What Are Retainers?
After you are done with your orthodontic treatment, you will move to a retainer to maintain your results. Your retainer can protect the investment you made in time and money with orthodontic treatments by keeping your teeth in their new location while your jaw and gums stabilize. To serve the needs of our patients, San Ramon Family Dental in San Ramon, CA offers many high-quality retainer options, including a fixed or removable retainer. Dr. Rupam Khanna will guide you in the process and discuss your options.
What Should I Expect with Retainers?
Once your orthodontics are taken off your teeth, you can be fitted for your retainer. We'll take an impression of your teeth and send it to a dental lab. Once your retainer is ready around 1 – 2 weeks later, we'll schedule an office visit. During this appointment, Dr. Khanna will ensure your retainer fits comfortably before sending you home. She will also tell you when you have to wear your retainer, as well as how to wash and store it.
What Are the Benefits of Retainers?
Retainers prepared by San Ramon Family Dental are essential in orthodontic care, extending extensive perks to promote appealing and restored smiles for San Ramon, CA patients. Some of the possible benefits include:
- Helping teeth to remain in alignment as gums and bone regulate alterations
- Safeguarding against bruxism (teeth grinding) while sleeping
- Improving speech and swallowing
- Strengthening the position of the teeth after orthodontic therapy
- Sustaining long-term outcomes following orthodontic treatment
- Blocking teeth from naturally changing position over time

Went in for a cleaning, a replacement crown and repairs of two teeth including a front incisor which looked pretty awful. I was done in two hours. The front tooth looks much better!Good people!Ron
