The LingLockTM is a fixed bonded retainer from canine to canine in the lower front made up of separate, but co-working retention elements in the ceramic material aluminium oxide (Al2O3). The LingLockTM retainer enables the patient to floss the teeth in a regular manner in the actual retention area.
