FAQ
What materials are the retainers made of?
At Carpinello Orthodontics, every retainer is carefully crafted using premium-quality, biocompatible materials to ensure they are durable for long-term use and comfortable for daily wear. Dr. Paul Carpinello and Dr. David Carpinello focus on patient satisfaction by utilizing top-grade materials designed to preserve your teeth’s alignment effectively while providing maximum comfort.
How often do I need to wear the retainers?
For optimal results, we highly recommend wearing your retainers every night after completing your orthodontic treatment. This step is crucial to keeping your teeth in their newly aligned positions. Early on, consistent nightly use is especially important, as your teeth are still stabilizing, ensuring the changes achieved during treatment are maintained. Over time, as your teeth fully settle and the risk of shifting decreases, Dr. Paul Carpinello or Dr. David Carpinello may suggest reducing the frequency, such as wearing your retainers a few nights per week. This tailored approach ensures convenience while preserving the long-term benefits of your treatment.
What is the cost of teeth retainers?
At Carpinello Orthodontics, we are dedicated to offering affordable pricing on all retainer options while maintaining the highest quality standards.
