Occlusal Guard
Care INSTRUCTIONS
Pets love occlusal guards, so it's essential to keep them stored out of their reach.
Following the initial delivery of the guard, there might be an adjustment period. Kindly inform us if the guard feels uncomfortable or does not fit properly.
We recommend that you bring your guard to all future dental appointments for a professional cleaning and any necessary adjustments if treatment is administered.
To ensure a comfortable fit, some guards may require softening in hot water before being placed.
Refrain from using toothpaste to clean your guard. Instead, cleanse your guard between uses with an over-the-counter solution designed for oral devices, like Polident (available on Amazon). After removing your guard from the cleansing solution, gently scrub it with a toothbrush and rinse thoroughly.
Feel free to reach out to us via call or text at 303.779.9472 if you have any questions or concerns.
Clear Retainer
Care INSTRUCTIONS
Pets love retainers, so it's essential to keep them stored out of their reach.
Wear the retainer every night to prevent any shifting of your teeth.
We suggest that you bring your retainer to upcoming dental restorative treatment appointments for any necessary adjustments. In certain situations, a new retainer might be required.
Refrain from using toothpaste to clean your guard. Instead, cleanse your retainer between uses with an over-the-counter solution designed for oral devices, like Polident (available on Amazon). After removing your retainer from the cleansing solution, gently scrub it with a toothbrush and rinse thoroughly.
