Detailed description

This study includes patients who have had previous orthodontic treatments (without tooth extraction) and who have good alignment of their lower incisors. Investigator will compare two types of lingual retainers made with CAD-CAM by comparing them with the traditional lingual retainers according to the following groups: 1. Patients will be apply to them a lingual retainer made of fibers manufactured using CAD-CAM technology 2. Patients will be apply to them a lingual retainer made of metal made using CAD-CAM technology 3. Patients will be apply to them a conventional lingual retainer made of braided stainless steel wire (control group)

Conditions

• Malocclusion, Angle's Class
