To maintain the results of your orthodontic treatment and keep your smile looking its best, wearing a retainer is essential. Retainers help control and prevent potential changes in tooth position, ensuring your teeth remain aligned as surrounding tissues adapt to their new arrangement.
Follow Dr. DeCamps’ guidance on wearing your retainers, typically around the clock, except when eating, brushing your teeth, or engaging in sports. As your bite stabilizes, she will establish a personalized retainer wear schedule for you.
Remember to bring your retainers to all retainer check appointments to ensure they continue to fit properly and effectively maintain your smile alignment.
