Wearing retainers is a important phase on your orthodontic treatment. Once your braces comes off your Orthodontist will give you instructions on how to wear your retainers properly. The American Association of Orthodontist and scientific Studies report and recommend to wear your retainers for life every night (8-12 hours per day) in order to maintain the position and the alignment of your teeth. If you do not wear your retainers properly it might be a chance that your teeth starts to move and shift to a improper position. But if you forget to wear your retainer for 3 days my recommendation is for you to wear the retainer for a couple of days full time (24 hours) and then go back for night times only.

Clear Braces do not turn yellow. They are fabricated and made from porcelain or ceramic materials. The O-ring or the clear elastics that goes around each bracket that attaches the wire with the brackets decays with time by eating staining food such as coffee, red wine, strawberry, curry, sodas, basically any food that stains will turn the clear elastics (O-Rings) into yellow. If you visit your Orthodontist regularly to your follow up appointments the clear elastics will always be changed and that yellow color in your braces will disappear and had that issue resolved.
