Thank you for doing this tutorial! I work at a denture lab and had my first request for Adams clasps from a new dentist for a stayplate. I have previously used C-clasps, I- clasps and ball clasps and never had requests for anything else. Your video really helped me out of a jam! They turned out great!

[@crndlab]

Thank you very much for these videos. I used to send my wire bending out to a neighboring lab, but your thorough explanation of the process taught me how to bend my own. Thank you!

[@desperado2005]

Dude i took a look at the appliance once and managed to do my own way, except mine started by making the arrowhead on one side and bending the 45-50 to get the same form. But after seeing that move with the arrowhead i'm going your way, you got skills :D

[@humansoultalks]

can you do videos on preclinical stuff like straightening wires, circle, triangle, u-v bands etc?

[@silviapena6337]

I would like to see how you bend the reverse labial bow. Do you have a video on how to make it? Your videos are very helpful. Thank You.

[@RetainerDesigner]

I will look into doing that one. I think I did one but it must have been during one of my live streams but never mentioned it. Next time one comes in I will record it.

[@rhullinger05]

Very helpful video. Great instructions and explanations!

[@mido33333]

as a dentistery student i used like the most of us to hate orthodontics because of bending :) tell i see your tutorial i like it now somehow . zhanks alot

[@hkmelbournewong4594]

Hi I think your Video is really helpful. But could you also teach on how to do the lingual retainer and W arch for me. I really confused and struggled with them.

[@FraitStin]

WOW, that’s how a real pro do that ahah ! Well done !

[@kanatdegenbaev4041]

Thank you for videoing your passion. I like your model holder

[@RetainerDesigner]

THank YOu! Almost cant bend wire without it! haha!

[@lifewithopc]

I'm actually making a retainer ending at the 6. Thanks for this video!

[@lifewithopc]

Any tips when it ends at the 6s?? For the distal side of the Adams ?

[@RetainerDesigner]

We trim the acrylic to the middle of the 7's to allow room for the Adams clasps. If there are not 7's we just allow 2-3 mm of acrylic distal the the adams

[@ivanlogin8607]

Thanks for the video. Tell me where I can buy it???? Modelltisch Zahntechnik Dental Labor,exactly like yours?

[@tatiliekumagai]

Great video. That's exactly I've learned in university. Apart from the loop signature at the end: that demands extra skill and patience. PS: Love the pen holder.

[@khirabdhitanaya5945]

thank u so much... my very first clasp turned out amzing

[@RetainerDesigner]

Yeah! Good Job!

[@CRUELTREE]

Thank you ! Helping me get to the submission date !

[@pedroneves4400]

[@avantikapd7795]

please do upload a vedio for palatal canine retractor... ur method of making the appliance is really neat...

[@RetainerDesigner]

When one of those come across my bench, I will shoot a video. :)

[@keolac8x]

thanks you very much!

[@glumpfi]

Who decides how much of the palate is covered with acrylic? Is it the technician or is there an order from the orthodontist? I'm asking because i made the experience that it is even more comfortable when the entire palate is covered. If the back part is free, I always felt the edges and didn't get used to it so well. Maybe you can tell me more about it :)

[@SzaraDentalLab]

really nice video lesson

[@fionat6751]

what strength/thickness and type of wire are you using here?

[@nawzadismaiil8124]

Thank you for the tutorial, but I have a question. is it possible to construct an orthodontic appliance on a prior used cast? my patient lost her appliance, and I was wondering if i could fabricate the second appliance on her old cast?? please help.. im a dentistry student..

[@CadeTippett]

Yes. That shouldn't be a problem. As long as the teeth are intact on the old model. If they are broken off you may need to wax new ones. If it has been awhile since the patient wore thier retainer. It might be tight for awhile but the good news is the original model was the original position of thier teeth so the new retainer should move them back.

[@nawzadismaiil8124]

Cade Tippett thank you so much.. you were very helpful :)

[@ronydsa3523]

[@craigthornberry6404]

What pen do you use? Does it come off on your fingers

[@RetainerDesigner]

It is a paper mate Flair M Felt Tip Pen, Yes it comes off on my fingers while i bend. I rather it do that than stay stuck on the wire. I will put a link to my Amazon Page in the Description and you can order it off of Amazon if you want.

[@deeptipai2919]

yes

[@ilverito]

that base metal is used to hold the model?

[@lifewithAysha]

Thanks

[@gonzalopedraza9003]

Muy buena adaptación.

[@ильнургиззатулин]

Добрый день! можно пройти у Вас обучение? Хочу тоже делать такие!!! Good day! can I get your training? Want, too, to do such!!!

[@ToothTalksHub]

Is the Adams claps really passive?

[@RetainerDesigner]

It should not be, it should contact the tooth measial and buccal, it will be activated by the doctor more when they deliver.

[@dwdidit3664]

Pedicures are for the feet. Wouldn't help your dirty fingernails, which I hadn't noticed until you mentioned them.

[@anjalikatake502]

Which pliers u use

[@travis5125]

What gauge wire is that?

[@anusree8920]

Where shall l get such type of player with grooves?

[@RetainerDesigner]

[@vickypradana8320]

What size wire you use?

[@CadeTippett]

I use .028" wire size for making adams clasps

[@syla1303]

Thank you . It Isn't difficult, when you showed how to do adams clasp ;)

[@lifewithAysha]

I love orthodontics

[@poopshooterxl]

I guess I need to start doing videos

[@uniqueash10]

Thank you! :-)

[@TheCold1991]

U saved me

[@flowrepins6663]

is it hard to do it?

[@RetainerDesigner]

It takes some practice!

[@johnbrooks471]

To anyone using braces right now, I do not recommend this retainer type. Plastic ones are much better why?? Hawley retainers are wire they kind of damage my gums besides they become loose and you have to go to your orthodontist. I feel plastic are much better they don't need adjustment. TAKE MY ADVICE I GUARANTEE YOU WONT REGRET

[@bharatdentalcare6859]

☺️

[@VOIDEARTH_Official]

awesome:)))

[@deeptipai2919]

umm cud u plz do eyelet clasp too...

[@aaronjamesfuentes2701]

Can you make me a retainer

[@iqravohra9572]

Very helpful! Thanks .........plz plz I need a tutorial for labial arch!!!

[@RetainerDesigner]

Try my video kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqDXcmaLrr9kbdU see if that helps.

[@shainagoyal8930]

Try to place camera properly

[@RetainerDesigner]

Check out some of my newer videos, I now have a multi-camera set up to try and capture as many angles as possible

[@ciaramcwilliams5291]

I did like this video until you started to take the wire bending out of the shot grrrr!!!

[@TheTranquilEye]

I've been an orthodontic technician for 40 years and I'm afraid this video is cringe worthy. Like watching Beyonce when you're a Floyd fan.

[@drvinayk778]

Don't give demo in incorrect methods, using the wrong pliers, foolish to follow your technique

[@RetainerDesigner]

Vinay K I am more than willing to learn a new technique! Point me in the right direction to a video or something that shows the correct techniques with correct piers, I will learn it an post a video on it on my channel.
