It is much quicker, easier and more comfortable.
From this information we would formulate your personal treatment plan.

5 Completing TreatmentOnce you have completed your orthodontic treatment and have achieved that beautiful new smile, it’s very important to ensure that the teeth don’t move back following treatment. This is achieved by wearing custom-made retainers which your orthodontist will explain when and how often to wear.
