Retainers
for fine adjustment or retention
BITE GYM
orthocaps® Quadhelix
The orthocaps® Quadhelix is a customized, pre-activated expansion appliance. It is manufactured after virtual planning of the expansion scope and adaptation of the appliance to 3D printed models. This method allows precise expansion of the dental arch and the simultaneous use of aligners while the transverse expansion is performed.
Preformed attachments
Attachments are usually necessary to transfer the forces exerted by the aligners more precisely to the difficultly positioned teeth. The pre-formed attachments improve the efficiency of tooth movement and are incorporated into the aligners. The attachments can be adapted to the patient’s tooth color and are therefore almost invisible when worn.
orthocaps® Clear Retainer
In order to stabilize the treatment result, patients should wear a splint for long-term retention after completing the aligner treatment. The orthocaps® Clear Retainers can be made from various materials on request. Three Clear Retainers are made for each jaw.
orthocaps® Lingualretainer
The retainer is a thin, orthodontic gold wire that is attached to the back of the front teeth with plastic. It prevents the teeth from moving back to their original position. The retainer is made in a transfer splint and can be bonded indirectly.
CERATAIN
CERATAIN is an innovative, digitally planned retainer manufactured using CAD technology made from a
polymer filled with ceramic with a very high level of precision.
The use of ceramic makes CERATAIN almost invisible and shatterproof.
Perfect wearing comfort and a pleasant feeling in the mouth.
The CERATAIN is supplied in a transfer key to make bonding with a glass ionomer simple and efficient.
