Subjective evaluation of orthodontic treatment and potential side effects of bonded lingual retainers.

Unlabelled: The primary aim of this study was to evaluate our patients' experience of their treatment period with a fixed appliance and their opinions about the results five years after completion of active treatment. A second aim was to assess bonded lingual retainers and their potential side effects. A final aim was to compare the results in a postgraduate clinic (Göteborg) and a specialist clinic (Vänersborg).
