If you’ve recently completed orthodontic treatment through Invisalign or traditional braces, you’ll need to protect your investment with a retainer. Dr. Eric M. Meyer, DDS allows patients to choose from a removable retainer or a fixed retainer. A fixed retainer, also known as a bonded retainer, is applied to several teeth to help them stay in place. The type of retainer you choose will depend on your needs and preference.
Though a removable retainer is most common, patients don’t always remember to put them in. Meanwhile, a fixed retainer takes away the thought of remembering or forgetting to wear your retainer because it is bonded in place 24/7. A fixed retainer may take a little extra work to keep clean because it consists of a single wire that stretches across the back of several teeth. If you struggle with cleaning your fixed retainer, Dr. Eric M. Meyer, DDS can help you improve.
If you have questions or concerns regarding orthodontic options or retainer options, please give us a call.
