Understanding Retainers

Understanding Retainers

A retainer is a device designed to keep your teeth in their straightened position after orthodontic treatment.
Retainers are made from clear plastic, acrylic, or wires that fit snugly over or behind the teeth. Their primary purpose is to minimize the natural tendency of teeth to revert to their original positions over time.

By wearing retainers as prescribed, patients can ensure the longevity of their orthodontic results, keeping their smiles straight and beautiful.
