How Much Does it Cost to Replace an Aligner?

July 22nd, 2014

Hello Dr Patel. Invisalign braces seem like the ideal option for me because they’re removable and discreet, but I am really clumsy and manage to lose everything so I’m worried I’d lose my aligner! How much would I have to pay if that happened? I also wanted to ask if there’s a cooling off period in case the aligners don’t agree with my for whatever reason? Another worry I’ve got is that I’ll find them painful and just want to take them out all the time. Thank you!

I have lost my first Invisalign tray. What would you advise I do?

May 23rd, 2011

Hi,
I am on my first invisalign trays, i have been wearing them for 2 weeks and 5 days – at which point I lost them. I was told when I had them fitted to go back in 2 weeks, but was only able to get appointment for 4 weeks after my original fitting.
I am going to reing them tomorrow to see f there if any chance I can get seen earlier.
As i have already worn them for over the two weeks, would it be OK to wait for another week and two days before going back for my next tray? Or will my teeth move too much in this time. I know I could pay for replacement aligners, but as I have actually worn them for enough time already, I feel like I would only be paying because I cannot get an earlier appointment! I hope this makes sense, what would you advise?

Many thanks.
