"Hey, Dr. Green! What's the deal with retainers?"

If you've recently completed treatment at Green Orthodontics, we’d like to congratulate you! Now that your braces have been removed, Dr. Green will provide—or has provided you—with retainers.

After braces are removed, Dr. Green and our staff will tell you that teeth may shift out of position if they are not stabilized. Retainers, however, always provide that stabilization. They are designed to hold teeth in their corrected, ideal positions until the bones and gums adapt to the treatment changes. Wearing retainers exactly as instructed by Dr. Green is the best insurance that the treatment improvements last for a lifetime.

And don't worry, our retainer deals are awesome! Dr. Green offers half off retainers to his patients who lose them.

To learn more about the advantages of wearing retainers after your orthodontic treatment at Green Orthodontics, please read this article about night retainers from KidsHealth or give us a call! We hope you're having a GREAT summer!
