At Helix House Orthodontics, we provide you with THE GOLD STAR STANDARD of both fixed and removable retainers upon the completion of your treatment with us.

Why wear retainers at all?

As your Helix House orthodontist will have explained to you, retainers are crucial in keeping your smile straight and healthy for longer. The devices are custom-made just for your mouth and must be worn regularly to stop the teeth from moving back to where they used to be.

This means you can enjoy the confidence your stunning smile gives you for years to come. It also protects the investment of time and money you made in your smile and your health by undergoing treatment in the first place.

Types of retainers

As Specialist Orthodontists, we truly believe that our patients deserve nothing less than a 5* Gold Standard retention. Combining a bonded retainer with a removable retainer is the most effective way to keep your smile looking its best for years to come.

Fixed retainers: Fixed retainers are thin metal wires that are fixed to the backside of your upper and lower front teeth. You don’t need to worry about losing them, but you do need to pay close attention to your fixed retainer when brushing your teeth.

Removable retainers: Removable retainers look a bit like clear aligners. They are virtually invisible and custom-made to slot over your upper and lower teeth. You can take them out for meal times and brushing and flossing.
