Your Dr will be the best judge for your case. Each way has its pros and cons. Compliance is the most important thing so your Dr will value your input. Cost at this point is not the main concern 100 dollars is not smart to no do what your Dr suggested. Talk to your Dr and ask all your question and concerns. Good luck and congrats on your new smile take care of it

Congratulation on finishing up your braces, that's a huge accomplisment. In our office we include a set of Invisalign retainers with every case. We do go over the Vivera retainers program wit our patients because some like to have an extra case with them, and as you know with vivera retainers you get four sets shipped to your home for a year. Most of our patients like to purchase the Vivera retainers at $320, they get more than a year of usage because they are stronger. But , as long as you are committed to wear your retainers every night, any retainer will work fine.

I do not think it matters which retainer you wear as long as you are committed to wearing them..  If you do not wear them you may relapse.  In my office we make 4 sets of retainers for the patient or they can upgrade to the vivera program.
