How do we clean orthodontic retainers?

After completing orthodontic treatment, the wires are removed from the teeth and a post-orthodontic plate or retainer is used instead. The retainer reduces excessive movement of the arranged teeth and prevents any distortion or misalignment of the teeth. Depending on the opinion of the orthodontist, the patient may have to use the retainer, so it is very important to keep it clean, because if it is used continuously and not cleaned, it may lead to infection of the patient in the mucous membrane of the gums, mouth and teeth. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how to clean your installers.
