Your Secret Weapon For Long-Term Success
You’ve put in the work, and now your smile is beautiful, straight, and totally metal-free. We are so proud of what you’ve achieved and want to make sure your smile stays exactly where we put it with one last strategic step: orthodontic retention. Think of your retainer as the anchor that keeps your results precision-perfect while your gums and teeth settle into their new home. We’re here at every step to make sure your transition is smooth and easy.
Custom-Made Just For You
Because your smile is unique, your retainer is customized to fit you perfectly. We have multiple options to choose from:
Vivera™ Retainers
If you loved the look of clear aligners, you’ll love Vivera retainers. These are nearly invisible, removable, and made from a customized digital scan of your brand-new smile. They are an aesthetic way to achieve your goals now and keep them for life.
Traditional Removable Retainers
This classic design uses a slim metal wire and a comfortable acrylic arch that sits right against the roof of your mouth. Our experts love these because the wires can be adjusted with precision to keep those front teeth in their correct alignment.
Fixed Bonded Retainers
Want one less thing to think about? A fixed retainer is a thin wire bonded right behind your teeth. It’s a permanent, strategic way to ensure your teeth never move, and since it’s hidden in the back, no one will even know it’s there.
Pro-Tips For Your Victory Lap
We want to make this process as effortless as possible for you. Here’s some additional information on your new gear:
- Freedom To Eat And Clean: With removable retainers, you can take them out for meals and your brushing routine. Just remember to keep yours in its case whenever it’s not in your mouth.
- Effortless Stability: Fixed retainers are great because you never have to worry about how many hours a day you’re wearing them.
- A Little Extra Love: Teeth with fixed retainers just need a tiny bit of extra attention during flossing. We’ll show you how to use a floss threader to keep those small spaces clean.
- Nighttime for your Lifetime: Wear your retainer every night — yes, every night for the rest of your life — to lock in those hard-earned results.
Lifetime Replacement Retainers
Retainer accidents happen: Lost retainers, melted retainers left in hot cars, retainers chewed up by dogs — we've seen it all over the years. That's why we have your back when it comes to replacing them. Instead of paying full price for retainer replacements — which can be hundreds of dollars — you (or mom and dad) only pay a small co-pay. Easy! We'll tell you all about it during your first appointment.
