Fixed lingual retainers (FLR) are one of the simplest ways for your patients to maintain their newly aligned smile.  It allows them to forget about caring for a removable retainer device, without affecting the visible esthetic of their smile.  Because the FLR remains in the patient’s mouth permanently, they will experience little, if any, relapse; some level of relapse often occurs with removable devices because they aren’t always worn as recommended.

When ordering a FLR for your patient, please indicate the type of stainless steel wire you prefer, as well as whether you want optional mesh pads.
