Without proper retention, the natural tendency of teeth is to start shifting back toward their original position. This is caused by the gums and ligaments surrounding the teeth. They can act like rubber bands that want to pull your teeth crooked again. To keep this from happening and to keep your stunning new smile perfect for a lifetime, regularly wearing your retainers is key.

We use discreet clear night time-only retainers that cover all of the surfaces of the teeth. They’re like pajamas for your teeth! We call these our 3-in-1 retainers because they protect your teeth from movement, grinding, and can also be used for professional whitening trays. To help ensure your Molen Signature Smile lasts a lifetime, we also place a permanent wire retainer on the backside of your lower front teeth. This double layer of retention ensures that your teeth stay straight and beautiful, year after year. For more information read our Retainer Guide.
