If your old retainer no longer fits
A retainer that will not seat means your teeth have already moved.
A new one will not move them back, see your orthodontist first.

How much does a replacement retainer cost

Why is it so expensive to replace retainers
At an office you pay for the visit and the scan as well as the retainer. Here a home kit takes the place of the visit.
Can I order a retainer online
Yes. You take a mold at home and a licensed dentist in your state reviews your photos before the kit ships.
Can I get a new retainer years later
Yes, if your old one still seats. If it does not, your teeth have moved and you need your orthodontist first.
Can a new retainer be made from an old one
No, it is made from a new mold of your teeth as they are today.
Do orthodontists replace retainers for free
Some offer retainers for life, so ask the practice that did your braces first.
Will insurance pay for a replacement retainer
Some plans pay part for a lost or broken retainer. HSA and FSA cards usually work, the plan administrator decides.

Usually 1 to 3 years, less if you grind at night.
