What is a Custom Teeth Retainer?

A custom clear retainer is a thin, transparent appliance that fits snugly over your teeth to hold them in place after orthodontic treatment. It helps maintain alignment, protects your investment, and reduces the chance of “relapse” (teeth slowly drifting back). Retainers are not designed for heavy grinding protection, that’s the job of a night guard.

How to choose thickness

• 1.0 mm – lowest profile and most “invisible” feel; great for nightly wear with minimal bulk.
  • 1.5 mm – adds durability and shape retention if you’re harder on retainers, clench occasionally, or want longer wear life.

What Retainers Provide

Alignment maintenance
Helps keep straightened teeth from shifting, preserving the results of braces or clear aligners.

Low-profile comfort
Slim, smooth, and transparent, designed to feel natural and stay discreet during wear.

Everyday practicality
Easy to pop in at night; can be worn daytime if your dentist/orthodontist recommends extra retention.

Keep In Mind:

Retainers hold teeth in place; they don’t protect against heavy grinding forces. If you grind or clench strongly, consider a night guard for protection, and use retainers as directed to maintain alignment.

Upper vs. lower, what should I pick?

Follow your orthodontist’s guidance. Many people wear both arches right after treatment and later shift to nighttime wear. If choosing one arch, pick the one most at risk of shifting (often the lower front teeth) or what your dentist/orthodontist recommends. Consistent wear matters most.

How to Care and when to replace

• Rinse after each use; brush gently with a soft brush and mild soap (avoid abrasive toothpaste).
  • Let them dry and store in a ventilated case; keep away from heat (hot water can warp them).
  • Avoid harsh chemicals and colored mouthwashes that can stain.
  • Replace if you notice cracks, warping, looseness, or if teeth start to feel “tight” when you put them in. Many users refresh retainers periodically to keep fit and clarity ideal.
