Retainers after Braces

After completion of active orthodontological treatment the next important step starts – the period of retention when the special retention devices (retainers) are used. Retainers must be installed after braces for fixation of the obtained result up to the moment of  complete morphological and function reconstruction to avoid teeth displacement to the original position (protect from relapse).

How Long Do You Need to Wear the retention Device

Retention time is individual for each patient, it depends on many factors: the original occlusion pathology, the patient’s age, the state of the bone tissue and other aspects. You have to understand that this period may last for a long time because teeth displacement is a life-long process. A retention device is fixed on the teeth immediately after removal of orthodontological devices (braces, splints).

Dental Retainers: Removable and Non-Removable

Retention devices (retainers) are divided into removable and non-removable.

Removable retainers in aesthetic dentistry clinic PRIZMA have the form of a clear splint. Such retainer is put on the teeth for night and sometimes – in the day-time when you have free time.

Non-removable retainers in the form of thin wire are fixed by means of a special material (photopolymer) to the back surface of teeth (lingual or palatal one) which makes them invisible for people around you and insensible for patient. Non-removable retention device permanently stays in the patient’s mouth.

nd, of course, don’t forget about the planned prevention visit to the regular doctor once per 6 months for maintenance of the oral cavity health.
