Post by: Quetzqual on 24. December 2004, 11:22:25 AM: My favorite color is a clear bright blue, but in a retainer I would love about anything, as long as I can either wear it myself or play around with it on my girlfriend.

Post by: Der 7schlaefer on 11. March 2006, 20:54:17 PM: first of all, i have so say sorry about my bad english, i hope you understand what i mean.

now, mainly the color is not decisived, but in here it´s asked for, so... hmm ... i think something plain would be "nice". whether now fiercely or weakly play´s no role. nevertheless, pictures should stay outside please .... and multicolored aren´t my favorite (like a rainbow or somethink else). quite with pleasure seen, but not necessarily liked.

I have a friend from Deutschland she has two clear retainers, she always shows them to me...it's awesome!

Post by: Raoul Duke on 27. December 2007, 16:32:34 PM: I'd prefer clear like furluvgirl.

(I like braces for the wire, so the plastic parts shouldn't be prominently coloured)

Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: chili on 07. December 2010, 22:34:21 PM: classic transparent pink. But also the 70th style, opaque pink, from the same plastic dentures were made of.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?

Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: lms24 on 19. May 2012, 11:58:41 AM: I think it is best if the retainer has a very strong color like bright green.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Pascal1619 on 19. May 2012, 17:41:04 PM: i think pink clear is the best colour for retainers

Post by: 8749 on 28. February 2015, 01:43:03 AM: bright red
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Roland on 20. May 2015, 17:32:29 PM: I like retainers at different colors like green, blue or red. But the red shades like me at the time best. I particularly like the see-through (transparent) Retainer. What are me do not like colorful Retainer that have multiple colors. Even pictures on Retainer I think that is wrong. Because I liked several colors I can tick no concrete answer.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Libra on 17. January 2016, 23:24:57 PM: people still get coloured ones? my one is just transparent
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: KidFrost51 on 30. May 2016, 18:59:28 PM: I don't think I could pick a single best of favorite color. I like just about any color with glitter added in whether clear, pink, purple, or even bright fluorescent colors. There are too many choices to pick just one!
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: coffeemate on 15. June 2016, 05:52:30 AM: I got clear acrylic for my fakes, thinking it would be less obvious for long-term wear. But I like to see bright colors for others.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: retained on 16. June 2016, 00:19:25 AM: I also got mine in clear acrylic for the same reason. My bite plate doesn't have a front wire and although the plastic is level with the edge of my teeth, I didn't want it to be too obvious for full time wear.
Also have natural flesh pink Hawleys.

Post by: bracessd on 25. October 2017, 17:48:52 PM: Blue for sure
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Fraenkelstein on 30. October 2017, 12:10:46 PM: Voted clear red, but there's something to be said for purple as well. Of course, when I got a plate when I was a kid, I was too scared to pick anything other than the normal color. :-[

Post by: bracesfanza on 22. November 2017, 03:43:59 AM: the gum coloured retainers of yesteryear
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: radian on 23. November 2017, 10:36:43 AM: I voted for the common pink clear but I am not a big fan of retainers. I do prefer what it is fixed.

Post by: Misluposu on 01. November 2018, 20:29:44 PM: I think the purple color is the absolute best for a retainer, dark purple, very visible :)

Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Headgear-compliance on 07. June 2020, 07:40:28 AM: Any shade of blue, or a bright color (like yellow or pink).
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: elio23145 on 19. July 2020, 19:02:54 PM: I never knew there are so many colors. I had the gum color but I think pink is cool
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: michaelm on 20. July 2020, 00:39:11 AM: I like pink and purple most.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Embracer on 20. July 2020, 19:34:19 PM: My first hawley was clear, which I liked until it became discoloured by drinking coffee. So when I ordered a new one, I got transparent pink. I only wear it at night, so coffee is not a problem.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: duncombec on 30. July 2020, 01:29:08 AM: I'd have to go for clear acrylic, which was the colour of my removable, or the sort of translucent pink colour that also seems to have been very popular. Just as long as they are Hawleys!
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: peterKE on 05. October 2020, 17:26:51 PM: Transparent clear is the necest. Also gum color or transparent pink or light blue. No glitter, rainbow, no solid colors except pink.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Qwertj on 09. January 2021, 08:08:38 AM: Probably neon green or a teal blue.

Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: eddiestobbart on 11. August 2021, 13:18:30 PM: Just found this poll - it's interesting to see all the colours listed like this and I think if I were having to choose it might be quite difficult as the range is overwhelming. If it's about seeing them on others then solid strong colours are best - I like them to be noticeable, and why not celebrate your treatment with a bright eye catching colour?
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Qwertj on 11. September 2021, 22:16:02 PM: I like dark navy blue.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: braces37 on 29. September 2021, 07:57:12 AM: For me, nothing beats the classic pink!
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: lalala on 20. March 2022, 21:18:39 PM: Dark blue opaque. Much as I love ortho I'm not much a fan of retainers in general. I prefer fixed appliances and a sort of "finality" of getting them removed with nothing to come in their place.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Teddybear on 18. July 2022, 23:38:28 PM: I prefer colors that go well with the gum, like red or pink. But a nice blue with some glitter would be cool as well
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Milva on 26. August 2022, 14:56:58 PM: I'd go for bright blue or green

Imho
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: peterKE on 31. October 2022, 21:07:33 PM: Clear acrylic is my choice. But gum color is fine too.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: RetainedJms on 11. January 2023, 01:20:00 AM: Has to be either totally clear or the translucent pink gum colour for me. Although I also appreciate large bulky appliances in a more obvious solid colour like blue or orange.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: TonyBracesandSpecs on 15. January 2023, 18:17:46 PM: I like clear acrylic or gum colours as I think they make 'self prescribed' (i.e fake) devices look more authentic.
Title: Re: Which colour do you like best for retainers?
Post by: Bracesx3 on 29. July 2023, 18:46:35 PM: I never had a choice. Both previous times they were vermillion opaque from 2 different orthodontists. I’m not sure what I would prefer, discretion with a lisp or flamboyance with a lisp.
