We see alot of retainers, so trust us when we say, patients who use an ultrasonic cleaner have the cleanest and longest lasting retainers. These cleaners have a UV antibacterial light, mechanical cleaning with the shaking from the ultrasonic, and placing a cleaning tablet in gives chemical cleaning-an effective trifecta for keeping your retainers in great shape. We highly recommend! Bonus-you can use it to clean your jewelry as well (Not at the same time as your retainer)!
We sell these in the practice for $65 or you can purchase one online.
We give out one fancy case during treatment or for your retainer, but some people like to have multiple cases. You can find all sorts of adorable cases on the internet. We like the ones with a removable silicone insert and mirror.
MI Paste is a topical dental cream that strengthens and protects teeth by remineralizing them with calcium and phosphate. This is a cream that can protect teeth against cavities and white spots or can reduce the appearance of white spots. We recommend placing it in your retainer or clear aligner and wearing at night time. It comes in a fluoride and fluoride-free option.
We also sell this product in the practice in a variety of flavors for $25.
These are silicone bite sticks that are helpful for seating a clear aligner on a stubborn tooth to get the full movement expressed. If your clear aligners are not fully fitting on your teeth, we recommend biting and holding on these chewies for 10 seconds each tooth for multiple times throughout the day to get your aligner to fit.
We give a 2-pack sample of these at the start of any new clear aligner treatment and if you need more, you can find them here!
If you have a missing tooth, or a crown comes loose, this putty material can be placed in a clear aligner or retainer to mimic a tooth to fill in the gap and improve confidence. This is an easy, temporary solution.
