Invisalign retainers are made of a patented thermoplastic material designed specifically for orthodontic treatment. They are customized to fit your teeth perfectly and are virtually invisible. Invisalign retainers are excellent for those who want a discreet treatment option.

Essix retainers are made of clear, transparent plastic and are molded to fit your teeth. They are slightly more visible than Invisalign retainers, but still provide a subtle, understated look.

Hawley retainers are made of a metal wire and acrylic material and are a more traditional option. They are highly effective and durable, but also quite visible.
