Treatment of Complications Associated with Lower Fixed Retainers
Volume 50 : Number 1 : Page 54 : Jan 2016
Bonded retainers are often used to maintain orthodontic treatment results, especially for an increasing number of practitioners advocating long-term or even lifelong retention. Although fixed retainers have been described as effective, safe and predictable, and compatible with periodontal health, long-term retention is not without risks. Failures of fixed retainers, as evidenced by debonding or fatigue wire fracture, are relatively common. Long-term use of fixed retainers is associated with increased calculus and plaque accumulation, with a consequent risk of gingival recession and increased probing depths.

In-House 3D-Printed Brackets: Design, Fabrication, and Clinical Application
Volume 60 : Number 4 : Page 269 : Apr 2026
This article describes the design and in-house fabrication of 3D-printed resin brackets using digital light processing (DLP) technology and Rhinoceros 7 CAD software. The authors detail the printing workflow, including printer calibration, resin selection, and UV postprocessing, followed by a two-phase treatment case in which the printed brackets are used in the second phase, highlighting the potential of in-house fabrication to expand bracket customization and reduce laboratory dependence.
