Clear Retainers
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.
Bonded Stabilizing Retainers
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.

Dr. Hendrix and the staff have been very knowledgeable. Everything was thoroughly explained before we started treatment and we had every question answered. It’s obvious Dr. Hendrix is invested in the outcomes of his patients. The office has been very patient and understanding, from last minute appointment changes to getting replacement retainers. We’re so glad we worked with Hendrix Orthodontics!

Hendrix Orthodontics is truly the best! They are the only ones I trust with my new braces and I couldn’t be any happier. Thank you for making me comfortable in this new journey of braces!
**PLEASE READ**Your search for the right orthodontist ends here. I just finished my treatment with Dr. Hendrix and his team and let me just say if I could give them 10 stars I would!!As someone who works in the dental field I did a lot of research on providers in the area & Dr. Hendrix is rated one of the best for a reason. He is knowledgeable, professional and very personable. I was very happy with the entire process. Dr Hendrix walked me through every step, going the extra mile to make sure things were perfect. He takes the time to talk to his patients. We talked about his kids, his hobbies and favorite music. With how everything is so rushed now a days it’s nice to have that from a provider.Dr. Hendrix and his team are like a well oiled machine! From the front desk, the treatment coordinator and the assistants every member of the team is such a pleasure to work with. I was seen by most of the assistants on the team and each one of them were amazing. Everyone is so knowledgeable and efficient. As an assistant myself I even picked up a couple of tips from them! They are all so friendly, you can tell they enjoy treating their patients.The office itself is very clean. Bonus points for the parking* its a small detail but an important one for me.Overall I had an amazing experience at Hendrix Orthodontics. My occlusion was causing jaw pain and discomfort and my ortho treatment has made a world of a difference. I am so grateful to Dr. Hendrix and his entire team. Thank you all so much!If you’re looking for top quality orthodontic care, Dr Hendrix and his team come highly recommended and in my opinion they are truly the best in the business.
The two factors that determine our satisfaction with a care provider are (1) the quality of care, professionalism, trustworthiness, and skill of the doctor and staff, and (2) the timeliness, organization, cleanliness, and communication of the office.Dr. Hendrix and his amazing staff consistently embody ALL of these qualities while exceeding expectations, and we highly recommend Dr. Hendrix for all orthodontia needs. We have had a great experience with all 3 kids, and personally, for my own complicated orthodontia care at Hendrix Orthodontics!
