What is the Retainers for Life Protection Plan?

Retainers for Life is a comprehensive plan that has partnered with Wood Orthodontics that provides patients with a lifetime replacement retainer guarantee. Through this partner program, patients receive custom replacement retainers, ensuring low cost, ongoing maintenance of their beautifully aligned smiles.

Why Wear a Retainer After Orthodontic Treatment?

After undergoing orthodontic treatment, wearing a retainer is crucial to prevent the teeth from shifting back to their original positions. The retainer helps maintain the results achieved during treatment and ensures that your investment in a straighter smile remains intact for years.

What Causes Teeth to Shift?

Teeth can shift over time due to various factors, including natural growth and aging, changes in the jawbone structure, and habitual behaviors such as teeth grinding or tongue thrusting. Without proper retention, the teeth may gradually revert to their pre-treatment positions, compromising the results of orthodontic treatment.

How to Care for Your Retainer

Caring for your retainer is essential to ensure its effectiveness and longevity. Here are some tips for proper retainer maintenance:

1. Cleanliness: Regularly clean your retainer using a soft toothbrush and mild soap or denture cleaner. Avoid using hot water, as it can distort the retainer’s shape.
2. Storage: When not in use, store your retainer in its case to protect it from damage or loss. Please keep it away from pets and small children who may mistake it for a toy.
3. Avoiding Damage: Refrain from exposing your retainer to excessive heat or pressure, which can cause warping or breakage. Additionally, avoid chewing on hard or sticky foods while wearing your retainer to prevent damage.
