Yes, we can scallop trim your retainers on request. Scalloped cut retainers are trimmed to match the shape of your gums, following the peaks between your teeth. Straight cut retainers are trimmed across the top of your gums. Research shows that straight-cut retainers stay in place better than scalloped cut retainers and are less likely to crack and brake over time. If you do prefer scalloped trim, just let us know on the comment card when returning impressions.
