My kids asked the ortho how long they had to wear their retainer. He asked how long do you want your teeth to be straight. He recommended always wearing one at night, forever. It's been 10 years for them. So far they wear it at night most of the time.
I know I only wore one for about 6 months and my teeth shifted around.
