Essix retainers –
Essix retainers are removable retainers and are the
latest
type of retainers in Dentistry. They are made entirely of high grade transparent plastic or acrylic, that conforms exactly to the
contours of the teeth to aid in the maintenance of tooth position (retention).
The Essix material does not typically cover the palatal tissues. which makes
them less noticeable than traditional wire retainers.
Another benefit is that they encourage good dental hygiene; patients can
take out their retainer when they brush and floss, and clean the retainer
itself at the same time. Unlike some wire retainers, Essix retainers cover the
entire arch of the teeth.
But like the traditional Hawley, each one is
uniquely moulded to the shape of the patient's mouth.
How Essix Retainers Work --
Essix retainers gently guide your teeth into a
position where the upper and lower sets are even, straight and align with each
other. Though your teeth may feel firmly set in your mouth,they move when under
constant pressure and can assume new positions in the mouth all on their own.
Essix retainers maintain the intended position following orthodontic treatment,
all while providing minor corrections to slightly misaligned teeth if needed.
Essix Retainer Care --
With consistent wear, an Essix
retainer should last the entire length of your treatment. When caring for your
retainer, Dr. Goswami always advises, be sure to:
• Rinse
the retainer in cold water every time you take it out and before you put it
back in.
• Store
the retainer in a braces plastic case whenever you aren't wearing it.
• Don't
brush the retainer with toothpaste, as it can scratch the surface.
• Brush
the retainer after each meal with cool water and a soft toothbrush.
• Don't
put the retainer in hot water, which will shrink it.
• Wash
the retainer with a specialized retainer cleaner once every two to three
months.
How Long to Wear Your Retainer --
The minimum time for the teeth to
settle into their new positions after braces are removed is actually more than
2 years, and according to Delhi Dental Center, the standard length of treatment
with an Essix retainer should not be less than 2 to 3 years post orthodontic treatment
– as long as the retainer is worn throughout the day. You might have to wear an
Essix retainer for up to two to three year or longer. After that, patients need
only wear their retainers at night once or twice a week.
Living with Essix Retainers --
As delicate as they are, wearing
Essix retainers should be trouble-free, and your routine should remain the
same. Floss your teeth once a day and brush twice a day, using a soft-bristled
toothbrush and a fluoride toothpaste. If your retainer begins to feel
uncomfortable, it's a sign your teeth are moving out of position and you might
not be wearing the retainer often enough. Wearing your retainer more will
reduce this discomfort.
Essix retainers help patients feel
less self-conscious about their orthodontic treatment. Follow your
orthodontist's instructions closely to make the best use of yours, and you'll
be on your way to straight, even and attractive teeth that never move out of position.
