Straight Teeth
Reid Family Dental Practice offers removable Essix retainers. Retainers are used after you have had your teeth straightened to ensure that they remain in their new straight position. It essential that retainers are worn as recommended by your dentist, in order to ensure you continue to enjoy your new, straighter smile.
We recommend that you wear your retainer for 20-22 hours a day, and that you only take it out to eat, drink and brush your teeth.
- Easy to clean
- Retainer has to be removed to eat and drink
- Have to remember to put retainer back in after eating or teeth will begin to shift back into their original positions

Your local dentist will discuss your need for retainers, and advise how long you should wear these each day.
