Dental cheek retractor
A pair of C-shaped plastic retractors used to hold the cheek during a view.
Last updated: September 2026
What this product is
C-shaped plastic cheek retractors are quoted from China as a pair of clinic accessories that hold a cheek aside during a chairside view, and the buyer is sourcing the plastic pair only. Clinic buyers should read this as an accessory quote rather than a medical device registration, and if the destination regulates cheek retractors, the registration work is separate and is not inside the unit price. Opening width, resin, surface finish, and pair bagging are the estimated quote drivers. A typical first order can change color and add a lot code on an existing mold, while a new opening size needs tooling. The brief should give the opening span, adult or smaller size in plain words, resin, color, and pairs per bag. Use the band as an indicative ex-works guide before freight. An approximate landed figure varies with resin grade and with whether each pair is pouched or bulk packed. Potential sharp edges on the C tips must be called out in inspection, and the listing must not claim a treatment effect.

Customization and private label
Color and a lot code can be added first, while a new opening width needs tooling.
Some customization is realistic on this kind of product. Private label packaging is often possible once artwork is approved. Read how private label manufacturing in China is handled, and when a new product needs the OEM/ODM path.
How the desk would source it
- Note 1. Specify opening width and pair packing before the resin lot is scheduled.
- Note 2. Keep registration, if required at destination, outside the unit price, and reject sharp C tips at inspection.
The usual path is the same as other China factory sourcing: confirm the spec, compare factories, sample, then inspect before shipment. China supplier verification and China quality inspection are available. Goods can be received at the Xiamen warehouse and moved through China warehouse consolidation or sea, air, and express freight.
