Retainer Wear & Care

Let's Get Started

Here to help, even after you've finished treatment.

Wear your retainers 24 hours a day for 12 weeks; remove them for eating, brushing, and sports. You will then wear them at nighttime only, unless otherwise instructed. Keep your retainers clean by soaking them daily in luke warm soapy water for a minute or two and then rinse the retainers. DO NOT USE TOOTHPASTE, DENTURE CLEANER OR MOUTH WASH.

What You Should Know

Keep retainers in the retainer case provided when not wearing. This will lessen the chance of a lost retainer. If retainers are lost or broken, call our office immediately. There will be a fee charged for replacing a retainer, but this is better than rebracing teeth that may move.
