Risks

For All The Smiles LLC Clear retainers and guards may involve some dangers and are not suitable for all clients. These could include and not limited to::

Allergic Reaction – Some customers may develop an allergy to the materials used to construct your retainers and guards. If you develop an adverse reaction, please discontinue use immediately and tell us and your primary care physician.

Black Triangles – Long-term overlapping teeth may lack gum tissue, and when these teeth are aligned, a "black triangle" forms below the interproximal contact.

Cavities, Gum, or Periodontal Disease – During the use of retainers and guards, cavities, tooth decay, periodontal disease, inflammation of the gums, and permanent markings (e.g. decalcification) may arise or accelerate. These reactions are more likely to occur if you consume a lot of sugary foods or beverages, do not brush and floss your teeth before putting on the retainers and guards, or do not visit your dentist at least every six months for preventative checkups. In other cases, discoloration or white patches may also appear; minor cavities may enlarge, producing sensitivity and, in some cases, discomfort or tooth fracture; gingival inflammation may rise, resulting in irritation or bleeding. If underlying periodontal diseases are left untreated, they may spread and cause tooth loss. You may be required to discontinue wearing your retainers and guards. All of these symptoms necessitate consultation with a dentist of your choosing.

Damage to Nerves in Teeth – Tooth movement may hasten nerve damage or nerve death, resulting in the need for a root canal, additional dental procedures, or tooth loss. It is impossible to anticipate which consumers will suffer nerve damage, although those who have suffered tooth injury or restoration work are at a greater risk. If your family dentist identifies nerve damage before to or during your aligner therapy, it may be necessary to halt your treatment or permanent tooth loss may result.

Dislodgement of Crown, Bridges and Fillings : Please be aware that there is a possibility that during impression taking, putty may cause dislodgment of bridges, crowns, veneers, and or fillings. For All The Smiles LLC is not responsible for any such occurrences. If you feel you have any loose crowns, bridges, veneers, or fillings, please seek immediate attention from your local dentist before taking impressions for your retainers or guards.

Discomfort – Your mouth is sensitive, so you can anticipate a time of adjustment and minor discomfort as a result of tooth movement. Additionally, you may have gum, cheek, or lip irritation until these tissues acclimate to the contact with the retainers and guards. In addition, your bite may shift during therapy, which may cause temporary discomfort. Your bite may need to be adjusted after using retainers and guards.

General Health Issues – Overall medical issues such as bone, blood, or hormone diseases, as well as numerous prescription and over-the-counter medications (including bisphosphonates), might alter tooth movement and result.

Impacted and Supernumerary Teeth – It is possible for teeth to get impacted or lodged behind the bone or gums. Occasionally, certain clients are born with "extra" or supernumerary teeth. If you have impacted, unerupted, or extra teeth, aligners may not be the best choice for you. If you have teeth that are impacted, you can use the Impression Kit to discover if For All The Smiles LLC is suitable for you.

Oral Piercings – During the course of retainers and guards, piercings are contraindicated and should be removed. In certain instances, failure to do so could result in fractured retainers and guards or broken teeth, causing the treatment to be terminated.

Previous Dental Treatment – Implants cannot be moved by retainers and guards, and some dental restorations, including bridges, may be ineffective. Moreover, tooth displacement may necessitate replacement of dental restorations such as crowns, veneers, and bridges.

Safety – retainers and guards may be broken, ingested, or inhaled. You may potentially experience an allergic response to the retainers and guards’ components.

Root Resorption - During the use of retainers and guards, the roots of certain patients' teeth become shorter (resorption). It is impossible to anticipate who will suffer it, however clients who have previously had braces are at a greater risk. Resorption may have an effect on the long-term health of teeth. During orthodontic treatment, if your family dentist detects resorption, treatment may need to be terminated or irreversible tooth loss may ensue. If a primary (or "baby") tooth is present, any orthodontic movement would hasten its loss by accelerating the resorption process.

Supraeruption — If a tooth is not well covered by an aligner, it may move outwards (supraeruption), resulting in cleaning difficulties, gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss.

Transient Side Effects — Because retainers and guards are in your mouth, you may experience temporary changes in your speech or salivary flow while using retainers and guards.

Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJ) – During retainers and guards, difficulties may arise in the jaw joints, producing pain, headaches, or ear problems.
