Retainers
Protecting Your New Smile for the Long Haul
After orthodontic treatment, retainers ensure your teeth stay in their new, aligned positions. We offer removable and fixed options to fit your comfort and compliance needs.
Hawley Retainers
These traditional wire-and-acrylic retainers are adjustable and durable. They allow natural contact between teeth and are easy to clean and maintain.
Essix Retainer
Made from clear plastic, this retainer resembles a thin aligner tray. It’s discreet, removable, and ideal for patients who want a subtle post-treatment option.
Fixed Retainer (Lingual Bar)
Bonded behind the teeth, this permanent retainer holds alignment long-term without daily effort. It’s ideal for lower front teeth that are prone to shifting.
What to Expect
Your retainer will be fitted immediately after orthodontic treatment.
- Impressions or scans taken for fabrication
- Removable retainers delivered and reviewed
- Fixed retainers bonded behind the teeth
Time Spent: 30 to 60 minutes
Aftercare for Retainers
Proper care extends the life of your retainer and keeps your smile intact.
- Wear removable retainers as prescribed
- Clean daily with a soft brush and mild soap
- Avoid extreme heat that can warp plastic retainers
- Attend follow-up visits for adjustments or rebonding

Frequently Asked Questions
An orthodontist is a dental specialist who diagnoses, prevents, and treats misaligned teeth and jaws. They use braces, clear aligners, and other appliances to correct bite issues and improve oral function and aesthetics.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first checkup by age 7. However, teens and adults can benefit from orthodontic care at any age depending on the condition of their teeth and jaw.
In most cases, you don’t need a referral to schedule a consultation with an orthodontist. However, your general dentist may suggest a referral if they notice bite or alignment issues during a routine checkup.
Orthodontic treatment can last anywhere from 12 to 36 months, depending on the complexity of the case. Consistent follow-up visits and good oral hygiene can help keep treatment on track.
Options include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces (placed behind the teeth), and clear aligners like Invisalign. Your orthodontist will recommend the best type based on your specific needs and lifestyle.
