Retainers hold your teeth in the correct position after the braces come off. They are very important in the orthodontic treatment process. If you do not wear your retainer, your teeth have the opportunity to move back into their old position. Dr. Little will advise you on how long, how often and how much you need to wear your retainer. If your retainer pokes, does not stay in place, or will not go into place, please make an appointment as soon as possible. We have a wide variety of retainers to choose from.
