About This Retainer
Clear retainers are thin, transparent, and virtually invisible when worn. Made from BPA-free thermoplastic, they snap snugly over your teeth to keep them in place. They're the most popular retainer type: comfortable, discreet, and easy to get used to.
Every retainer is manufactured to your orthodontist's exact specifications by a certified, USA-based dental lab.
Care Instructions
- 💧 Clean daily with lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush. Avoid hot water. It can warp the material.
- 📦 Store in your retainer case when not wearing. Never wrap it in a napkin (the #1 way retainers get thrown away).
- 🔄 Plan to replace your retainer about once a year. Daily wear causes gradual wear and tear. A fresh retainer keeps your teeth where they belong.
- ⚠️ Avoid toothpaste, mouthwash, or harsh cleaners. They can scratch or discolor your retainer. A gentle dish soap works great.
