Please follow your Dentist’s recommendations. It is very important to wear them according to your Doctor’s instructions. Braces are a great investment and retainers are the e way to ensure they stable over time.
It needs to be worn for at least several hours every day. For best results, you should also look for help from an orofacial myofunctional therapist. By improving muscle activity, you improve the pressures placed on your teeth. These improved pressures help with retention rather than against retention. For the best additional information on this subject study the book: GROWING A HEALTHY CHILD, SECRETS FROM A WISE OLD DOC. Thanks for your excellent question.
After orthodontic treatment or Invisalign, It is best to wear retainers every day so your teeth do not move! It is also great if you see your dentist to get your x-rays done, to make sure all your roots are healthy, and no root resorption is present!
