Widely used braided steel wire retainers have been the gold standard for orthodontists for over 40 years. While having obvious advantages, wire retainers tend to undergo fixation failure and breakage due to methodological and manual errors during emplacement. This leads to the need to position a new retainer, which has financial costs for the patient. The aim of the present work was to develop and test a methodology for designing and manufacturing individual retainers using multislice computed tomography (MSCT) data from patients using three-dimensional modelling. Individual retainers made from 12Kh18N1OT medical steel using electroerosive technology on the basis of the patient's MSCT data are easy to manufacture and position optimally and predictably on the surface of the teeth. The proposed technique provides for virtual planning of the fixation of fixed retainers in anatomically difficult areas of the dental arch. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
