Environmental sustainability of post-orthodontic dental retainers: a comparative life-cycle assessment of Hawley and Essix retainers
Conclusions:
On the basis of the evidence gathered in this study, Hawley
retainers are more environmentally sustainable than Essix retainers.
These results would better enable clinicians to factor in the
environmental impact and make informed decisions on the choice of
retainer type.
