Summary

After orthodontic treatment 3 different retention devices will be compared.Thirty patients in each group; Group 1) Bonded retainer 13-23, Group 2)Bonded retainer 12-22 and Group 3) Vacuum-formed retainer covering all erupted teeth in the maxilla. Retention capacity between these three devices will be compared after 2 years of retention by measuring Contact Point displacements (CPD) between 6 anterior teeth and sum of 5 anterior CPDs called Little´s Irregularity Index (LII).

Conditions

  • Orthodontic Appliance Complication

Interventions

OTHER

Measuring changes of Little´s irregularity index ( sum of 5 contact point discrepancies together) measured in mm 2 years after retention have been I place.

Measuring changes occurred under 2 years which the retention devices have been in place between the groups
