Retainers: Your Key to a Lasting Smile

After achieving your desired smile with braces or aligners, retainers play a crucial role in maintaining your results. Retainers ensure that your teeth remain in their new, correct positions as your mouth adjusts. At Nejat Orthodontics, we provide personalized retainer solutions tailored to your specific needs, ensuring your smile stays confident and bright for years to come.

Hawley Retainers

Hawley retainers are a traditional choice, composed of a plastic base that fits the shape of your mouth, with a metal wire that holds your teeth in place. They are adjustable and highly durable, making them a reliable option for long-term use. Regular cleaning is essential to maintain their condition and effectiveness.

Essix Retainers

Essix retainers are made from clear plastic, providing a discreet way to keep your smile aligned. They resemble Invisalign aligners and are custom-made for a snug fit. While less noticeable, they require careful handling and regular replacement due to potential wear over time.

Fixed Retainers

Fixed retainers consist of a thin wire bonded behind the teeth, offering a permanent solution to prevent shifting. They are ideal for patients who prefer not to worry about removing and reinserting their retainers. Proper oral hygiene is crucial to prevent plaque buildup around the wire.

Vivera Retainers

Vivera retainers, crafted by Invisalign, are made from strong material to ensure durability. They are custom-made using 3D technology for a precise fit. Vivera retainers come in sets, allowing you to switch them out regularly to maintain optimal hygiene and effectiveness.
