Retention

Retainer is a fixed or removable appliance worn after the braces are removed. A removable retainer attaches to your upper and/or lower teeth and holds them in their finished positions.

After you finish your active treatment you will be prescribed retainers which may be removable, fixed or a combination of both. Depending on your needs, Dr. Violet will recommend how long you will need to wear your retainers. It is very important that you keep your retainers clean and wear them as prescribed. This will influence your long term orthodontic results.

"I was surprised when my dentist suggested braces at my age of 61. I had never in my life considered or even thought about getting braces. Though Violet Orthodontics was across town, he encouraged me to go and talk with
Dr. Violet. I was so impressed with her enthusiasm and sincerity. We decided together that braces would be the right decision for me. I am now nearing the end of my treatment and I am amazed at how even and nice my teeth are."
