Children must have adult supervision when making impressions

Your teeth have been straightened, your smile is worth showing off, and your bite is where it needs to be.

Now it's time to pick a retainer to keep all of that work in place.

The custom-made clear orthodontic retainer is made from a crystal-clear material, so the device is hardly noticable to others. This means you can wear it to outings and social events. researchers found that consumers who wore clear orthodontic retainers felt greater benefit from the device, even when the Hawley retainer might be a better option. The "invisible" nature of the clear orthodontic retainers contribute to greater compliance with wearing the retainer consistently.

The clear orthodontic retainers are slightly more fragile than other types of retainers, but they are a good option for many people that want something that is less visible and more comfortable than traditional retainers. Clear orthodontic retainers have become an increasingly more popular choice nowadays because they hold the teeth in alignment very precisely, are very comfortable to wear, and are cheaper to replace.

Most people need to wear their retainers all day long in the initial weeks after their braces have been removed. Eventually, you’ll only need to wear your retainer at night. After a year, it might be recommend to transition to wearing your retainer a few times a week to maintain your results.

Nonetheless, if you’re looking for the best custom-made orthodontic retainer Provider around, Dental Lab Direct is the way to go! With Dental Lab Direct you can be sure that you’ll get top-notch service and high-quality results.

Retainer is a harder plastic and longer lasting retainer than the one I got from another online provider. There was a minor issue with the 1st order recieved, and customer service responded within hours and resolved it.

I have also ordered a backup set of retainers. I am very happy with the product quality and the company's customer service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear retainers are removable, custom-made from BPA-free, thermoplastic trays that fit snugly over your teeth to prevent them from shifting after orthodontic treatment. They are designed for both the upper and lower teeth.

No. Clear aligners are used to actively move teeth into a new position, while clear retainers are used to keep the teeth in their current position. A clear retainer is not designed to move teeth but rather to keep them in their optimal position.

The clear retainer is nearly invisible, which many people prefer. They do not use any metal wires, so they are often more comfortable and gentle against the inside of the mouth. Clear retainers are less bulky, which can lead to fewer speech issues and more consistent use compared to other retainers.

The first 3-6 months after your orthodontic treatment, you will most likely need to wear your retainer for 20 to 22 hours per day, only removing ot to eat, drink (except water) and clean your teeth. After the initial period you will typically transition to nighttime-only wear. For long-term results, many recommend wearing the retainer indefinitely a few nights a week, as teeth can naturally shift with time.

Rinse your retainer with lukewarm (never hot) water each time you remove them. Brush them with a soft brush gently using mild dish soap or a retainer cleaner. Do not use alcohol -based mouthwash, bleach, or hot water as these can warp the material.

You should replace your retainer if you notice it feels loose or doesn’t fit properly. If it has visible cracks your clear retainer will no longer be effective. If your clear retainer is discoloured or has an unpleasant smell even after cleaning it can indicate bacteria buildup. The normal lifespan of clear retainers is about 6 months to 3 years. Factors like improper care and oral habits such as teeth grinding can decrease its lifespan.
