Will I Be Charged For A Replacement Invisalign Aligner?

April 1st, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr. Qureshi, I’m wondering if you could help me. I stood on my Invisalign aligner by accident. It fell out of my mouth as I was putting it in and I just stepped on it. It’s completely snapped. I’m not keen on my dentist, I feel as though he lectures me and I don’t want to go back just for him to be angry at me and tell me I have to pay a lot of money for a new replacement. Will I be charged for the replacement of this particular set of aligners? Thanks in advance for your help!

I Think My Inman Aligner Might Be Broken And I Don’t Want Folk Out More Money. What Should I Do?

October 28th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Qureshi. I have a problem as the little coil that comes with the Inman aligner is now at a funny angle, and I think it could be broken because when I put it back in after cleaning it felt really loose, I don’t know if it’s just me thinking it though as I might be worrying too much. Should I take it to my orthodontist to check out? I really don’t want to charged a fortune if it is broken though, I’ve already had to pay a lot to have it in the first place. Thanks. I hope you can help me with this as it’s bothering me.

I stood on my aligner and cracked it. Will I need to pay for a replacement aligner? What should I do?

Q.

Hello. I’m really worried about my invisalign aligner. A piece at the back of the aligner has snapped off. It was my own stupid fault, I took the aligner off the clean my teeth and it fell on the floor then I stood on it. I don’t know what to do I’m scared that my dentist will just go off on one because he’s not the most patient of people I’ve ever met, he’s very blunt. Will I have to pay for a new aligner to be made? I was due to have my aligner changed next week anyway but obviously I’ll miss out on a weeks worth of treatment. What should I do? Thanks!
