Retainers in Paramus, NJ
Your new smile deserves lasting protection.
At Paramus Orthodontics, we provide clear retainers, permanent retainers, and quick replacement options to keep teeth aligned after braces or Invisalign. Expect a relaxed visit, precise digital scans, and practical guidance you can follow at home. Whether you lost a retainer, have a broken retainer, or need a retainer after braces or Invisalign, our team makes it simple to get back on track.
What Are Retainers?
Retainers are custom-made appliances that hold teeth in their new positions after orthodontic treatment. Teeth have a natural tendency to shift, so retainers protect your results. We offer clear retainers, which are removable and discreet, and permanent retainers, which are bonded behind the teeth for worry-free maintenance. Your orthodontist in Paramus will help you choose the style that fits your lifestyle and hygiene routine.
Why So Many Patients Still Choose Retainers
Retainers are the insurance policy for your smile. They are comfortable, easy to wear, and proven to prevent shifting after braces or clear aligners. Clear retainers are nearly invisible and simple to clean. Permanent retainers stay hidden behind the front teeth and work around the clock. If you have a history of crowding or a gap between front teeth, retainers are especially important. Our team in Paramus uses digital scans to create a snug fit, then gives straightforward wear schedules that match your goals.

Who Can Benefit from Retainers?
Anyone who has completed orthodontic treatment needs retainers. If you just finished braces or Invisalign, a retainer helps teeth settle into a stable bite. Adults who notice minor shifting years after treatment can use a clear retainer to safeguard alignment. Teens benefit from simple routines that fit school and sports. For patients with relapsed crowding, a new, clear retainer can prevent further movement while we review options. If you think your retainer does not fit, call us for a quick assessment and a replacement retainer plan.
