Retainers
A retainer is a custom-made device that helps maintain the new position of your teeth. If you don’t wear a retainer as directed by your orthodontist, your teeth may slowly move back toward their original position.
A retainer is a custom-made device that helps maintain the new position of your teeth. If you don’t wear a retainer as directed by your orthodontist, your teeth may slowly move back toward their original position.
Retainers are designed to hold your teeth in their newly acquired positions, preventing them from shifting back to their previous states.
Retainers can assist in reducing the tendency to clench the jaw or grind the teeth, especially during sleep, which can otherwise lead to pain and dental complications over time.
Retainers can act as a barrier, defending against habits like tongue thrusting that can inadvertently push teeth out of alignment.
With teeth securely held in their rightful places, cleaning between them becomes easier, resulting in improved oral hygiene. This reduces the risk of issues like cavities and gum disease.
Invisible retainers are made out of a clear plastic or resin material, making them less visible than traditional metal retainers.
Hawley retainers are made up of a metal frame surrounding the teeth and a clear plastic or acrylic shield covering the teeth.
A fixed bonded retainer is a wire that is permanently bonded at the backside of your teeth.

The general recommendation is to wear a retainer for at least 12 hours per day for most people. However, it’s essential to speak with your dentist to find out what’s best for you. Some people may need to wear their retainer all the time, while others may only need to wear it at night.
The type of retainer you get depends on how much wear and tear it will see, how often you will need to wear it, and how comfortable you feel. Talk to your dentist about which type of retainer is best for you.

Dr. Kumra is outstanding and his staff is wonderful. I went in for braces. Dr Kumra was very knowledgeable and detailed when explaining the process of getting braces. From the beginning Dr. Kumra and his staff were very professional. They were very flexible with appointments. When I came in my for an appointment at 8:30am, I was seen at 8:30 am. No waiting around an additional 10-15 mins. I was in in out and now i have a perfect set of braces!
Dr. Kumra and his entire staff are lovely human beings who make you feel welcome and comfortable every time you visit. It was a pleasure to show up to appointments…which is an unusual thing to say about any visit to a doctor’s office! I was very happy with my Invisalign treatment. If you are looking for an orthodontist, look no further! Dr. Kumra is the best around.
Dr. Kumra and his staff are professional, kind, accommodating, and extremely helpful. I felt like my time was highly valued. Unlike other ortho offices I have been to, there was hardly any wait time here. I cannot recommend the quality of the services here enough!
