Retention is a lifelong commitment, not a short-term measure many patients expect. Relapse begins quickly once active treatment stops, which is why retention never truly ends. Any orthodontic practice in Bainton can fit, replace or repair them if you need it.
Looking After Retainers in Bainton
Expect to replace an Essix retainer every couple of years; Hawley plates last far longer, and bonded wires longest of all. The one thing to watch with a fixed retainer is a wire quietly debonding from a tooth.
Treat a lost or broken retainer as time-sensitive. Any orthodontic practice in Bainton can help, and catching a problem early is always far cheaper than dealing with relapse later.

The Retainer Wear Schedule
Guidance has shifted in recent years: removable retainers are now recommended indefinitely — full-time for the first 3–6 months, then nights only, then several nights a week for life. The old 'stop after two years' advice caused many relapses.
A bonded wire simply stays put, quietly doing its job without any effort from you, which is why it's the most dependable form of retention.
If a removable retainer stops fitting after a gap in wear, don't force it — contact your orthodontist. A new retainer, or occasionally a short retreatment, is far cheaper than letting relapse set in.
