Retention & Space Maintenance
Retainers
Retainers play an important role in maintaining your newly straightened smile after orthodontic treatment. Available in both fixed and removable options, retainers help prevent teeth from shifting back to their original position. Wearing a retainer as prescribed ensures long-term results and protects the investment in your smile.
Space Maintainers
At Brooke Orthodontics in SW Calgary, space maintainers help preserve the proper spacing in a child’s mouth when a primary tooth is lost too early. These custom-made devices prevent neighbouring teeth from shifting, ensuring enough room for permanent teeth to grow correctly. By guiding proper tooth alignment, space maintainers can reduce the need for more extensive orthodontic treatment in the future.
