Retentive Components
Retention: Means whereby displacement of appliance is resisted.
Clasp: any hook or band attached to a natural tooth and used to anchor a partial denture or an orthodontic appliance.
![Page 7: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
CLASPS
The name clasp is derived from a French word “UYPTAN” which means “to embrace”. Clasps are the retentive components of the orthodontic appliances.
![Page 8: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
IDEAL REQUIREMENTS Unobtrusive. Not impinge. Close contact to the tooth. Usable in both deciduous and
permanent dentition. Adequate retention.
No active force on the anchor tooth. Rigid Easy to fabricate and also replace if
needed. Not interfere in the growth of jaws and
eruption of teeth.

• 0.7 mm wire used in active purpose • 0.9 mm wire used in passive purpose • Fabrication - same as short labial bow but
occlusal wire passes between two premolars • Activated by compressing the U-loop
![Page 39: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Roberts retractor
• It was first designed by G.H Robert• Indication
it is suitable only for retraction of four incisors following retraction of canines
![Page 40: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
• This is a flexible bow which is constructed from 0.5 or 0.6 mm wire inserted into a stainless steel tubing to give support to either end of the bow
![Page 41: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Fabrication Labial segment of wire is placed at the junction of the incisal and middle third Extends only two thirds of the mesiodistal width of the lateral incisorsA coil of 3mm internal diameter placed mesial to canineDistal part is supported in a stainless steel tubing
![Page 42: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• It is activated by closing the coil or giving palatal bend at the emergence of the coil
![Page 43: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Reverse labial bow
• Indication For retaining tooth positions For minor tooth movements
![Page 44: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
• 0.7 mm wire used • Fabrication:-loops are placed distal to the
canine and the free ends of the U-loops are adapted occlusally between the premolar and canine
![Page 45: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• This is too stiff for effective incisor retraction • The stability ratio is poorActivation First the U-loop is opened this results in lowering of
the labial bow in the incisor region . A compensatory bend is given at the base of the
loop
![Page 46: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Begg’s labial bow(Wrap Around / Around the Globe Bow)
• Popularized by P.R . Begg• It is used as retainer after fixed orthodontic
therapy • 0.9 mm wire is used
![Page 47: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
• Fabrication consists of labial wire that extends till the last erupted
molar U-loop is incorporated at the pre molar and molar area
to close the band spaces
![Page 48: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
• Advantage of this bow is that there is no cross- over wire between the canine and premolar there by eliminating the risk of space opening up
![Page 49: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

SPRINGS
Most commonly used active elements
Requirements: springs should deliver optimum force should possess high degree of elasticity should have long range of action
![Page 57: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Force systems delivered depend onIntrinsic properties- cannot be altered by operator -modulus of elasticity-yield strengthExtrinsic properties- operator can exercise control-length of wire -thickness of wire
Small changes in diameter and length have a profound impact on the force delivered
![Page 58: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Effect of wire diameter on force delivered-amount of activation0.5mm- 3mm activation0.7mm- 1mm activation- little margin of error
Effect of wire lengthCoil- increase length of springLower force with same amount of activation
![Page 59: Removable Orthodontic Appliances Analhaq Shaikh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081420/587171581a28ab58758b78f9/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
