Do I Need a Retainer After Invisalign?
Watch this video by Dr. Bruce Fine, an experienced New Jersey implant dentist, as he explains why a dental retainer is a necessary part of the alignment process.
Once your teeth have been properly aligned, whether through Invisalign or braces, it becomes essential to use a retainer. The advantage of a retainer is that you only need to wear it while you sleep, and it plays a crucial role in maintaining the alignment of your teeth. Additionally, if you happen to be a teeth clencher or grinder, the retainer provides protective benefits by preventing potential damage that can result from these habits. Clenching and grinding can lead to significant tooth damage, including fractures. Retainers are designed for comfort, making them easy to wear, and they serve as a safeguard against any future dental issues.
