Dental study finds better way to glue retainers, cuts emergency visits

NCT ID NCT03954145

Summary

This study tested if sandblasting teeth before gluing on a permanent lower retainer makes it come loose less often than the standard cleaning method. It involved 88 people in France, aged 11 and older, who had just finished braces. The goal was to find a more reliable way to keep teeth straight after orthodontic treatment and reduce unplanned dental visits.
