At Family Dent dentistry, an orthodontist selects the optimal type of retention individually for each patient, taking into account the bite characteristics, age and results of the treatment.
Why is retention treatment needed?
After the completion of active orthodontic treatment, the bone tissue and ligamentous apparatus of the teeth need time to fully adapt to the new position of the teeth. It is the retention period that allows you to:
- consolidate the result of the treatment;
- prevent tooth displacement;
- maintain the correct bite;
- maintain the aesthetics of the smile for many years.
Types of retention devices
A fixed retainer is a thin wire structure that is fixed to the inner surface of the front teeth and is invisible to others.
Removable retention caps are transparent individual caps that are worn according to the scheme recommended by the doctor, mainly at night.
In some cases, a combination of a fixed retainer and a retention cap is used to achieve maximum results.
How long does the retention period last?
The duration of retention treatment is determined individually. In most cases, retainers must be worn for several years, and sometimes much longer to maintain a stable result.
Recommendations during retention treatment:
- regularly undergo check-ups with an orthodontist;
- carefully observe oral hygiene;
- do not skip the recommended regimen of wearing the caps;
- if the retainer is damaged, consult a doctor immediately.
Advantages of treatment at Family Dent
- individual approach to each patient;
