and harmonious position.
