The immediate provision of a new orthodontic appliance following loss or damage is a service addressing common disruptions to ongoing dental alignment maintenance. For example, should a patient’s existing device become irreparably broken during the morning, a clinic offering this service can fabricate and deliver a replacement before the end of the business day.
This expedited service minimizes the risk of teeth shifting back toward their original positions, thereby protecting the investment made in orthodontic treatment. Historically, patients facing retainer issues would experience delays due to standard laboratory processing times. The availability of rapid fabrication techniques and in-house capabilities allows for a more responsive and efficient approach to maintaining optimal dental alignment.
