Teeth drift for life, so a finished result has to be held. Your initial retainers are included in your fee, fixed or removable as your case needs, and made from a scan taken the day treatment ends.
Your teeth are scanned the same day treatment finishes, so the retainer matches the result exactly.
02
Fitted and checked
Dr. Haykani fits the retainer herself and confirms it holds every tooth where she placed it.
03
A wear schedule she sets
Full time at first for some cases, then nightly. She tells you what your case needs rather than a generic rule.
04
Follow-up checks
Brief periodic visits where she confirms your teeth are holding, checks the appliance for wear, and replaces it when it wears out.
Who it suits
Every patient finishing braces or aligner treatment
Patients whose teeth have shifted since previous treatment
Anyone unsure whether their old retainer still fits
Patients who grind and may need a guard as well
Do you need a new retainer?
If your current retainer still fits properly and is keeping your teeth in position, you may not need a replacement. Dr. Haykani can check the fit and let you know whether a new retainer is actually needed.
Anything else, call or text. You will hear back the same day.
Yes. Your first set of retainers is included in your treatment fee. If an existing retainer still works, we tell you so rather than replace it.
Request an appointment online, or call or text (661) 425-0559. You will hear back the same day, including Sundays and evenings.
Dr. Haykani herself. She checks the fit, confirms every tooth is holding where she finished it, and makes any adjustment right there in the chair.
Most patients wear it full time for the first few months, then at night long term. Dr. Haykani sets the schedule your case needs rather than a generic rule.
Brush it daily with a soft toothbrush and mild clear soap, then rinse with cool or lukewarm water. Keep it away from hot water, which can warp the plastic, and store it in its case whenever it is out.
Contact us as soon as possible and we will get you back in quickly. Teeth like to be held, so a prompt repair or a fresh retainer keeps your result exactly where Dr. Haykani finished it.
Take it out for meals and for anything other than plain water. It goes straight back in after you brush.
It depends on how your teeth are likely to move. A thin wire bonded behind the teeth works continuously with nothing to remember, while a removable tray suits other finishes. Dr. Haykani chooses based on your case.
Bone and ligament need time to firm up around teeth in their new positions, and teeth keep changing gently for life with age and with wisdom teeth. A retainer holds the bite you corrected and protects the investment you made in it.
Some small changes can still happen over the years, because teeth and the bone around them change throughout life. Wearing your retainer as Dr. Haykani directs keeps those changes to a minimum, and bringing it to your visits lets her check that everything is holding.
From a digital scan of your teeth taken the day treatment finishes, so the appliance matches your result precisely. No impressions needed.
Brush along the wire and floss under it each day, using a floss threader or an interdental brush to reach between the teeth. If the wire feels loose or a tooth no longer feels attached to it, call or text, and you hear back the same day.
