Just like with every phase of treatment, we approach the retention stage with personalized care — making sure your retainer plan fits your unique smile and long-term goals. Contact your nearest location to schedule a consultation with Dr. Jeff Hendrix to learn more.

When braces are ready to come off, most of our patients receive clear retainers. These thin, transparent trays fit snugly over your teeth — similar in appearance to an Invisalign® aligner. Clear retainers are a popular option, especially among adult patients, because they’re affordable, discreet, and easy to wear. Be sure to brush your retainer each time you remove it and before putting it back in to keep it clean and fresh.

Also known as fixed retainers, bonded retainers are often recommended for patients at higher risk of tooth movement after treatment. Made from a slim metal wire that’s cemented to the back of your lower front teeth, this retainer stays in place 24/7 to help prevent shifting.

Fixed retainers are very effective and low-maintenance, but they do require special care — you’ll need to use a floss threader to keep the area clean. If your bonded retainer becomes loose, just reach out to our office to schedule a quick repair.

Keep in mind that bonded retainers only stabilize the front 4 – 6 teeth, so we always pair them with clear retainers to ensure your entire smile stays in place. Not everyone is a candidate for a bonded retainer, so Dr. Hendrix will guide you through your best options.

Retainer mishaps happen — but don’t worry, we’re here for you! Our Retainer Assurance program covers replacement retainers and helps you save in the long run. Be sure to ask about it during your next visit to Hendrix Orthodontics!

From my daughter's first visit to her unexpected last, Dr. Hendrix and his team have been nothing short of amazing! They are incredibly friendly and genuinely care about their patients, which is evident the moment you walk in. My daughter was pleasantly surprised when it turned out it was time for her braces, and the team handled everything seamlessly. Ashlynn did an outstanding job throughout the process. We left with a retainer and a smile! Highly recommend Dr. Hendrix Orthodontics for anyone looking for top-notch care.

Today was our 1st time going to Hendrix Orthodontics. I am thrilled to have found them. Huge shout out to Mary who patiently explained everything & answered all of my questions. Dr. Hendrix was amazing! Without a doubt, I know my son is in great hands! This office is professional & clean. I love that a member of the team speaks Spanish, that’s an added plus! I’m excited for my son to start treatment soon.

Hendrix Orthodontics is THE BEST! I can not say enough about the quality of Dr. Hendrix’s work on both of my daughters’ beautiful smiles. Appointments were always timely, which was great especially when squeezing them in during the middle of the school day. The staff are all always friendly, upbeat, and helpful. They returned phone calls promptly. My daughter loved Tania who worked with her on several occasions. She was super friendly and kind, and easily connected with my daughter. I would give 10/10 stars if that were an option!

It had been 10 years since I stepped foot in Hendrix Orthodontics. But, Dr. Hendrix, Ashlynne and the entire staff made me feel as if I had never left. Going above and beyond to replace my retainer which contains 2 of my front teeth. Once you are a patient at Hendrix. You are part of their family for life.
