How Important Are Retainers? Will Your Teeth REALLY Shift? 🦷

Yes! your teeth can shift after braces or Invisalign! 😳 Retainers help hold your teeth in their new positions while the surrounding bone and tissues adjust, and they help prevent unwanted movement over time.

Think of it this way: braces move your teeth, retainers help keep them there. ✨

Always follow the retainer schedule recommended by your dentist or orthodontist.
