Tooth retention, also known as orthodontic retention or tooth fixation, is a procedure used in orthodontics to stabilize teeth in a specific position. It is one of the methods of post-treatment maintenance to keep the teeth in proper alignment after completing orthodontic treatment. After the removal of orthodontic braces or wearing removable appliances (such as retainers), teeth can revert to their initial positions. Tooth retention ensures the stability of the teeth and helps prevent relapse, which is the return of teeth to an improper bite.
DG Dental Studio utilizes modern technologies and materials for tooth retention, guaranteeing high quality and durability. We collaborate with global manufacturers of dental equipment and materials to provide our patients with the best results.
Benefits of tooth retention:
- -Stability of orthodontic treatment results: Tooth retention helps prevent relapse, ensuring that the teeth maintain their corrected position after the removal of braces or removable appliances. It provides long-term stability of the corrected bite and sustains the results of orthodontic treatment.
- -Preservation of aesthetics: Tooth retention can be achieved using invisible retainers that are virtually unnoticeable when worn. This is especially important for patients who wish to maintain the aesthetic appearance of their teeth after braces treatment.
- -Convenience in wearing: Retainers can be fixed (permanent) or removable. Fixed retainers are attached to the teeth and remain in place for an extended period without the need for removal. Removable retainers can be used in cases where patients only need to wear them for a specific duration (e.g., during sleep). This provides convenience and comfort in wearing.
- -Protection against damage: Tooth retention helps prevent tooth damage by keeping them in a stable position. It helps avoid tooth wear, misalignment, or improper bite, which can affect their function and appearance.
