Do you get to choose what retainer you want?!
Question: Do you get to choose what retainer you want?
Answers:
yes theyre are three kinds. the thin plastic ones that look like invisalign, the metal ones that are the most standard retainer, and their are permantant ones.
have braces and have had them for about 2 years now and im close to getting them off.
You can choose a essix or a hawley retainer
Hawley are the normal wire retainers
Essix is the clear plastic.
I would personally take permeant retainers because they don't get in your way. I have a hawley for the top and a permanent for the bottom ! Its whatever your comfort level is :)
Congradulations on getting them off ! ALways exciting !
Everybody i know gets to pick a color
but my dentists didnt let me pick a color
I would ask just in case, it wouldnt sound mean or anything, its not worth it to try to be more polite to not ask then u have to spend all this time with a retainer color you HATE
Hope i helped:)
and good luck
Sadly you don't get to chose the actual retainer type you want but you do get to choose the colors :)
