Why Choose Us

The guarantee of a perfectly aligned smile for life

The end of your active treatment is not the end of orthodontics! Teeth have a "memory" and naturally tend to return to their original position over the years. The retention phase is therefore an absolutely essential medical step to permanently stabilize your roots in the bone, ensure the longevity of your investment, and preserve the beauty of your new smile.
  • Invisible Retainer Wire: An ultra-thin braided alloy wire is bonded to the inside surface of your front teeth (upper and lower). Completely invisible from the outside and painless, it holds your teeth in place 24/7 without you even noticing.
  • Custom-Made Night Guards: 3D printed from a digital impression of your final result, these highly durable, transparent guards are for sleeping only. They lock the position of your entire dental arch.
  • Post-Treatment Follow-Up: We don't leave you to fend for yourself! We ensure regular clinical check-ups in the months following the removal of your appliance to verify the integrity of your bonded wires and the perfect fit of your night guards.
