Emergency Information

Invisalign®

Because Invisalign® is made of plastic, there are very few situations which will require any kind of emergency service. The situations which you may experience during your Invisalign treatment include:

Lost or Broken Aligner

If you lose or break your retainers, please let us know as soon as possible, drop off the models used to make the retainers and we can replace them for you.

Broken Attachment

A broken attachment is not an emergency. Let us know of any broken attachments at your next visit and we will replace them as needed.

Rough Edge on Your Aligner

You can use a fingernail file to smooth any places that are causing irritation. If this doesn’t fix the problem, call our office and we will make adjustments to your aligner.

Retainers

There are only a few problems that you may experience with your retainer. If the tips recommended for dealing your retainer issues do not work, please call our office and make an appointment with our orthodontist.

Broken or Lost Retainers

If you lose or break your retainers, please let us know as soon as possible, drop off the models used to make the retainers and we can replace them for you.

Tightly Fitting Retainers

Call our office so we can determine if you simply need to wear the retainer full time for a while or if you need a new retainer.
