Retainers

Maintain and Enhance Your New Smile

At Ascend Orthodontics, we understand that achieving a beautifully aligned smile is just the beginning of your orthodontic journey. To maintain and enhance the results of your orthodontic treatment, retainers play a crucial role. Our in-house retainer services ensure that you receive the highest quality, custom-made retainers designed specifically for your needs.

Why Retainers Are Essential

Retainers are essential tools used to keep your teeth in their new, corrected positions after orthodontic treatment. Once your braces or aligners are removed, your teeth can still shift over time. Retainers help to stabilize the teeth and prevent unwanted movement, ensuring that the results of your treatment are preserved for years to come.

Custom-Made Retainers for Optimal Comfort and Effectiveness

At Ascend Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on providing personalized care, and our retainer services are no exception. Our experienced orthodontic team uses advanced technology and high-quality materials to craft retainers that are both durable and comfortable.
