At Amber Dental, we understand the importance of maintaining the alignment of your teeth, whether you've recently had braces or need assistance in preventing orthodontic issues. Orthodontic retainers, including space maintainers, play a crucial role in ensuring your teeth stay in their desired positions while allowing surrounding gums and bone to adjust. Whether you're in need of a retainer before or after orthodontic treatment, we're here to provide you with the care and guidance you need.
There are several types of retainers available, each with its own advantages:
It's natural to experience some adjustments when you first start wearing a retainer. You may produce extra saliva, find it difficult to speak clearly, or notice minor changes in your speech patterns. These effects typically diminish as you become accustomed to wearing your retainer regularly.
Proper care and maintenance of your retainer are essential to ensure its effectiveness and longevity. Most removable retainers come with a protective case to keep them safe when not in use. Additionally, regular cleaning and gentle brushing of your retainer will help prevent tartar build-up and maintain good oral hygiene.
If you have questions about orthodontic retainers or need to schedule an appointment with Dr. Agnes Cybulski, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at (519) 759-7190. Our practice is conveniently located at 32 West Street in Brantford, ON, making it easy for you to access the care you need.
