Retainer Case (Self-Draining)
Print Profile(1)
Description
A small, compact retainer/invisalign storage box, which allows the easy drainage of water, reducing risk of bacteria.
The retainer case internals create lift for your invisalign/retainers, allowing excess water to drip onto the slope, leading the water out the back of the case. Ventilation through the lid further allows your contents to dry more efficiently, avoiding unwanted bacteria.
The boxes design is compact and rugged, when closed the box locks, and the indentations create a comfortable way to open it and the hinges allow steady opening and closing. Additionally, the retainer case does not need supports.
Images display water drainage, additionally a little shake when angled helps move the excess water out the case.
SIZING
The files can be scaled to liking, but the Retainer Case is able to fit retainers/invisalign with a width up to 62mm (2.4 inches) and the Large Retainer Case is able to fit retainers/invisalign with a width up to 74mm (2.9 inches). If there are any concerns for sizing or you don't know how to size for your one, just comment and I will help.
ASSEMBLY
I had printed in PLA and the hinges were easily able to connect through lining up one hinge and then simply pressing the other one into place. If there are any difficulties or confusion, please leave a comment and I will help.
If you are having difficulties slotting in the hinges, try to shave off parts of the connecting hinge part (Part of the lid), and it might make enough clearance to work, if not, please leave a comment.
