Will I Require a Retainer After Invisalign?

In this video, Dr. Rose Magno explains why retainers are essential after Invisalign to maintain your results. Contact our Emeryville office, serving San Francisco, East Bay, and Oakland, to learn more about post-treatment care and schedule a consultation.

After completing your treatment, we typically recommend wearing a retainer to help maintain the results. Your teeth naturally have a tendency to shift back to their original positions over time, but the retainer will keep them in place and ensure long-term stability. While it may not prevent movement entirely, it will significantly reduce the chances of your teeth shifting.

For the best results, it’s important to wear the retainer consistently, and in some cases, for the long term. This is key to preserving the improvements we’ve made and ensuring your smile stays as beautiful and functional as it should.
