Most patients with primary coccidioidomycosis are asymptomatic, but nonspecific respiratory symptoms resembling those of influenza, acute bronchitis, or, less often, acute pneumonia or pleural effusion sometimes occur.
By using retainers to hold the teeth in their new position for a length of time, the surrounding periodontal fibres are allowed to adapt to changes in the bone which can help minimize any changes to the final tooth position after the completion of orthodontic treatment.
A permanent retainer is like having braces on the back side of your lower teeth. Eventually, you have to let them go to see if the teeth will try to move. If they try to move, an orthodontist will make adjustments to the width of your teeth to relieve pressure.
