Ask Dr. Caponera: what's the deal with retainers?

If you've recently completed your orthodontic treatment with Plantation orthodontist Dr. Rinaldo Caponera, our entire team would like to congratulate you! Now, after your braces have been removed, Dr. Caponera will provide—or has provided you by now—with retainers. After braces are removed, teeth can shift out of position if they are not stabilized.

Retainers, you see, provide that stabilization. They are designed to hold teeth in their corrected, ideal positions until your bones and gums adapt to the treatment changes. Wearing retainers exactly as instructed by Dr. Caponera is the best insurance that the treatment improvements last for a lifetime.

If you have additional questions about retainers or your treatment here at Caponera Orthodontics, please give us a call at 954-791-6510.

Have a great week everyone!
