Not All Retainers Are the Same! đŠ·âš
After orthodontic treatment, maintaining your beautiful results is essential! A bonded retainer placed behind the upper and lower front teeth (from canine to canine) helps keep your smile straight and stable.
However, not all bonded retainers are created equalâand itâs important to understand your options! While they all serve the purpose of keeping your front teeth in position, there are key differences to consider:
đč Standard Bonded Retainers â These are simple metal wires applied behind the front teeth. While effective, they can feel bulky, uncomfortable against the tongue, and may accumulate tartar over time, increasing the risk of gingivitis.
đč Bespoke Bonded Retainers â Designed for enhanced comfort and aesthetics, these come in two options:
ïżœâ
Entwined Wire Retainer â Made from multiple intertwined wires for greater resilience. Custom-crafted in a dental lab, it follows the exact contour of your teeth, making it smoother, more comfortable, and less noticeable.
ïżœâ
Kevlar Fiber Retainer â A completely transparent, ultra-thin retainer that offers maximum comfort and aestheticsâvirtually invisible!
đ° Prices range from ÂŁ250 to ÂŁ650 per retainer.
