Or risk having worse teeth than you started treatment with. That is a stern warning many dental associations agree upon for statistics are showing that kids and teens who have undergone orthopedic adjustments through braces are skipping wearing their retainers. This leads to a recurrence of their condition which has taken months to achieve only to have them re-set with another round of treatment.
Dental braces work on teeth for months to adjust and align them properly. After the right positions of teeth have been achieved, they are removed and replaced with removable braces or retainers that hold the teeth in the exact location for the time it takes the body to grow new bone, stabilizing the teeth into their proper place. Skipping braces gets the teeth back into their wild side, reverting to their original locations or even compounding an already successful procedure leaving them crooked as before. So dentists are getting tough on kids after treatment reminding them repeatedly to wear their retainers, for their smile’s sake(and their parents pockets too)
