title: Effortless stabilization of lingual retainer wire using customized clip.
abstract: The accurate positioning of the fixed lingual bonded retainer wire is one of the challenging processes in bonding fixed retainer. Though several methods have been introduced to stabilize the lingual bonded retainer, each technique has an inherent draw back. To overcome this we have designed a customized clip which is similar to Kesling Seperator to aid in accurate and precise positioning of lingual retainer wire.
