Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present a new type of orthodontic removable retainer, which is of great help to the orthodontist as well as to the patient. The procedures of fabrication are described. The Reinforced Removable Retainer (Triple "R" Retainer) is well tolerated, adaptable, and easy to fit and remove. Its main advantage is that it is not easy to break, less bulky, and very retentive.
