Retainers Issues: RETAINERS ARE TOO LOOSE

Retainers are too loose if they just can’t stay on your teeth. If retainers do not hug teeth, they cannot hold teeth in place efficiently.

Possible reasons for loose retainers are:

Distorted/ deformed retainers
Cracked/ broken retainers or parts of the retainer
Newly erupted teeth
Altered shape of teeth from new dental restorations or dental trauma

If there is a lot of PAIN from trying to fit your retainers on, STOP! Do not force the retainers onto your teeth. Make an appointment to see us As Soon As Possible and bring your retainers along.
