Love my Ortho - thanks Senestraro! The techs and doctor are always efficient and made my journey to finally getting Invisalign easy and manageable.

My daughter (8 y/o) got her braces, and an expander here. She said they answered all her questions, and helped her feel calm through the whole experience. They are super welcoming and have fun incentives for being at scheduled appointments. She says they did a great job!
I also appreciate their electronic communication (texts) making it easier to deal with questions during the work day.
I'll be getting my aligners there in two weeks!

Benefits of Wearing a Retainer After Braces Removal

After going through the process of getting braces and finally having them removed, it is crucial to follow up with wearing a retainer. Retainers help to maintain the alignment of your teeth and prevent them from shifting back to their original position. By wearing a retainer as directed by your orthodontist, you can ensure that your smile stays straight and beautiful for years to come.

In addition to preserving the results of your orthodontic treatment, wearing a retainer can also help improve the function of your bite. By keeping your teeth in their proper positions, a retainer can prevent issues such as jaw pain and difficulty chewing. Overall, wearing a retainer after braces removal is essential for both the appearance and function of your smile.
