We offer retention options to suit your patients' individual preferences.

Key Benefits of Hawley Retainers

• Longevity and Repairability: Made from sturdy acrylic and rigid stainless steel wire, they resist warping from accidental heat exposure and can often be repaired if damaged.
• Minor Re-alignment: If slight shifting occurs, an orthodontist can adjust the labial bow (front wire) to push teeth back into place without needing a brand-new retainer.
• Bite Optimization: Because the acrylic only covers the palate or the inside of the dental arch, the chewing surfaces of your teeth touch normally, helping your bite "settle" into a comfortable position post-treatment.

Key Benefits of Clear Retainers

• Cosmetic Appeal: Their transparent, slim design makes them highly popular for teens and adults who want to maintain their smile without a visible wire.
• Precise Rotational Control: Because they wrap tightly around the entire contours of every single tooth, they are exceptionally good at holding strict anterior (front tooth) alignments.
• Enamel Safeguard: Acting as a barrier between your arches, they double as a lightweight nightguard to prevent wear and tear from teeth grinding.
