You spend months or even years completing your Invisalign aligner treatments. It was a costly expense but the results are worth it as you have a beautiful smile that boosts your confidence. Your dentist crafts you a retainer to protect your teeth from shifting but after a few months, you lose it. What to do with an Invisalign lost retainer and how to replace it? We got you covered.
Your teeth need to be protected every night by a retainer after you’ve completed braces or Invisalign. Without it, your teeth may use their “elastic memory” to shift back into their natural positions. No matter how long it’s been since your treatments, your teeth are always at risk of shifting whether it’s been three weeks or three decades. If you have an Invisalign lost retainer you will need to replace it immediately to prevent your teeth from shifting.
When you wear your retainer at night, it adds a barrier of defense against shifting. It “tricks” your teeth into thinking they are in the correct position. The more you wear your retainer the better. Life happens though, you might have an Invisalign lost retainer or your pet may chew it up. Here’s how to replace it.
SportingSmiles has been in business since 2009 crafting premium Invisalign retainer replacements. You could go to the dentist for an Invisalign lost retainer but you will have to schedule an appointment and this could take weeks or months to get one. This appointment would have to fit into your busy schedule around school, work, or personal matters. The cost of getting a replacement retainer from the dentist varies between $250 – $1,000 depending on where you live. If you live in a big city, expect to pay on the higher end.
To replace your Invisalign lost retainer with SportingSmiles all you need to do is place an order online and you’ll receive our patented impression kit. With it, you’ll take easy-at-home impressions and ship them back with free 3-way shipping. Our expert team of dental lab techs will craft you a replacement set of retainers. These are the same premium retainers you’d receive from the dentist but without the need to leave the comfort of your home and at half the cost. Retainers from SportingSmiles start at $90 and our premium No. 1 selling set is $135.
Even if you find your Invisalign lost retainer, keeping a backup set on hand is a great idea because eventually, your retainers will need to be replaced. With the daily wearing of them, they will begin to loosen, crack, or become dirty from bacteria. It’s just the nature of retainers and it happens to all of them about every one to two years. SportingSmiles can help replace your gross, lost, or broken retainers.
