Retainers for straightening teeth in Odessa

Installation of retainers for teeth is sometimes a necessary procedure that patients need after removing braces or caps. Retention of teeth is a diagnosis made by an orthodontist after a course of wearing braces. Retainers are placed so that after the removal of the braces there is no reverse return of the dentition. In fact, retainers are no longer needed to straighten the teeth, but to prevent the teeth from shifting after they are released from the orthodontic systems. The very procedure of appointment and installation requires great attention from the orthodontist dentist, since this is an important stage of rehabilitation. If you are planning to remove braces or you need to install or remove retainers, please contact our specialists at the dental clinic "Asteria" in Odessa, which is located at st. Topolevaya 14/1 (Tairovo district).

Types of retainers

There are both removable and non-removable designs. Removable in this case, there are two types in the form of transparent plates or caps and in the form of positioners.

Retainer caps must be worn at all times and are only allowed to be removed during meals, after thoroughly brushing your teeth after each meal. Positioners are also mouthguard retainers, only for two jaws, so they are only worn when sleeping.

Fixed retainers are the most popular and widespread type. They are a thin metal wire running along the inner side of the dentition. Fixed retainers are not visible to others and do not require special care, but their installation is possible if there were no extracted teeth in the row.

What are retainers made of?

Fixed structures are made of special metal wire used in dentistry. Retainer caps and positioners are made of polymer materials.

 

What happens if you don't wear retainers?

After removing the braces, there is a high probability that the teeth may return to their original state after being exposed to pressure. In other words, a course on teeth straightening carried out for a long time may turn out to be in vain.

 

How do I remove the retainers?

The retainer caps and positioners can be easily removed on their own, since it is a removable structure, but to remove the wire metal retainers, you need to contact your orthodontist attending physician.

Installation of retainers in the dental clinic "Asteria"

In order to install removable retainers, you must first contact your orthodontist attending physician. The procedure for taking an impression of the teeth is carried out, for the further manufacture of a mouthguard or positioner. The cost of retainers can be clarified before they are manufactured. Further, the specialist determines the course and further examination, sending the patient with the necessary recommendations for wearing removable retainers.

For the introduction of non-removable retainers, a snapshot of the dentition is carried out in the same way and an examination is carried out. On the basis of the impression, a model of the patient's jaw is made, according to which a structure is made from a thin twisted wire. On a subsequent visit to the dental clinic, the finished reniter is placed on the inside of the teeth, which is not visible to others.

Terms of wearing

Retainers mouthguards, positioners, wire - are worn strictly according to the prescription of the attending physician orthodontist. Depending on how successfully the preliminary alignment of the teeth with braces was carried out, the period of wearing the retainers will also depend. As a rule, the period of wearing retainers is equal to two periods of wearing the braces themselves. That is, if you have had the bracket system for 1.5 years, then retainers are prescribed for 3 years.

How to care

  • When using installed fixed retainers, the upper surface of the teeth is gently cleaned to avoid damage to the structure. Flossing will also work.
  • The removable mouthguard retainers can be removed and, accordingly, the teeth and mouth can be cleaned separately after each meal and the retainers can be cleaned separately. To store positioners and aligners, you must also use a separate container with a special solution, in which you need to place the retainers when not in use.

Cost and types of payment

The cost of manufacturing and installing retainers depends on a huge number of factors that are individual for each patient. Also, the cost depends on the type of retainers assigned for installation. If you have installed non-removable retainers in another place, the Asteria Dental Clinic will not refuse an appointment and will carry out all the necessary procedures for removing the retainers. You can pay for all the services of orthodontists both in cash and non-cash. We will be glad to see you at the reception at the address: Odessa, st. Topoleva 14/1 (Tairovo district)
