Broke my retainer.

matthew1998 · 2016-04-29 15:28:51

Got my braces under the HSE and was discharged 2 years ago. Can I phone up the HSE and get a new one (for a fixed fee)?. Does anyone know how much a HSE Replacement costs for a top retainer? I'm just wondering will they still have my records. If not i'll have to have one remade in a private orthodontist... god only knows…
