The retention of newly aligned teeth is an important step! Welcome, retainers!
Congratulations! You’ve finished your treatment! There’s just one step left: arrange an appointment at your nearest Impress clinic so that our dentists can check the results of your treatment.
When you attend that visit, the orthodontist will tell you the next steps, which could include a revision to ensure the final touches of your straight smile are achieved.
If your smile is good to go, retention is the aim, which is where the introduction of a retainer is going to be very important. It will require a further impression, or mould and a period of waiting time to have it made and delivered.
The focus is to wear your retainer for a specific period (usually overnight), to ensure your teeth don't revert to their original position.
