Rubber bands...Did you ever wonder if you will get to wear rubber bands with your braces? Rubber bands can be worn several different ways and they come in different sizes, so don't copy or wear your friend's rubber bands.

The main purpose of them is to make sure your upper teeth and lower teeth fit together correctly. That is why when you do get rubberbands it is very important to wear them as instructed. Braces alone cannot fix your bite. Rubber bands may be started or stopped by Dr. Vinson at any time during treatment. Good cooperation with this ensures the best possible result when your braces come off!
