Orthodontic treatment is a significant investment of both time and money. After months or even years of wearing braces or clear aligners, patients are often thrilled to finally have straight, healthy teeth. However, maintaining those results requires an ongoing commitment to oral health, including wearing a retainer as directed by your orthodontist. At Premier Dental of Canfield, we often see patients seeking Invisalign treatment because they didn't wear a retainer after previous orthodontic treatment, causing their teeth to shift back to their original position.
Invisalign is a highly customizable treatment option, and Invisalign retainers are no exception. Each retainer is custom-made to fit the unique shape of your teeth and gums, ensuring a comfortable fit. Your Premier dentist will create a custom Invisalign retainer for you to wear while you sleep. This retainer is designed to keep your teeth in place after you finish your Invisalign or Invisalign Go treatment, preventing them from shifting back to their original position. By using an Invisalign retainer, you can maintain the results of your hard work wearing, cleaning, and maintaining your Invisalign aligners.
At Premier Dental of Canfield, our team will provide detailed instructions for caring for your Invisalign retainer, including how to clean it, how long to wear it each day, and what to do if you lose it. Proper care of your retainer is essential to ensuring its effectiveness and longevity.
Having straight teeth isn't just about achieving a more attractive smile; it also has significant health benefits. Correcting an abnormal bite can prevent a variety of oral health issues, including tooth decay, gum disease, tooth loss, speech problems, and jaw pain. By wearing your Invisalign retainer as directed, you can maintain the results of your orthodontic treatment and avoid these common dental issues associated with misaligned teeth.
If you're considering Invisalign treatment, you'll be happy to know that it takes a modern approach to straightening teeth. Instead of metal brackets and wires, Invisalign uses a series of custom-made aligner trays that gradually shift your teeth into place. The aligners are made of smooth, comfortable, and virtually invisible plastic, so most people won't even know you're wearing them. You'll switch to a new set of aligners every few weeks until your treatment is complete, achieving a great smile with little disruption to your daily life.
