Configuration Guide

Upper/Lower Jaw

Choose which part of your mouth the appliance will be made for:

  • Upper Jaw: Appliance fits only the upper teeth.

  • Lower Jaw: Appliance fits only the lower teeth.

  • Upper & Lower Jaw: Includes two appliances, one for each jaw.

Acrylic Color

Pick your favorite color for the acrylic base of the appliance. This option allows you to add a personal flair. We offer a wide range of vibrant and subtle colors.

Add Glitter

Add shimmering silver glitter to the acrylic for a sparkling finish.

Palate Design

Select the type of palatal coverage:

Full Palatal Plate

Covers the entire roof of the mouth.

Horseshoe Palatal Plate

U-shaped for a more open, tongue-friendly fit.

Add-ons

Headgear Tubes

Add stainless steel tubes to the appliance for compatibility with facebow-type orthodontic headgear.

Tongue Crib

A tongue crib helps discourage tongue thrusting and assists in breaking habits like thumb sucking.

Reverse Pull Hooks

Add special hooks to the appliance for attachment to a reverse-pull face mask. Commonly used in orthopedic correction of underbites (Class III malocclusions).

Acrylic-Covered Labial Bow

Add a layer of acrylic over the labial bow (the front wire across the teeth) for enhanced comfort and aesthetics. This option helps reduce metal visibility and can make the appliance feel smoother against the lips – great for customers with sensitivity or cosmetic preferences.

Add Cheek Guards

Add smooth acrylic cheek guards to the sides of the appliance to reduce irritation from wires or components rubbing against the inner cheeks. This option improves comfort, especially for customers with sensitive cheeks or those prone to irritation from orthodontic appliances.

Extra-Thick Acrylic

Choose extra-thick acrylic for added strength and durability. Ideal for customers who require a sturdier appliance due to heavy wear, strong bite forces, or for those who simply prefer a more robust feel. Note that this may add some bulk compared to the standard acrylic thickness.

Add Lip Bumper

Add a lip bumper, a U-shaped, acrylic-covered wire shield positioned in front of the lower teeth, designed to keep the lower lip away from the teeth and reduce lip pressure. This helps in creating space by allowing the back teeth to move naturally and preventing the lower lip from exerting unwanted forces on the front teeth. Often used in orthodontic treatment to assist with arch development and alignment.

Additional Expansion Screw

Add an extra expansion screw to the appliance for enhanced or multi-directional expansion. This option is useful when greater or segmented expansion is needed – for example, expanding different parts of the arch independently. It is commonly selected for complex orthodontic cases requiring more precise control over tooth and arch movement.

Tongue Bead (Pearl)

Add a small, smooth tongue bead (also called a pearl) to the center of the upper appliance. This tactile training aid encourages proper tongue positioning by providing a physical point of contact for the tongue tip. Commonly used to help correct tongue thrust habits, improve swallowing patterns, and support speech development.

Add Impression Kit

If you donโ€™t already have dental impressions or digital scans, select this option to receive our easy-to-use impression kit, complete with instructions.

Hawley Retainers are designed to keep your teeth from shifting. This is the same product you would receive from your orthodontist after an orthodontic treatment – directly from the dental laboratory and without the cost of an in-office visit.

    Exellent

    I used to love my braces in my orthodontic treatment, so I decided to buy a retainer (top and bottom) to have the same feeling in my mouth. I am very surprised of the quality of my appliance. Thank you so much Bracesshop

    Ausserordentlich gute Passform

    Ich liebe diesen Retainer sehr, weil er mich an meine frรผhere Behandlung erinnert. Gerne wollte ich dieses Gefรผhl wieder haben. Der Retainer ist langlebig gebaut und hochwertig.

    Die ideale Spange fรผr den Alltag. Dezent aber toll in Wirkung und Optik. Habe bei der Unterkiefer Spange noch Pelotten anbringen lassen. Unbedingt empfehlenswert

    Mir geht es genauso. Ich liebte das Spangengefรผhl wรคhrend meiner Behandlung. Daran erinnern mich heute noch die Retainer. Die ideale Spange fรผr den Alltag. Diskret aber toll in Wirkung und Optik. Habe bei der Unterkiefer Spange noch Pelotten anbringen lassen. Unbedingt empfehlenswert!

    Wonderful work

    I had braces three times in my life (at 15, at 26 and at 36) and I’ve always loved this feeling of having metal (or retainers) in your mouth. It was my first order, and I’m pretty sure it won'(t be the last !
    The retainers fits very well, no pain and are very well made. I’m a (very) happy customer wearing proudly my nice retainers !!!

    Excellent

    Very satisfied with my order. The braces are beautiful (the upper one fits perfectly, the lower one needs some slight adaptation – a matter of a few days). Despite the festive season, service was prompt. The seller’s responsiveness was excellent. I’ll be ordering again for sure!

    Great product

    I normally wear an Essix type clear retainer, but I had the feeling that it didnโ€™t let my teeth move into place to have a perfect byte.
    Since I wear this new Harley retainer the teeth have been allowed to move just a little bit to improve the byte, but the alignment remains perfect.
    Also, as it turns out, my boyfriend loves when I wear it, including the light lisp I have with it.

    I’m obsessed with me order! The customer service is reliable and fast.

    I am going to write a detailed review about my order. This is the second hawley retainers I have ordered at Bracesshop. But now I have 4 wisdom teeth added to the new hawley retainers.
    The order (upper and lower Hawley retainers with wisdom teeth and has no labial bows) arrived safely and in good condition. The ordering process takes about 5 weeks (including impression kit)
    The first few days were of course a bit of getting used to. My speech was good right away, which certainly surprised. A small downside is that my tissue at the back of my jaw became sensitive and it turned out to be a small sharp piece of acrylic. So I smoothed that out and since then I have not had any problems! In some places it was a bit tight, but luckily you get used to that quickly. But that does mean that they stay in place! They also do not move in my mouth.
    It took 5 days to get used to it. I wear them every day, even at work. I can also eat with them. I have to say that the wisdom teeth are super realistic in my mouth and the wisdom tooth shade (A3) matches my natural teeth super well! And the gum color acrylic makes it so natural. The braces themselves are well and strongly made for daily use, even the wisdom teeth are firmly attached! The wisdom teeth rest well on my gums, luckily I have room for that in my jaws. Now that I’m used to it, the wisdom teeth braces feel very nice and good! I also assume that they will last a long time and that is also what I hope.
    I have to say that I am super happy with it and that I really enjoy wearing it! Every day with pleasure! Because I had been looking forward to having a complete set of teeth for a long time (32 teeth and molars). Now I am really happier with my teeth! And it even makes me more self-confident. I am really super grateful and I will always remain a customer of yours! Bracesshop must exist forever! Keep up the great work!! And I think it’s really special that you can make this for me (I also think you haven’t experienced this to make this) Again I’m very happy with it. Thank you so much Bracesshop! Thanks to you this is possible!
    Greetings from the happy customer,
    Femke.
