Flare Fit Retainer

The Greater Curve Flare Fit Retainer features flared forks designed to match the natural flare of the Greater Curve matrix band. This unique design helps keep the band securely positioned during tightening while improving interproximal adaptation and allowing versatile placement throughout the mouth.

Band flare matches Retainer flare.

Key Design Features & Advantages:

Improved Interproximal Adaptation — The flared forks match the natural flare of the matrix band, helping guide the band across the interproximal space and against the adjacent tooth. 

Reduced Band Breakage — Rounded, flared forks eliminate sharp corners and distribute tightening forces more evenly across the matrix band, helping reduce the risk of breakage.

Secure Band Retention — Taller forks help keep the matrix band seated within the retainer as the band is tightened around the tooth.

Accommodates Larger Teeth — A precision-fit vice allows for a larger matrix band loop, making placement around larger teeth easier.

Controlled Band Tails — The curved channel guides the matrix band tails along the body of the retainer, helping keep them away from the patient’s lip.

Versatile Placement — The contra-angle fork configuration allows the retainer to be positioned on the buccal, lingual, labial, or palatal side, providing flexibility for restorations throughout the mouth.
