Orthodontic retainers keep your teeth from drifting back after Invisalign or braces. At our Sonoma, CA office, we make custom clear, removable retainers from a precise iTero digital scan, so they fit closely and feel comfortable.
Had braces somewhere else? You're very welcome here. Whether you finished treatment last year or long ago, we can scan your teeth and make a retainer that fits the smile you have today. If things have shifted a little, we'll talk through your options honestly.
Your retainers are made by trusted dental labs from a precise scan, not a rough mold. That means a snug, comfortable fit that actually holds your teeth where they belong, and a clear retainer that's barely noticeable when you wear it.
Teeth naturally want to shift over time. Wear your retainer full-time at first, then usually nightly for the long term, as we advise. Rinse it with cool water, brush it gently with a soft brush, skip hot water, and keep it in its case, because pets love to chew them.
If you wait too long after losing one, teeth can start to move, so call us for a replacement. Our post on Invisalign refinements and retainers explains more.
To us, boutique dental care means you matter: personal, cozy, unhurried, and held to an exceptionally high standard. At Sonoma Springs Dental, Dr. Riley Oliver's boutique dental home in Sonoma, even a quick retainer visit gets that same care.

A retainer keeps your teeth from shifting back after Invisalign or braces. Teeth naturally want to drift over time, and a retainer holds your new smile in place. It's a small habit that protects all the work you put in, as we explain in our post on how great results stay great.
We make them from a precise iTero digital scan, with no goopy impressions. Trusted dental labs craft your clear, removable retainers to fit your teeth closely and comfortably.
At first, full time, then usually just at night for the long term. We'll tell you exactly when to make the switch based on how your teeth are settling. Nightly wear is what keeps your smile straight for years to come.
Rinse it and brush it gently with cool water and a soft brush. Skip hot water, since heat can warp the plastic. When it's not in your mouth, keep it in its case, because pets love to chew them.
Just call us and we'll make you a replacement. We also replace retainers that no longer fit well. Try not to go too long without one, since teeth can start to shift sooner than you'd expect.
Yes, you're very welcome here. Whether you finished braces years ago or Invisalign with another office, we can scan your teeth and make you a custom retainer. If your teeth have shifted a little, we'll talk through your options honestly.
