Retainers

Orthodontic treatment is a transformative journey that gives you the smile you’ve always dreamed of. However, the journey doesn’t end when your braces come off. To ensure your teeth stay in their new, corrected positions, retainers are an essential part of post-treatment care. At Regale Clinic in Dubai, we specialize in providing high-quality, custom-made retainers designed to preserve your beautiful smile for years to come.
Why Are Retainers So Important?
After braces, your teeth naturally want to shift back to their original positions. This phenomenon, known as “relapse,” can undo all the hard work you’ve put into your orthodontic treatment. Retainers act as a stabilizing force, holding your teeth in place while the surrounding bone and tissues adapt to their new alignment.
Here’s why retainers are non-negotiable after orthodontic treatment:
- Prevent Teeth Shifting: Without a retainer, your teeth may gradually move out of alignment, leading to crookedness or bite issues.
- Maintain Long-Term Results: A retainer ensures that your investment in braces pays off with lasting results.
- Protect Oral Health: Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems.
At Regale Clinic , we emphasize the importance of retainers and provide personalized solutions to meet your unique needs.
Types of Retainers Available at Regale Clinic
Not all retainers are created equal. Depending on your lifestyle, preferences, and orthodontic needs, our team will recommend the best option for you. Here’s an overview of the most common types of retainers:
1. Hawley Retainers
A classic choice, Hawley retainers consist of a metal wire that wraps around your teeth and an acrylic base that fits snugly against the roof of your mouth.
- Pros: Durable, adjustable, and easy to clean.
- Cons: Visible metal wire may affect aesthetics.
2. Essix Retainers (Clear Retainers)
These are made from transparent plastic and resemble Invisalign aligners. Essix retainers are a popular choice for those seeking discretion.
- Pros: Virtually invisible, lightweight, and comfortable.
- Cons: May wear out faster than other types.
3. Lingual Retainers (Fixed Retainers)
Bonded to the back of your teeth, lingual retainers are permanent fixtures that require no daily removal.
- Pros: No need to remember to wear them; excellent for long-term stability.
- Cons: Requires extra care during cleaning to prevent plaque buildup.
4. Custom Solutions
At Regale Clinic , we also offer bespoke retainers tailored to your specific needs. Whether you prefer a removable option or a fixed solution, our team ensures your retainer is both effective and comfortable.

How to Care for Your Retainer
Proper maintenance is key to ensuring your retainer lasts and continues to function effectively. Here are some tips for keeping your retainer in top condition:
For Removable Retainers:
- Clean Daily: Rinse your retainer under lukewarm water after each use and soak it in a denture cleaner or retainer-cleaning solution once a week.
- Store Safely: Always keep your retainer in its case when not in use to avoid damage or loss.
- Avoid Heat: Keep your retainer away from hot water or direct sunlight, as heat can warp the material.
For Fixed Retainers:
- Brush Thoroughly: Pay extra attention to the area around the bonded wire when brushing your teeth.
- Use Floss Threaders: These tools help you clean between your teeth and under the retainer wire.
- Regular Checkups: Visit Regale Clinic for routine inspections to ensure your fixed retainer remains secure and functional.
