Retainers are the final — and permanent — phase of any orthodontic treatment. During the months of remodelling, retainers hold the teeth precisely where treatment left them. Orthodontists in Beragh typically fit them the same day braces come off.
How Long Is Retention?
Modern practice is lifelong retention for removable retainers — daily wear at first, easing to nights only long-term. Stopping entirely, even years later, remains the commonest cause of teeth drifting back.
Because a fixed retainer removes the compliance question entirely, it's the surest safeguard against long-term drift.
Should your retainer feel tight after time away from it, that's early drift; see your orthodontist rather than forcing it back on. Acting quickly avoids a bigger, costlier correction later.

Do fixed retainers cause tartar build-up?

Using a floss threader or interdental brush daily, plus regular hygienist visits, keeps the area healthy. Most people manage this easily once shown the technique.
