Hello Reilly,
Thank you for your question! As long as your new provider is an Invisalign certified dentist, they can take impressions and get new retainers for you at any time. Depending on the equipment and materials available to them, they may be able to make the retainer in house. Be sure that you are seeing an experienced dentist that will handle the coordination of your veneers and Invisalign correctly.
