Preventing the rebound of orthodontics;
1. Breaking bad oral habits: Biting lips, spitting out tongue and other bad oral habits must be completely broken before the retainer is removed.
2. Early treatment: Orthodontic treatment can achieve a stable effect during the period of vigorous growth and development of the jaw. For cases such as tooth distortion, early treatment is recommended.
3. Overcorrection of teeth, such as deep overbite or opening and closing, should be corrected as over-correction of normal overbite. The same treatment should be done for twisted teeth, and over-treatment can often prevent recurrence after treatment.
4. Sometimes, after the severely twisted teeth are treated, if the natural retention cannot be achieved only by mechanical retention, it is necessary to cut off the fibers around the tooth neck to obtain stable results, which can reduce the retention time.
5. Orthognathic surgery. Simple mechanical correction is difficult to improve malocclusion, and often requires surgical treatment, such as mandibular protrusion deformity, opening and closing deformity and so on.
6. Permanent retention: In some cases, long-term wearing of retainer can not prevent recurrence, such as abnormal nail-shaped lateral incisors, space between upper and middle incisors, severe tooth distortion and permanent tooth loss. Fixed restorations such as crowns and bridges or removable partial dentures are usually used as permanent retention in clinic.
