Retainers Overview

Specialty Appliances offers several types of active and passive retainer designs. We take pride in the quality of our wire bending and acrylic finishing. We offer a full selection of acrylic colors and designs. Please be sure to reference the Specialty Color Guide and the Acrylic Decal Designs when ordering retainers. We look forward to receiving a case from your practice. See below for a list of items our lab needs to process your next retainer case.

  • Retainer Rx Sheet
  • Upper and lower models poured in Class I or Class II stone. Some cases will only require upper or lower models. Both models are required if bite planes or habit cribs are added.
  • Wax bites are necessary only if centric occlusion is not obvious when articulating models.
