Retainers

Clear Plastic Clear Plastic

At the end of your orthodontic treatment you will be provided with a retainer which may be a removable brace, a fixed retainer or a combination of both.

A removable retainer needs to be worn for 2 days full time, then every night in bed for at least a year and after this at least 3 nights per week long term. This will prevent the teeth moving back to their original position.

A fixed retainer is a wire cemented to the back of the upper or lower teeth. Fixed retainers are left on indefinitely unless they break or cause damage to the teeth or gums.

Being able to smile without being conscious of showing my teeth has changed my life. I feel confident and happy.

L O’Sullivan

"Staff are absolutely lovely, felt really comfortable when coming for my appointments. I was treated really well and my treatment worked exactly how I wanted it to. "

S Waddington

Really pleased with the results of my treatment especially as it has only taken 12 months. I would definitely recommend St Michaels and Invisalign. The treatment was pain free and had little impact on my day to day life (in terms of wearing braces)

R Ward

I had a really good experience with St Michaels. Staff were really nice and always helpful. Very glad I had Invisalign treatment. It has really boosted my confidence having a nice smile. Wish I had just done is sooner.

"The treatment Lauren received has been brilliant. It has changed her confidence levels and given her beautiful teeth. I’d fully recommend this surgery."

L Dale

I cannot thank St Michaels enough for the work I had done. Going down the Invisalign path was definitely the best option for me. All the work was carried out in a very professional manner but I was also greeted by a warm, friendly staff who made me feel very welcome. Invisalign is definitely worth the money and I couldn’t recommend it enough.
