Vivera retainers are made using proprietary thermoplastic, a strong and flexible material. This material allows for a precise fit that can help to prevent teeth from shifting. The retainers are also designed to be comfortable and discreet, making them a popular choice for many patients.
Vivera Retainers vs. Traditional Retainers
While traditional retainers are often made from metal wires and acrylic, Vivera retainers offer several advantages. They are more comfortable, less noticeable, and easier to clean. Additionally, Vivera retainers are less likely to break or become damaged.
How Long Do Vivera Retainers Last?
The lifespan of a Vivera retainer can vary depending on several factors, including how well it is cared for and the individual’s oral hygiene habits. With proper care, Vivera retainers can last for several years.
Caring for Your Vivera Retainer
To ensure the longevity of your Vivera retainer, it’s essential to care for it properly. Here are a few tips:
- Clean it daily: Brush your retainer with a soft-bristled toothbrush and a mild soap.
- Rinse it thoroughly: Rinse your retainer with warm water after cleaning it.
- Soak it overnight: Every night, soak your retainer in a retainer cleaning solution.
- Avoid hot water: Hot water can damage the plastic of your retainer.
- Store it properly: When you’re not wearing your retainer, store it in a case to protect it from damage.
