Hawley Wrap Around Orthodontic Retainer Dental Acrylic Palate
Product Name: Wrap Around Retainer
Description:
The Wrap Around Hawley is often the clinician’s alternative when
occlusal interferences exist with a traditional Hawley retainer or
when a settling in effect is desired. The wrap around design
eliminates occlusal interferences or opening interproximal
contacts. This design is often the second-choice retention
appliance due to the long span of the labial arch wire. The great
distance between supports leaves the labial wire susceptible to
distortions if the patient uses the wire to remove the appliance.
Patients should be instructed to “scoop” the appliance out from the
palate with their thumb or index finger. Adept patients will be
able to create a suction with their tongue removing the appliance.
