yes, you will be getting retainers after braces..
I'm getting my braces off in exactly a month (sept 9, haha) and I know that i'll be getting clear retainers for both my top and bottom row of teeth..

the point for them is to keep your teeth in place.. If you get your braces off, but don't put on retainers, then your teeth are going to go back to where they were.. It won't happen overnight, obviously (as getting them straight didn't do that) but it WILL happen if you don't wear them..

As for the metal ones, I'm not too sure if you wear those as well later on...... as far as I know, you wear either the metal ones or the clear ones, not one then the other.. But I'm not too experienced with orthodontics, so I hope what I have said helps..

Good luck! Health Question & Answer

most of the time you do.. it keeps the teeth aligned.. I don't know how long you'll have to wear it for though.. it varies person to person..

yes you do get retainers,
because after your braces get
taken off, your teeth are still
capable of retaining their previous shape..Health Question & Answer
