After braces or aligners, your teeth naturally want to shift back. Retainers are essential for maintaining your results—especially in the first 6–12 months post-treatment.
In Cary, we see adults and teens alike come in asking: Do I still need to wear my retainer? The answer is yes—and we’re here to make sure you’re set up for long-term success.
Dr. Nishant Patel helps patients stay confident long after treatment ends. He’ll review your case, recommend the best type of retainer, and make sure you’re clear on how to use it—and how to get a replacement if needed.
Whether you just finished braces or lost your old retainer, we’ve got you.
