Is it depend on ppl tooth condition to determine the time length to wear the retainer?
What i heard from my sis experience, if hv traditional metal braces, doc will advise retainer for abt half yr.  While ppl who had damon braces, need wear retainer for whole life.. is it truth or myth? or diff ppl diff view ?correct me if I'm wrong..

Frm wut I know, retainer is to wear for whole life one wor.. no matter traditional or damon..

hi all!
it's been a while since my last post. i took off my braces about 4 months ago and yes, im satisfied with the result. the only thing that is bugging me now is just the transparent retainer. i've been using it since i took the braces off and looks like i need to wear it forever. well i only use it at night and everytime i plug the retainer in, the light pain is there (the teeth are adjusting to fit the retainer).

in short, the teeth move whenever i don't wear the retainer.

ya mine too... sometimes i lazy din wear it every nite and when i put on, i feel slightly pain and tight but after few minutes will be ok already..
I guess it is normal??

And another problem after I took off braces, my teeth seems rather yellowish.. Wanted to do whitening before but very expensive and heard ppl say the teeth wil bcome sensitive and hard to maintain it..
