An innovative -LBRPIN
A fixed lingual retainer is a common method for maintaining incisor alignment following orthodontic treatment.Over the years, various techniques have been developed to effectively bond retainer wires, with the proper stabilization of these wires being a crucial step for orthodontists to prevent relapse.This study introduces a custom-made device designed to simplify fabrication, securely stabilize the retainer wire along the contours of the palatal surface, and reduce the risk of iatrogenic damage to adjacent soft tissues during the bonding process.
