Why wear retainers?

Without retainers, teeth gradually move back towards their original position — even years after treatment. This 'relapse' can be small at first but adds up over time. Retainers prevent this and protect the investment you've made in straightening your teeth. They are essential after any orthodontic treatment.

When should you wear them?

  • 12–22 hours a day for the first 3–6 months after treatment
  • Night-time only for the next 6–12 months
  • 3–5 nights a week thereafter, long-term

Why Vivera is different

Vivera retainers are made from a strong, medical-grade plastic that resists deformation, making them more durable than standard clear retainers. They're comfortable to wear, near-invisible and easy to remove for eating and cleaning. Each prescription includes multiple sets, so there's a replacement on hand if one is lost or damaged.
