>Sounds too soon to me, but then I am paranoid about my painfully and expensively straighted teeth moving back without my noticing since I didn't really notice until I saw a picture how much they had moved when they were first straightening. You can wear the retainer as much as you want, there is no such thing as wearing it too much for your health. Probably I am quite a bit older than you are, but I think I will be wearing my invisible retainers 24/7 for 3-4 months before we start to reduce the time (but I am not certain about that). I do know my ortho has check-ups for a year after the retainers are put on, so I am assuming it takes a year to get totally to night-only wear.
