I Broke My Invisalign Retainer. Will My Teeth Be Fine Without It?

May 7th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Raha. Is there any chance you could help me? I broke my Invisalign retainer recently and I’m afraid to tell my orthodontist. He’s quite scary. Will my teeth be okay if I just leave it? I know your supposed to see the treatment through to the end but my teeth are fine and straight enough now. What should I do? I don’t want to go back!

I Need Your Advice As I Have Lost My Retainer, What Can I Do?

November 25th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Thorne, I really need your help and advice. I have lost my final Invisalign retainer, what can I do? I’m worried about what my orthodontist will think and say. Will I have to pay extra for spares? What happens If I leave it, will my teeth start to go back to their old position? Thank you, I really hope you can offer some advice and help me with this!

Can I get a replacement for my broken retainer?

December 7th, 2012
Q.

Hello Adam. My upper retainer has broken. I notice it has a
number on it. Is it possible to get a replacement made of the same material?
The dentist’s where I had the Invisalign course has now closed down. They made
me a replacement once for a previous broken upper, but the material quality was
terrible, more like rubber. I was hoping you could point me in the right
direction to obtaining a correct replacement. Many thanks.
