Clear-Lock Retainers for Life, from Glidewell, provide a more convenient service for patients who have had orthodontic treatment. With each Clear-Lock Retainer prescribed, the patient’s upper and lower models are digitally scanned and the 3-D digital data is stored for 30 years.
Replacement retainers can be reordered from the digitally stored data through faxed or e-mailed prescription from the dentist, freeing the patient from return office visits for impressions. Each Clear-Lock Retainer prescription comes with 3 single retainers (3 uppers or 3 lowers) or 6 retainers (1 set of 3 uppers and 3 lowers), so the patient always has spares on hand.
