Types of Retainers
There are three main kinds of retainers commonly used after braces, Invisalign®, clear aligners, and other orthodontic treatments:
Hawley Retainers
Hawley retainers are one of the most common types of orthodontic retainers used after braces or Invisalign®. Made from durable acrylic and stainless-steel wire, these custom retainers help maintain tooth alignment and prevent teeth from shifting after orthodontic treatment.
Many patients choose Hawley retainers because they are durable, adjustable, and easy to clean. At G Orthodontics, we provide custom Hawley retainers in Houston designed to help protect your smile and maintain long-term orthodontic results..
Clear or “Essix” retainers
Clear or Essix retainers are custom-made transparent retainers designed to keep your teeth in their ideal position after braces or Invisalign® treatment. Made from durable, clear plastic, these retainers fit comfortably over your teeth and provide a discreet way to maintain your orthodontic results.
Many patients prefer clear retainers because they are nearly invisible, comfortable to wear, and easy to remove for eating and brushing. At G Orthodontics, we provide custom clear retainers in Houston to help patients protect their smiles and prevent unwanted tooth movement.
Permanent retainers
Permanent retainers, also known as bonded or fixed retainers, are attached to the back of the front teeth to help maintain proper alignment after braces or Invisalign® treatment. Unlike removable retainers, permanent retainers work continuously to prevent teeth from shifting and help preserve your orthodontic results.
Many patients choose permanent retainers because they are discreet, effective, and require no daily removal or replacement. At G Orthodontics, we provide custom permanent retainers in Houston to help patients maintain a healthy, confident smile for years to come.
