Teeth straightening is a work in progress. At the end of your treatment, you will need to continue to wear a retainer to ensure that your teeth maintain their new, corrected position. The retainer should be worn full-time for the first two to four weeks post treatment, or until you feel your teeth are not moving when retainer is out for the day, and then each night after that. If you don’t wear them each night you risk teeth moving again over time. This is the same for any teeth straightening process, clear aligners or metal braces.
Unlike some of the other companies on the market, we won’t try to charge you an additional fee for your initial retainers. Your first set of retainers are included in the cost of your aligners.
Retainers are designed to last for a period of 6 months. When required, you can purchase additional retainers for $149 per set.
Each case is different, so it is not possible to tell without reviewing your individual case and circumstances. In most cases, treatment will take somewhere between 4-8 months depending on the individual.
Getting the most out of aligners means making a serious commitment to getting the smile you want. You need to commit to wearing your aligners for a period of 20-hours each day. The more you commit, the better (and generally, faster) the results will be.
Through gentle controlled force our clear aligners are designed to gradually move the teeth into the desired position as per your specifically created treatment plan. Our clear aligners come as a set of multiple aligners. You’ll begin wearing a new set of aligners every two to three weeks.
Wearing the aligners for 20 hours per day as recommended is the key to getting the smile you’ve always wanted.
