- Abstract
Orthodontic retention aims to keep the bite and teeth in their corrected positions. Three main types of orthodontic retainers are distinguished: Hawley-type retainers, vacuum-formed retainers (VFRs), and fixed retainers. VFRs are inexpensive and well accepted by patients from an esthetic and comfort perspective. The following article describes an easy-to-use method for modifying VFRs for bimaxillary retention and the possibility of using them for active treatment.
