Invisalign® Retainers

At Wiewiora & Dunn Orthodontics, we prioritize the long-term success of your orthodontic treatment! We provide Invisalign retainers after you complete Invisalign or braces treatment to  ensure that your beautiful new smile lasts a lifetime.

Upper and Lower Clear Removable Retainers

We provide both an upper and lower clear removable retainer after braces or Invisalign treatment. These retainers are specifically designed to be worn at night to prevent your teeth from shifting out of place and “relapsing” to their original positions, pre-treatment. 

Lower Permanent Bonded Retainer for Extreme Crowding

For patients with extreme crowding, we may recommend a lower permanent bonded retainer. This wire retainer is placed on the back of your teeth and offers additional, consistent support for alignment. 

However, it’s important to note that even with the bonded retainer, you will still need to wear the removable lower retainer at night. This combination ensures that all your teeth are held securely in their proper positions, as the bonded wire only extends from canine to canine (covering six teeth).

Efficient Scanning Process

To create your custom Invisalign retainers after treatment, we utilize the advanced iTero®  scanning technology. When your treatment is complete, we perform a scan of your teeth and order custom retainers based on these precise digital impressions. This advanced scanning process ensures accurate and comfortable retainers that perfectly fit your teeth.

Convenient Delivery and Check-up

Approximately one week after ordering your retainers, we will deliver them to you! During this appointment, we will take a photo of your teeth and check the fit of the retainers to ensure that they are providing optimal support. If you have undergone Invisalign treatment, you’ll be advised to to wear your last tray at night to prevent any shifting.

Transparent Pricing

We believe in transparent pricing with our Invisalign retainers cost! The cost of the retainers and all associated services is included in your initial treatment fee. In the event that a second set of retainers is needed at the deband appointment, we offer a $100 discount, making the total cost $200. If a set of retainers is lost in the future and needs to be reordered, the cost is $300.

Benefits of Timely Retainer Replacement

One of the key benefits of our retainers is that as long as you contact us and order a lost retainer before any shifting occurs, we will always have the 3D model of your teeth from your last appointment. This allows us to recreate your retainers based on the accurate position of your teeth, ensuring the best fit and alignment. The cost for ordering a replacement retainer in such cases is $150 per tray.

    What Invisalign Can Fix

    invisalign® For Gap Teeth

    Gaps between your teeth are a spacing issue whereby you will have extra space between two or more of your teeth. The issue that can arise is that food can get stuck in that area, causing your gums to become tender and sore, which can lead to gum disease. Invisalign for gaps can straighten your teeth to the point of eliminating the gap, preventing any serious damage.

    invisalign® For Overbite

    An overbite is when the front row of your teeth overlaps the bottom row of your teeth. Most people have at least a small overbite, but if your top layer overlaps your bottom layer significantly, that is known as a deep bite. This can lead to numerous issues, including your teeth wearing down and significant pain in your jaw. Invisalign for overbite can align your teeth, so your top row isn’t so prominent in the front.  Invisalign will reduce the overbite to 5 to 25 percent, the ideal number for most people.

    invisalign® For Underbite

    If you close your mouth and the lower row of your teeth overlaps the top row of your teeth, then you have an underbite. This can be caused by your lower jaw being too far forward and can make it hard to chew, speak clearly and can wear down your teeth. Invisalign for underbite can fix most underbite, but in severe cases, patients will need to have an Invisalign treatment coupled with surgery.

    invisalign® For Crossbite

    A crossbite is when you close your mouth and some of your upper teeth sit inside of your lower teeth as opposed to outside of them. This can lead to your teeth wearing down or chipping, as well as your gums receding or making notches above your gum line. The cumulative damage can lead to bone loss. Invisalign for crossbite will realign your teeth so the teeth in your top row don’t sit behind the teeth in your bottom row.

    invisalign® For Open Bite

    When your mouth is closed, if your upper row and bottom row of teeth don’t touch, that means you have an open bite. Normally a problem with your jawbone or a bad mix of baby and permanent teeth when you are a child, this can make it hard to chew and bite into some foods, including apples. Invisalign for open bite will force your teeth out, allowing them to touch when your mouth is closed.

    invisalign® For Crowded Teeth

    This condition occurs when the jaw doesn’t have enough room for your teeth to fit normally, causing them to bunch up, overlap and twist, sometimes getting pushed to the front or the back. Crowded teeth can make it hard to brush and floss well. Then it’s easier for plaque, tartar, and harmful bacterial to build up – which can lead to tooth decay and gum disease. Your crowded teeth can also get worse over time. Invisalign can effectively move crowded teeth into correct position and alignment.

    Not only does Invisalign fix your smile, but it prevents potential oral disasters. Visit our office in Lake Mary or Longwood to get a quick digital scan and be on your way to a perfect smile with Invisalign!
