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.

Wear it full-time (day and night). Remove only to eat and brush.
Switch to nighttime wear only, unless your dentist advises otherwise.
Nightly wear is the easiest way to prevent your teeth from shifting back.
Caring for Your Retainer
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.
Lost, cracked, or outgrown your retainer? We’ll get you a new custom fit fast.

Your smile deserves to shine. At EverSmile Dental in Saddle Brook, NJ, we offer top cosmetic treatments in Bergen County — from porcelain veneers that correct chips, gaps, and discoloration to Invisalign® clear aligners and professional teeth whitening, including in-office Zoom® Whitening for dramatic one-visit results.

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.
