Retención durante el tratamiento temprano.

Abstract

In this review some of the devices used for early treatment in children are described, and the retention phase is analyzed as an important step in maintaining the efforts and results obtained during the active treatment phase. Retention and fixation are considered the main pillars in multiple disciplines of dentistry not only in orthodontics. Interceptive orthodontic treatments often consist of a series of actions, steps and measures to solve the problems of developing dental, muscular, or skeletal, of growing patients; reducing the need for complex orthodontic treatment that may include permanent teeth extractions or orthognathic surgery.
