Let&#8217;s take a look at what to do after finishing orthodontic treatment.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Retainers used after orthodontic treatment are small appliances that try to keep your teeth in their new positions. Because when your treatment is finished, the bone around your teeth is not mature and they can move if the retainer is not worn. Even if the bone around your teeth matures, it may be necessary to keep the retainers in your mouth &#8211; sometimes for life &#8211; as recommended by your doctor.<\/p>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6ac5a13fcfbc0&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6ac5a13fcfbc0\" class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"451\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drdadasli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ortodontik-tedavi-sonrasi-1024x451.jpg\" alt=\"after orthodontic treatment\" class=\"wp-image-2450\" style=\"width:650px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drdadasli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ortodontik-tedavi-sonrasi-1024x451.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/drdadasli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ortodontik-tedavi-sonrasi-300x132.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drdadasli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ortodontik-tedavi-sonrasi-768x338.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drdadasli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ortodontik-tedavi-sonrasi.jpg 1253w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Teeth move because the bone surrounding them is constantly being resorbed and re-formed.

In order to resist these forces, a retaining wire (lingual retainer) should be placed behind the teeth after your treatment is complete. <strong>No appliance or retainer can stop the movement of your teeth 100%<\/strong>, but if retainers are used as recommended after orthodontic treatment, they are very effective in stopping tooth movement.<\/p><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Retention Appliances Used After Orthodontic Treatment<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the tooth\/jaw disorder, your orthodontist can apply 2 different types of retainers:<\/p>\n\n<ol style=\"padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--70)\" class=\"wp-block-list has-medium-font-size\">\n<li><a href=\"#removable\">removable<\/a> &#8211; meaning you can put it on and take it off,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#fixed\">fixed<\/a> &#8211; a type of appliance that bonds to the back surfaces of the teeth.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"hareketli\"><strong>Removable Retention Appliances<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Removable retainers are frequently used after orthodontic treatment.

This appliance is made of a material called acrylic and has a wire on the front. Recently, Essix retainers have become especially popular. These appliances are almost invisible and are made of a plastic-like material.<\/p>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6ac5a13fd26ef&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6ac5a13fd26ef\" class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"333\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drdadasli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/essix-apareyi.jpg\" alt=\"A clear retention device applied to the upper and lower jaws to prevent teeth from deteriorating after orthodontic treatment is completed.

This is especially true if you are using a clear retainer (essix).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep your appliance away from pets. Dogs in particular love to chew on Essix retainers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are using a removable retainer, keep it away from heat. Especially Essix appliances can melt easily in hot environments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take care to keep your retainers clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your orthodontist will give you information on how to clean the removable retainer you will use. Be sure to brush your teeth before putting the retainer in your mouth. Click to view my article on retainer care.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can brush, floss, and use mouthwash for fixed retainers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are using a removable retainer, ask your doctor if it should be removed while eating. Most of the time, the retainer is not used during meals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are using the Essix retainer, do not consume liquids other than water while the appliance is in your mouth. Because colored liquids (coffee, tea, red wine, etc.) remain between the appliance and the tooth and can color both the appliance and the tooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you have a problem with your retainer &#8211; breakage, loosening, tightening, loss, etc., be sure to inform your orthodontist.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Having a healthy and beautiful smile is in your hands. During and after your treatment, pay attention to oral hygiene and have routine dentist check-ups. Maintaining the wonderful results you have achieved with orthodontic treatment is in your hands. Therefore, you should use the retainers as and for the duration recommended by your doctor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Orthodontic Treatment Have you completed your orthodontic treatment?
