Retainers
Protect Your Child’s Perfect Smile with Custom Retainers
Congratulations! Your child’s orthodontic journey at Juni Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics has created the perfect smile. Now it’s time to protect that investment with our custom-fitted retainers designed specifically for growing children in San Diego.
Once your orthodontic treatment is complete, wearing a retainer is essential to maintain your beautiful new smile. Retainers are custom-made appliances designed to hold your teeth in their new, corrected positions while the surrounding bone and tissues stabilize. Without proper retainer use, your teeth can gradually shift back toward their original positions, undoing the progress made during treatment.
Our orthodontic team will provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for your retainer, including proper cleaning techniques and wear schedules. Whether you receive a removable retainer or a fixed retainer bonded behind your teeth, consistent use as directed by our team is crucial for long-term success.
We’ll schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure your retainer continues to fit properly, helping you maintain that perfect smile for years to come.
