Broke retainer

keegan.98 · 2015-04-11 00:34:38

I stood on my retainer and cracked and broke a peice from the bottom retainer. I got my braces done with the HSE when I was 13ish and have had this retainer since. Can I get it fixed or what kind of cost will there be roughly? Thanks guys

Usually they cannot be fixed as a repaired retainer is never as accurate as the original and may allow teeth movement. Go to an orthodontist or dentist and get a quote, the cost depends on the type/design of the retainer.
