Clear retainers or Metal retainers after getting your braces off? In your opinion?

I'm getting the clear ones after I get my braces off in like 1 month or two. Since thats the only kind of my orthodontist uses. I think those would be better, but I want to know the pros and cons and both. So whats your opinion on them?Clear retainers or Metal retainers after getting your braces off? In your opinion?

Clear! Clear! Clear! I personally think that the clear retainers look much better. You might have to wear them to school or something, so if I were you I would choose clear!!!
i hear that the clear ones are easier to wear, but they kinda make you teeth look plastic somehow. i don't really now, but thats what my friends say. im getting metal ones because i want them to look real.
I hate my clear retainer!! But I hate it because you have to wear it at night and it feels like wearing a mouth piece(like for sports) and its harder to keep my mouth closed which i have to do in order to sleep.





Clear retainer you only have to wear at night, metal 24/7


Metal is more comfy
I have the clear ones and I only have to wear them at night so thats good





Cons: You have to brush them really well, they will build up this stuff under them if you don't


They tend to make me sleep with my mouth open which gives me bad breath :P
