After the initial orthodontic treatment is complete, a retainer is often used to keep the teeth in place. The retention phase usually lasts approximately 24 months; during this phase, patient compliance is essential to acheiving and maintaining maximum benefits from orthodontic treatment. It is also important to take care of the retainer by cleaning it regularly and keeping it in a safe place to avoid loss or damage.
