    Almost 2 years since wore invisalign braces.worked well. I still wear the plastic retainers most nights for about 8 hours,was told that only needed to wear one night a week to maintain longterm but I feel I need to wear more. I've noticed that there is permanently a small gap in 2 lower teeth,even first thing after removing retainers and it widens even more by night time. Is it possible the retainers have stretched and are no longer doing their job? Do I need replacements? Had bad experience with clinic I attended so don't want to go back to them

    Hi

    you may need new retainers if they are 2 years old. They can wear or break over time

    Best to go back to original ortho, if this isn not possible they cost about €100-150 each. Any dentist or ortho should be able to oblige

    Is retainer adjustment & aftercare not included in Invisalign treatments?

    If they are included, how long is "warranty" ?
