Bionators initially look like a sort of combined upper and lower Hawley retainer, but they are not bind to the teeth and are not used for post-brace removal treatment. Bionators are held in the mouth within the space that the teeth surround when biting. They are used to expand the palate and create space for incoming teeth. You should wear bionator all times except, when eating, when brushing your teeth or when engaging in active sports. Bionator should be brushed after each meal when the teeth are brushed, also it should be brushed with a toothbrush and a toothpaste.
