Is it possible to be allergic to a retainer?

Is it possible to wear a retainer after having dental implants or gum grafts?

  • It didn't occur to me to ask this question when I was at the dentist the other day, because I simply couldn't remember to ask everything. I had a ton of questions for him already, and I went for my initial consultation, x-rays, etc. I was deemed a candidate for 2 years of Invisalign. My dentist's current treatment plan has me getting a few dental implants after the Invisalign has moved some of my teeth around, in order to have more space for implants, where I have missing teeth that never existed. I have some considerable gum recession, but he also said that could wait until I was done with Invisalign. I know that he is the one I need to ask this, but until I go back again, I figure it's worth a shot on here just to get a general idea. I know the process of implants and also the process of gum grafts (I need a few in various areas). When I'm done with my Invisalign, I'll have to wear a retainer. I'm going to try to get one similar to the Invisalign trays...I think it's technically called an Essix retainer? Can I get dental implants and gum grafts (obviously not at the same time, together) and still be able to wear my retainer on top of them, in order to keep my teeth from moving back?

  • Answer:

    Absolutely.Yes,you can but take care of the implant too that your retainer will not not push too much because implant is also a sensitive case.God bless!
