Do clear retainers break easily?!
Question: Do clear retainers break easily?
(Also, if you're just going to tell me I'm crazy or worrying too much, don't even bother. My parents spent a lot of money on my braces, and retainers aren't cheap either. That's why I care so much.)
Thank you. :)

I understand - for the first few weeks I treated mine like it was made of gold or something!
The good news is that they're made of tough stuff and so long as you don't expose them to a lot of heat, they change shape if you do, and clean them twice a day, you'll be fine.
Don't worry if a few holes start to appear, it's normal wear and tear, espiecially if you're a tooth grinder in your sleep, like me!
Good luck, hope you're happy with your new smile :)
no, they're not easy to brake, they are pretty tough and definitely wont break just by you trying to take them out :)
