After Invisalign Treatment, What Type of Retainer Will I Get?

August 6, 2008
Asked By:MrsMelodie in Biloxi, MS

I was wondering when your done with the Invisalign treatment , I know you get a retainer and usually it is a clear retainer that looks exactly like invisalign. I heard that the metal Hawley retainers are best for when you are done with the treatment. Could I request that I want a metal retainer instead of a clear one?
