Are Invisalign’s Vivera Retainers right for you?<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>

Invisalign\u2019s Vivera retainers<\/strong> are custom made clear retainers that look very similar to clear aligners. However, unlike aligners that gradually move your teeth, they keep your teeth in place once you have finished orthodontic treatment. <\/p>

These clear retainers from Invisalign are made with state-of-the-art technology to retain your new smile. They are made from the same premium-grade SmartTrack™ material as Invisalign aligners but are slightly thicker so that they keep teeth in place and last for several years. <\/p>

Vivera aligners are designed not to break or lose their shape, but if they do, they come with back-ups so you can just switch them out easily. And, because your 3D imaging will be on file with Invisalign, reordering new ones is a simple process.<\/p>

Research suggests<\/a> that retainers are critical to maintaining the alignment and position of your teeth after orthodontic treatment, so it’s important that you choose ones that are functional and comfortable to wear. Vivera retainers tick all these boxes. Keep reading to learn more about their benefits. <\/p>

How much do Vivera retainers cost in the UK?<\/h2>

The cost of Vivera retainers will depend entirely on which dentist and practice you attend. However, prices in the UK can range between \u00a3125 – \u00a3200 for an upper and lower set and an average of \u00a3400 for 3 sets of upper and lower retainers.<\/p>

While it may seem that Invisalign\u2019s Vivera retainers cost<\/strong> more than other types of retainers such as fixed, Essix and Hawkley retainers, most of these other retainers are sold as single retainers, but Invisalign’s come as a set. So the cost per single Vivera retainer actually works out as less overall. <\/p>

The following table summarises the Invisalign retainer cost<\/strong> in comparison to other types of retainers. <\/p>

What are the benefits of Invisalign retainers?<\/h2>

These clear retainers from Invisalign offer many benefits over other retainers:<\/p>

  • According to Invisalign, their retainers are 30% stronger than other retainers. This makes them more durable and better at keeping your teeth aligned.<\/li>
  • They are lab-tested to last longer than other retainers.<\/li>
  • They are smooth and comfortable, with little irritation to the lips and mouth. This is mainly due to 3D imaging technology that creates a perfect fit.<\/li>
  • These retainers from Invisalign can be reordered easily because your 3D imaging is digitally stored for future reference. No additional appointments for impressions and imaging are needed.<\/li>
  • They should not affect your speech.<\/li> <\/ul>
