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.

Different Types of Retainers Offered at Kumra Orthodontics

Invisible Retainers

Invisible retainers are made out of a clear plastic or resin material, making them less visible than traditional metal retainers.

Hawley Retainers

Hawley retainers are made up of a metal frame surrounding the teeth and a clear plastic or acrylic shield covering the teeth.

Fixed Bonded Retainers

A fixed bonded retainer is a wire that is permanently bonded at the backside of your teeth. 

Benefits of Getting Retainers After Braces

Keeps Teeth in Line 

Your teeth may slowly drift back to their original position without a retainer.

Helps Avoid Clenching 

 Clenching or grinding your teeth can cause further dental problems down the road.

Defends Against Tounge Thrust

Wearing a retainer helps prevent the tongue from thrusting forward between the teeth, which can cause your smile to look uneven or overcrowded.

Gives Better Oral Health

 By keeping the teeth in their correct position, retainers reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.

How long do you have to wear a retainer?

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.

What type of retainer should I get?

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.
