L Brooks Company, Tallahassee, Fla, now offers the Ortho Recovery Service™ for patient retainers. The free lifetime service provides 24/7 recovery service for lost retainers as well as a reward to the finder.

Each retainer covered by the service has a label with an identification number specific to that retainer embedded when it is manufactured. According to the company, if a retainer is lost and found, the service confidentially arranges a reward for the finder and delivery to the patient anywhere in the world. The Ortho Recovery Service never reveals the identity of the patient.

The cost is $5.00 per retainer. Additional adhesive ID service labels are also available for retainer cases.
