A fixed retainer, the one bonded behind your teeth, is from £173 per arch at YOR Dental. A clear removable one is from £194. Keep losing or cracking yours? A pack of three sets is from £473, and that works out cheaper per set.

Which one you need depends on your teeth and how you are with retainers. The fixed one just stays put, so there’s no tray to remember. With the removable one, you’ve got to wear it as advised and keep it somewhere safe when it’s out. And if a fixed one comes loose, we can re-bond it for £87.

If yours is lost or cracked, don’t leave it. Teeth can start to drift once you stop wearing a retainer, so get a replacement sorted quickly.
