I'm being told that I will have to wear a retainer forever after my Invisalign treatment. If I'm meant to use a new one every 3 months for the rest of my life, that seems like a real racket to me. My doctor has hinted that they can really last up to 6 months, but still I'm looking at a medical cost for the rest of my life.

Answer: Invisalign's retainer program The Vivera retainer program is an Invisalign program (as opposed to something profitable for your dentist) costing around $400 per year. So...how many years are you going to live?? Jokes aside -- I, personally like the Vivera program, because every 3 months your teeth are in a new appliance that keeps them in the corrected finish position. There is a tendency for your teeth to shift a bit otherwise. Other options -- you may have traditional orthodontic retainers made. These may not keep your teeth in the exact finish position, however it would be a better option than nothing...and you buy just one set.
