Dental bridge and retainers

2019-04-09 03:59:10
Will the daily wearing and removing of my retainers (essix retainers) dislodge my dental bridge (dental bridge is 4 unit on upper front incisors consisting of two middle pontic and abutment on each end)? Also will it reduce the life of the bridge?

No definitely it won’t affect the longevity of the bridge.... Use of retainers post orthodontic treatment is mandatory to prevent relapse.
Health Tips
Be cautious when u bite on something hard.. better don’t use your front teeth for biting anything hard.
