Retainers
Clear Retainers
Clear retainers are similar to Invisalign® aligners. They are removable retainers that fit over the entire arch of teeth. Clear retainers have no metal wires and are virtually invisible. They are very durable, inexpensive and easy to wear. We now offer a lifetime retainer insurance for this type of retainer, see below for more details.
Hawley Retainers
The Hawley retainer is a removable retainer made of a combination of metal wires and sturdy acrylic, and is designed to keep your teeth in place. This retainer is specially made from impressions of your teeth so that it fits snugly and comfortably in the roof of your mouth, while any wire or acrylic framing keeps your teeth in perfect position.
Fixed Retainers
Bonded lingual retainers are cemented directly to the inside surface of your lower teeth. This is one of the best ways to prevent your lower teeth from shifting because it is permanently attached. As with removable retainers, it is important to keep them clean.
