Retainers
A retainer is a dental appliance that keeps teeth in place after orthodontic treatment. There are many types of retainers, so it cannot be very clear to know which one to buy. This article will help you decide which retainer is suitable for you.
Your orthodontist will recommend the type of retainer best for you based on your needs. But there are a few things you should keep in mind when choosing a retainer.
The first thing to consider is the material. There are two main types of retainers: clear and metal. Clear retainers are made of plastic and are virtually invisible when worn. Metal retainers are made of wire and may be visible when worn. You should also consider how often you need to wear the retainer. Some retainers must be worn all the time, while others must only be worn at night.
