After braces or Invisalign, retainers are essential to hold your teeth in their corrected positions permanently. Without a retainer, teeth will gradually drift back. Casa Dentique provides fixed and removable retainers fitted by Dr. Akhil Patil at the completion of every orthodontic case.
Orthodontic treatment moves teeth through bone — but once treatment ends, the surrounding periodontal ligament fibres that were stretched during movement exert a rebound force that tries to pull teeth back toward their original position. This is called relapse. A retainer counters this force and maintains the corrected position while the bone and soft tissue fully stabilise — a process that takes at least 12 months after treatment ends, and in reality continues throughout life.
A thin wire bonded to the back surface of the front teeth — completely invisible from the outside. Works continuously without any effort or compliance. Suitable for the lower front teeth in most cases.
A clear plastic retainer similar in appearance to an Invisalign tray — worn every night during sleep. Covers all teeth and is easy to clean. Requires discipline to use consistently.
