This report describes the In-Situ Measurement of Incisor Drift after Release of Teeth from Braces, by using MTI 2000 Fotonic Sensor. The progress and ideas on the fabrication of prototype, “retainer”, is documented. With the initial use of dental impression material to the refinement of thermo foami...
