I Just Broke my Permanent Invisalign Retainer and Now I Live in a Different State. How Do I Get a New One?

Permanent retainer broke, what should i do

If the permanent retainer is a removable one a local dentist can make you a new one by taking an impression of your mouth. If the retainer is a wire fixed to the back of your teeth then a local dentist would have to make a new one as well. Find a dentist in your new location and ask him to fix the issue.

Broke Invisalign Retainer, Living in Different State

If your retainer was the removable type, then your invisalign dentist can have another one ordered and mailed to you. He would not need to see you for another impression. If your retainer was a permanent type (bonded directly on your teeth), then a local dentist can fix it.
