Orthodontic Retainers in Utah
Orthodontic retainers do exactly what their name implies; retain your teeth in their new position. Wearing retainers after traditional braces or aligners cannot be stressed enough.
Keep Your Smile Perfect
Once you’ve reached the final milestone with traditional metal braces or Invisalign, we want to preserve all that work. Retainers for teeth help keep them in their new place.
Entering the Second Phase of Your New Smile
Anyone who has worn braces or aligners cannot wait to reveal their new and improved look. However, there’s a second phase of this journey called retention. Once orthodontic treatment is complete, retainers must be worn in order to keep your teeth in their new positions. Not wearing your retainer as instructed can allow your teeth to shift. Retainers help keep your smile as perfect as the day your braces were removed.
Learning More About Retainers
Orthodontic retainers can be made of wire, metal, or clear material, or a combination of both. Utah Orthodontic Care will work with you to find the best choice for your treatment needs.
You’ll be required to wear your retainer after braces or aligners have been removed. The only time you won’t wear them is while brushing, flossing, eating meals, or when replaced with a mouthguard while playing sports. For some treatment plans, we require cemented retainers that can act a bit like braces. Usually these aren’t designed to be worn forever.
It’s important that you care for and clean your retainers regularly; they’re expensive to replace! You will have a protective case to keep your retainers safe from breakage or loss when not in use. If you accidentally damage or lose your retainer, call us immediately; waiting to replace them can reverse your progress.

“Great orthodontics! I got my braces at UOC and they’ve been so amazing! First appointment is free, they’ll evaluate your teeth and talk to you about braces option options and prices/ plans.My dental insurance did not cover braces for adults ( I chose not to when I made my plan ) and even if I switched my plan I don’t think it would be a nice affordable plan like UOC offered me with monthly payments … I’m happy with them! They were always nice, friendly and flexible with schedules! Recommend it 100%!”
“I love this office. The doctor is fun with the kids, very friendly and approachable. The staff is typically very easy to work with and any time we have any question or concern they have been quick to make it right with us. We had a billing hiccup and Lauren was incredibly understanding and made the process to fix it easy. As a lower income family with multiple kids needing orthodontic work, this has been a huge weight off my shoulders. I cannot recommend them enough.”
