Retainers Wear & Care in Saddle Brook, NJ

Why You Need a Retainer

You put in the time for a straighter smile — a retainer is what keeps it that way. EverSmile Dental provides custom-fit retainers and simple guidance to protect your results for years to come.

Teeth naturally drift over time. A retainer doesn’t move your teeth — it holds them in place after braces or Invisalign so your smile stays as straight as the day treatment ended.

How to Wear Your Retainer

First 3 Months

Wear it full-time (day and night). Remove only to eat and brush.

After 3 Months

Switch to nighttime wear only, unless your dentist advises otherwise.

Long term

Nightly wear is the easiest way to prevent your teeth from shifting back.

Caring for Your Retainer

  • Rinse with lukewarm water after every wear.
  • Clean with an Invisalign® cleaning solution for a deeper clean.
  • Bring it to your regular dental cleanings so we can check the fit and give it a professional clean.
  • Avoid hot water, which can warp the plastic.

Our Recommendation: Vivera® Retainers

We recommend Vivera® retainers, made by the creators of Invisalign®. They come in sets of four, so you can swap in a fresh retainer every six months — an easy way to catch stretching or wear before it affects your smile.

  • Had a great experience during my dentist visit! Cleaning was quick & easy. Both Staff and Dentist were very friendly and reassuring. Had some fillings done too but completely painless. The doctor explained every thing and answered any questions I had. I would recommend! Parking is in the back though since I got confused on my 1st visit so keep that in mind.

    Dr. Estedrak is fantastic! She's very personable and takes the time to get to know her patients. She's understanding and doesn't try to push unnecessary treatments. During my cleaning and checkup, she was gentle and made sure to explain everything she was doing, which really put my kids at ease. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a caring and professional dentist! Office is clean and very well run!

  • Dr Maryz is truly THE best dentist i have ever had, and trust me I've been through alot searching for the right one! I am classic example of someone who has a tremendous fear of dentists based on past experiences. Dr Maryz makes me feel so comfortable and relaxed the minute I see her. I changed my insurance plan just so myself and my children could join her practice. She's a perfectionist and dental artist. She explains everything to me and never never pushes her opinion on to me. She provides all the facts and respects my decisions, never judging me for my actions. Her staff are the perfect support not just for her practice but also her patients. Don't think twice about booking an appointment with Dr Maryz. She's the best!!

    I went in for a cleaning last Tuesday, October 22 and left very satisfied and heard. Dr.Estedrak, the dental hygienist and the front desk receptionist were professional, detailed, and lovely people. I’ve been getting cleanings my whole life, and Dr. Estedrak is the first person to recommend going in every four months. I will be back and I am very happy to find a competent dentist in this area.

Answers to Common Questions

Indefinitely. Teeth can shift at any age, so nightly wear is a lifelong habit — not just a first-year requirement.

Your teeth can start drifting back within weeks. Some relapse can be corrected with a new retainer alone; more significant shifting may require another round of Invisalign or braces.

Most retainers last about two years with proper care, though grinding, clenching, or inconsistent wear can shorten that. Vivera® retainers come in sets of four so you always have a fresh one on hand every six months.

No, remove it before eating or drinking anything besides water to avoid damage and staining.

Rinse it with lukewarm water after every wear, and use an Invisalign® cleaning solution weekly for a deeper clean. Never use hot water or toothpaste, which can scratch or warp the plastic.

Stop wearing it and call our office. A retainer that’s tight, loose, or cracked needs to be evaluated — forcing a bad fit can damage the retainer or shift your teeth unevenly.
