Retainers Included With Orthodontic Treatment
Transforming your teeth into a smile you’re proud to show off starts with braces or Invisalign, but don’t forget – to make sure your smile lasts a lifetime, you will need to wear a retainer after treatment ends. We want you to keep your beautiful smile, and we do that by including a retainer with your orthodontic treatment. Options for retainers include any combination of fixed (permanent) retainers, clear removable retainers, or traditional Hawley retainers. Want to know more?
