Typically, patients in the retention phase of treatment need to be seen periodically for at least one year after braces are removed. As a patient of Kemp Orthodontics, you are responsible for following Dr. Kemp's instructions regarding your retainer and its use. Usually, a removable retainer is prescribed, and it is worn only at night – but every night. Alternatively, a fixed retainer, one that is bonded to your teeth and is not removable, may be prescribed for you. A fixed retainer may be worn for several years as long as you maintain good oral hygiene. Your visits to Kemp Orthodontics will be less frequent but not less important. Remember: your retainers are the best insurance for keeping your Beautiful Smile!
