Retainers After Orthodontic Treatment
The retention phase is a crucial stage following orthodontic treatment, dedicated to maintaining the results achieved with braces. At Kendrick Orthodontics, once your braces are removed, we provide retainers to preserve the new alignment of your teeth. Without proper support, teeth can gradually shift back to their original positions.
This phase typically lasts at least six months, ensuring the full effectiveness of your orthodontic treatment. After this period, Dr. Kendrick will assess your progress and provide guidance on any further treatment needed to maintain optimal alignment. Retainers are essential for long-term success, helping you enjoy your new smile for years to come.
Keeping Your New Smile Straight
Retainers play a vital role in maintaining the results achieved by orthodontics, ensuring that teeth stay in their newly corrected positions. Available in various materials and styles, retainers can be tailored to meet different dental needs and personal preferences.
At Kendrick Orthodontics, we will help you choose the most suitable retainer based on your specific condition and preferences.
Our priority is to provide personalized orthodontic care that effectively addresses each patients needs. After orthodontic treatment is complete, teeth are particularly susceptible to shifting. Consistent use of retainers is essential to maximize the benefits of your care and prevent any undesired changes or relapse to previous positions.
By focusing on customized retention solutions, Kendrick Orthodontics ensures that you can enjoy the long-term success of your beautifully aligned smile.
