Hawley Retainers & Phase 1, Removable Appliances

Hawley Wraparound

The Hawley Wraparound retainer is designed for effective retention, featuring a wraparound bow that provides stability with optional .022 support wires to further stabilize the bow. This design keeps the occlusal surfaces free, preventing interference and ensuring a comfortable fit. For those seeking a more modern approach, the Tremont Cantilever is an excellent alternative to the traditional wraparound. This appliance offers stability without the need for support wires, as technicians laser weld a .036 wire to the posterior of the omega loops, stabilizing the wraparound bow. The Tremont Cantilever also allows for easy adjustments with three-prong pliers to move the anterior section of the bow either more incisal or gingival, providing excellent retention and flexibility.

Who Made Me:

Dr. Begg first described the wraparound Hawley appliance in 1965. The wraparound Hawley retainer is often used as an alternative to the traditional Hawley retainer when there are occlusal interferences or when a settling effect is desired. The Hawley Wraparound retainer was developed to provide full coverage retention without interfering with the occlusion. This variation allows for better control over tooth position while still maintaining the key elements of the traditional Hawley design. It remains a popular choice for full-arch retention following comprehensive orthodontic treatment.
