Query for clear retainers

2019-09-21 18:38:41
I got my braces removed 2 weeks ago and my dentist recommended me the metal retainers and I have to wear it for like 6-7 months, but I just can't get used to it. So if I want a new pair of clear retainers, how much it costs? And how often do I need to get a new pair of retainers?

Retention phase after Braces treatment is Very Important. Relapse chances are maximum when you don't wear the retainers properly and sincerely. it will take you 2-3 days to get adjusted to your retainer. Not to worry, as you got adjusted for braces, you will get adjusted to the retainers too, soon. If it is hurting you visit your doctor and get it corrected. If not he will explain you the cost. You dont need to change the retainer until it is irreversibly damaged. Usually single retainers are adjusted throughout the treatment.
Health Tips
Keep Patience. And follow the instructions given to avoid relapse of the treatment.

Hello The cost of clear retainers can be around 2000 to 4000. One set of fresh impressions are required for that.

Metal retainers are equally good. In case if they are not fitting well they can be manipulated/adjusted by your Orthodontist and it will be all good.
