Abstract:
A custom lingual retainer is construced by custom fitting a preformed base into the lingual fossa of a tooth. A wire, which extends beyond the tooth, is attached thereto. A custom lingual retainer so produced is bonded by applying a bonding adhesive to a surface of the metal base of the retainer and positioning the metal base in the lingual fossa of the tooth.
