Labial bow and retention elements 0.7 mm spring hard, Orthocryl®
Function:
Retention
Description:
The retention plates are used after the active phase of orthodontic treatments for stabilizing the tooth position
The plates should include as few elements as possible to avoid disturbing the occlusion and to allow the teeth to stabilize with their own dynamic. The design of the bent wire elements is small.
The acrylic base is also designed delicately; this should be considered while making the wax limitation.
The acrylic base should be finished as thin as possible in order to avoid interfering with the occlusion.
