About this document
Preventing Relapse in Orthodontics by Muhammad Asim is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses strategies for preventing relapse after closing diastemas. It recommends archwire removal during treatment to check for potential relapse and diverging incisor roots to promote stability. Specific cases are presented where diastemas were closed with no retention needed by using archwire removal multiple times and diverging lateral roots to increase stability. Modified mechanics using two anterior segments are also suggested to close diastemas without risking root damage.
