for fine adjustment or retention
The BiteMaintainer can also be used for fine adjustment or for the retention phase. In special cases, for example for position corrections, occlusal interferences and an undesirable lateral open bite caused by aligner treatment, a BiteMaintainer can also be used.
The orthocaps® BiteMaintainer is a type of positioner made of dental silicone. For cases treated with the orthocaps® system, we only need a lateral cephalogram along with a centric bite registration.
This method not only saves time for the practitioner, but also enables a more precise reconstruction than the traditional construction bite registration.
The BiteMaintainer can be used as a retention device as well as a device for fine-tuning a perfect occlusion.
