Ive never seen retainers quite like mine:

Re: Weird Hawley Retainers
I presume the springs are to make minor adjustments to the position of some of your teeth.
Sectional brace with Damon clear brackets fitted to front 6 upper teeth 3 January 2012
Brackets added to premolars 2 April 2012
Estimated treatment time originally 6-9 months. Brace removed on 22 July 2013 after 18 months and 19 days
Now enjoying bonded upper retainer plus part time essix/hawley( I have both)

Re: Weird Hawley Retainers
If the springs are, in fact, to make minor adjustments, will you be getting new ones once the adjustments are made?
