Before removing the orthodontic appliances it is important that you are satisfied with the final result. Be certain that you are satisfied before you agree to the removal of your appliances.
Teeth have a tendency to return to their original position unless a retainer is worn (Full time wear in the first year after removal, further instructions will be given by Dr. Lau after). At the end of treatment it is necessary to retain the teeth in position, otherwise they may move out of alignment.
Retainers may wear or break. If not repaired or replaced, your teeth may move. Contact us immediately if your retainer becomes damaged.
To ensure a long lasting result it is necessary to be checked at regular intervals.
