What are Orthodontic retainers and how long will I have to wear them for?
When deciding whether to have Invisalign ® orthodontic treatment or not, don’t overlook the fact that you will need to wear dental retainers after your clear braces treatment has been completed. The chance of tooth alignment relapse after braces treatment (including Invisalign ®) has been completed is substantial, and even very likely, unless orthodontic retainers are worn as directed by your dentist. There are several different types of dental retainers that you and your dentist may choose to utilize for your retention phase.
