Has to be either totally clear or the translucent pink gum colour for me. Although I also appreciate large bulky appliances in a more obvious solid colour like blue or orange.

I like clear acrylic or gum colours as I think they make 'self prescribed' (i.e fake) devices look more authentic.

I never had a choice. Both previous times they were vermillion opaque from 2 different orthodontists. I’m not sure what I would prefer, discretion with a lisp or flamboyance with a lisp.

At the moment, the colors pink-transparent, blue, clear and turquoise are clearly used in everyday practice.
Clear retainers must be very well cared for, otherwise they will turn yellow.
