Retainer stopping bone growth

[durpy]

I have had a retainer in for 2 years now after I finished Invisalign, and I cannot figure out if the Invisalign retainer holding the teeth back stops mid face growth in the maxilla. I cannot decide if I should stop wearing retainer or if I should continue

I can't imagine so.

your maxilla is mostly developed likely i would assume your age is 17 or so but your it may hold jaw from developing a little bit, probably better just wear the retainer

I have a good defined and long jaw, but my maxilla is decently recessed, so I am not sure if this would help it. Obviously I would be hard mewing 24/7 without wearing Invisalign which I feel would revert progress and loosen teeth
