The adult patients requiring orthodontic treatment usually need adjunctive dental care for complete rehabilitation. There are so many appliances that used as retainer after comprehensive to retain the tooth movement achieved. purpose of this clinical pearl is showcase a modified acrylic prevent supra-eruption terminal molar whose antagonist was be replaced using implant completion treatment.
