The cost of replacing a fixed (bonded) retainer after aligner treatment depends on the material used, the number of teeth involved, and the clinic. In most cities, the approximate cost ranges from ₹3,000–₹8,000 per arch.
Since your existing retainer appears to have broken, I recommend visiting an orthodontist as soon as possible. Delaying replacement may allow the teeth to shift. The dentist will assess whether the retainer can be repaired or needs complete replacement and will also check if any tooth movement has already occurred.
If you notice any changes in your bite or alignment, do not postpone the appointment.
