Let’s talk: Fixed Lingual Retainers 🦷
Have you recently completed your Orthodontic treatment? Do you have an Orthodontic Retainer in place?
〰️ A fixed retainer is a thin piece of wire that is bonded to the lingual surface of your teeth (along the back or tongue side of your teeth).
〰️ What is it’s purpose?
Lingual retainers prevent relapse post orthodontic treatment and assist the teeth to maintain their new position / alignment.
💡Dental tip of the day: Use super floss to thread inbetween the wire to clean the surfaces that normal floss can’t reach.
