Do I Need A Retainer After Invisalign?

In this video, Austin cosmetic and implant dentist Dr. Brandon Hall explains the after-care process once you have completed your orthodontic treatment.

So a common question is, do you require a retainer after Invisalign? And the answer is yes. It’s normal that once we move teeth around, we have to have some kind of retention to keep them in place. Teeth tend to want to kind of go back a little bit to where they were. And teeth do commonly shift over time, even without braces or Invisalign.

Retention is important so a retainer is generally something that you’ll just wear at night. So it’s not something that you walk around all day, every day with a retainer on. If you have questions about Invisalign, contact Aspire Dental today for a free consultation.
