The Effect of Preheating, Resin‐Based Composite, and Wire Types of Orthodontic Lingual Fixed Retainers on the Load at Failure: A Comparative In‐Vitro Study
The study shows preheating RBCs improves their load capacity, reducing lingual retainer adhesive debonding. Therefore, preheating flowable RBCs is effective for retention. Future research should explore different preheating temperatures and long-term outcome conditions.
