Ortho wants me to switch Invisalign trays every 7 days?

My ortho wants me to switch my aligner trays every 7 days. I've read that most people recommend 2 weeks and that going faster can cause loose tooth roots. I don't want that! At my original appointment, he said I would change them out every 2 weeks for 14 months. Today, when I showed up to get them he changed it to 32 weeks and every 7 days. Should I trust my orthodontist's recommendation? I've been thinking about just leaving them in for 10... I figure that won't hurt anything. I'm in no rush.
