Retainers: Protecting Your Smile for Life

Your new smile deserves to last a lifetime, and that’s where retainers come in.

After your braces or Invisalign treatment is complete, retainers help maintain your results and prevent teeth from shifting over time.

At Buffalo Grove Orthodontics, we use clear, custom-fit retainers made from precise digital scans, no goopy impressions needed! These durable retainers not only keep your teeth aligned, but also:

Protect against clenching and grinding
Double as whitening trays when paired with the Invisalign Professional Whitening System

We typically recommend wearing retainers full-time for the first 4 months, then switching to nighttime wear for life. One set of retainers is included with every full treatment plan.

Still have a permanent or old retainer? It’s time to upgrade!

New guidance recommends clear, custom-fit retainers for better health and comfort.

Why switch?

Easier brushing and flossing
Better long-term oral hygiene and overall health
FSA/HSA eligible expense

Whether you’re finishing orthodontic treatment now or completed it years ago, protecting your smile is always a smart move.
