Orthodontic Retainers
Once your orthodontic treatment is complete, you can proceed to a retainer to keep your results. Your retainer will protect the investment that you made in time and money during your orthodontic treatment by keeping your teeth in their new place while your gums and jaw stabilize. To serve the needs of our many patients, Shenandoah Ortho in Virginia offers many high-quality retainer alternatives, like a removable or fixed retainer. Dr. Damon DeArment and Dr. Daniel Lill can guide you in the process and explore all of your options.

Call Shenandoah Valley Orthodontics today to schedule an appointment with our skilled orthodontists, Dr. Damon W. DeArment or Dr. Daniel J. Lill and learn more about retainers in Winchester and Front Royal, Virginia.
Types of Retainers
Retainers are custom-made oral appliances designed to retain the alignment of your teeth after you complete your orthodontic treatment. As you age, your teeth can start to shift, and your retainer is made to keep your teeth in place. We want you to benefit from your hard work and your brand-new, healthy smile for your entire lifetime! There are three types of retainers available to you:
- Hawley retainers contain a plastic body that use wires and clasps. This type of retainer can cover the roof of your mouth to retain your upper arch or lay along the tongue-side of your teeth to retain your lower arch.
- Clear retainers are made of clear plastic and are designed to fit snugly over your teeth. Since they are clear, they are more discreet than a Hawley retainer.
- Fixed retainers, also known as permanent or bonded retainers, are permanently attached to the back of your teeth to prevent movement. This kind of retainer can only be removed by a dental professional.
Once you complete your orthodontic treatment, our orthodontists can help you determine what kind of retainer will work best for you and your smile. To learn more about retainers, please contact our office today to schedule an appointment with us.

Got braces when I was in high school bout 10 years ago at Shenandoah valley orthodontics would highly recommend this place as the drs. Are very professional and friendly .....Had to go back a few years ago and get new retainers and they greeted me like I was still a current patient pulled up my old charts and everything right away even though it had been over 7 years and got me what I needed in 2 appointments and all was good Thank you for such a good experience
SVO is by far the best! I went at the recommendation of a co-worker after my general dentist quoted $7,000 for Invisalign (and come to find out they were going to load me up with a bunch of bogus treatment). Friendly staff and very attentive. I had traditional braces in my early 20’s and of course, didn’t wear retainers. I’m now going through the Invisalign treatment and couldn’t be happier with SVO!
I have been with SVO since COVID, was actually their first virtual apt during the pandemic. They have always been so very kind to me and my children. I came in originally to take care of my over bite because I never wore my retainers when I had braces when young. I came in they put invisilign on my teeth and then we finished up with braces for the remaining of my time. Today is actually the day I get my braces off and I couldn’t be more excited!When they took the invisilign off they gave me a gift of some fresh baked cookies and a bottle of wine!I love everyone here but my favorite person is definitely Mrs Addie F. Each assistant and Doctor always make me feel so welcome and special when I come in and if I happen to have the same assistant back to back they remember our conversation from the time before. It’s been a long yet enjoyable journey with SVO and I will definitely be bringing my children here when it comes their time.
My son and I came to Shenandoah Valley Orthodontics for braces and Invisalign. If you are in the northern Virginia area and are in need of an Orthodontist I highly recommend Shenandoah Valley Orthodontics! The staff is wonderful, warm, kind and inviting, the office is state of the art complete with 3D printers that make retainers on site! This practice blew my mind. I’ve never seen anything quite like it! They also have a great referral program!
We're visiting the area from out of town and wouldn't you know, our daughter's retainer broke!Shenandoah Valley Orthdontics was able to see us quickly and she is thrilled with her new retainers.Wonderful!
