Clear Orthodontic retainers
are custom made devices made usually of clear plastic and wires that hold teeth in position after surgery or any method of realigning teeth. Most patients are bear to wear their retainers every night at first and then go to the normal work.
There are four main types of retainers
prescribed by dentists and orthodontics. These are Essix, Zendura, Bonded and
Hawley retainers from Sporting Smiles Clinic.
1- Hawley Retainer:
It is one
of the best and famous types that are strongly recommended by dentists it
includes a metal wire that typically surrounds the six interior teeth and keeps
them in place. The advantage of this type of retainer is that the metal wires
can be adjusted to finish treatment and continue the minor movement of the
interior teeth as needed. Recently the new advanced version of the Hawley
retainer has been developed this retainer is intended to be adjustable in a
similar manner to the traditional Hawley retainer. The original Clear bow named
QCM was developed to finish the look of wires across the facial surface of the
arch.
2-Fixed Retainers:
This is an
entirely different category of orthodontic retainers. A fixed retainer
typically consist of a passive wire bonded to the tongue side of the incisors
Unlike all the other types of retainers fixed retainers are not be remove by
the patients. Some doctors prescribed fixed retainers regularly specially for
the straightness of the teeth and other treatments. As with dental braces
patients often use floss threaders to pass the dental floss through the small
space between the retainer and the teeth.

and retainer treatment material with excellent stress relaxation resistance

doctors and dentists in different treatments such as retainer’s surgical
splints, bleeding trays, and temporary bridges. It plays an important role in
making easier treatment in dental surgeries and treatments.
