Do I have to wear a retainer? If so, for how long?

After your teeth have been moved into their proper position and the appliance has been removed, they are still quite malleable. Retainers will help stabilize the bite. They are worn full time the first year and then, only when you sleep during the second year. We will follow your treatment during this 2-year period. After this time, you become your own orthodontist and monitor your tooth alignment. You should wear your retainer as needed to maintain your result for a lifetime.
