Guys for dark hair colors I think royal blue is a perfect match! Don’t get light colors they will stain easily. Colors to not get are white,yellow,light pink,light blue,green,brown Colors to get are:royal blue,hot pink,black,silver those all make your teeth stand out
Me and my dad moved out of our home in March and literally everywhere in the house that had carpet I was finding the clear rubber bands, I had gotten colorful rubber bands before I got my braces off so I didn’t find any of those around the house😭
Same! But I remember they increased the thickness of my bands and the next time I went it, they had to undo some of the band’s effectiveness by putting them the opposite way, which was even harder to put in 😅
I wore my rubber bands all the time. I was supposed to have braces for 20 months. I got them off after 13 months. My orthodontist said it’s because I was so good abt wearing my rubber bands!
Yea same! Ive had them for 1.5 years and i had to get them of in August this year but I was busy and couldn't go to my appointments :( Update: 1 month ago (October) i got em off yipee
@@get2billonviewsonboywithlu800 it was very painful because I have sensitive teeth. My orthodontist said for people with less sensitive teeth it will be less painful
I got my braces on June 7th and I haven’t felt pain at all idkw but Ik in time I’ll feel pain just enjoying the no pain era😭😭 can’t wait to get rubber bands tho
Mine were really bad and I still have nightmares about these rubber bands and braces, you’ll be all good tho!!! Keep it up and you’ll have them out faster 🥲 sucks ass but ey, at least ur teeth are gonna be awesome
@@therealDawnBarton they fix your jaw problems so I don’t think they help in straightening teeth i could be wrong though. So if you have like an overbite then you would get rubber bands to fix that
I'm one of those "didn't wear my rubber bands" girlies. Why? Because I was unknowingly anaphylactic to rubber. My dentist put them in and I asked if it was normal to feel like my throat was closing, and as I was struggling to breath he was like "not really. But, you'll get used to it. Wear them everyday and I'll see you next month". Literally rushed to hospital on the drive home. Thanks bro.
I always put my rubber bands in and when someone sees them they always ask “How can you put them in without a mirror?” And I say “It’s a ✨Gift✨” when reality I just remember because I do it all the time 😂
Hi i am really struggling with brushing my teeth with rubber band when I have braces and they are in a triangle prism so it’s hard for me to brush my teeth on both sides from left to right, And I have no other choices instead of talking them off any it’s or u suggest anything I love your videos there always helpful
@@SponggybobbieLOL dw bro, I didn’t know I had to wear my retainers every night coz my doctors didn’t stress it enough until an appointment years later 😅😅
As an experienced braces holder, who had to wear these bands for a year, I can recommend using a small knitting hook, it's not easy at first, but it's really useful when you get used to it😌
My dentist said it was good that I’ve been wearing them so much but I haven’t wore them for 3 months and Im not planning on going back to bands anytime soon😒😒😒😒
@@chickkennuggettttttno. if u wear rubber bands it corrects ur bite. if u don’t wear rubber bands, your bite won’t fix and you’ll have to wear braces for a much longer time period.
I have serious beef with my orthodontists. They told me I'd have my braces on for a year- it's been three years now and I'm not supposed to get them off for months. I did everything right- wore my bands, didn't eat anything I wasn't supposed to, and I only broke one bracket (they didn't replace it bc they didn't think it was necessary to). It wasn't until last month that I gave up on wearing my bands because I'd had them for ten months and they didn't seem to be doing anything. Luckily at my visit last week they told me I could stop wearing the bands for good and that I'm supposed to get them off in December, but considering that they've pushed back the date four times I'm not very hopeful. Crossing my fingers that I actually get them off now 🤞🤞
Oh I feel you 😭 mine were supposed to take two - it’s been five. You’re much more responsible than me though, I definitely didn’t help the situation and just about never wore my rubber bands… but hey, I should be getting them off in the next couple of months or so 🤷🏻♀️ (if it’s not pushed back again for the thousandth time lol)
I love pressure on my teeth so I wore my rubber bands constantly to the point I had to have braces longer because I used the clear ones 10x more since the colored ones were thinner 😭✋
I use to have braces and rubber bands are literally the pain of my teeth. I only wear rubber bands when I'm about to take a nap or sleep or just relax and after hours of wearing it I feel like my jaw is clamp shut. But wear the rubber bands because it's actually helpful
I wore mine so frequently (like I’m supposed to) that it caused me to develop a severe underbite. I had sea lion rubber bands from the top canines to the bottom back molars. Now I wear bald eagle bands in the shape of a triangle from top molars, bottom canine, and then to upper canine. It’s a piece of cake getting them in! I’ve wore them so well that I get my braces off early in the winter!
tbh i never understood why people wouldn't wear them. it's painful at first yeah but the more consistent you are the sooner you can stop, plus you take them out to eat anyways
i had bands i few weeks ago, they aren’t that bad. i was soo relieved when i didn’t have to wear them for a while. the only things i hate abt it is that the food gets stuck in your mouth, it breaks and slingshots sometimes (happened to me in public a few times very embarrassing tbh), and sometimes i forget to wear them. but other than that most of the time i wear them and it gets easier when u put it on. so if u r planning to get braces or your getting bands, they aren’t bad, it’s just the bands can be annoying at times for me.
i know this is 8 months ago bahahahah but i was wondering if they get easier to wear when you wear them more…. cuz i just got them and they hurt my teeth sooooo bad
@@urgirliesophhi ! the first days of wearing them do hurt, but i guarantee that they get a lot better after a couple of days and they barely even hurt anymore, you’ll definitely get used to it ! also, you’ll get used to putting on your bands with or without a mirror ! hope this helps :)
@@LaylaMaira Yea it did actually. At least for me anyways. I had my braces on I think maybe 2 years. And I was supposed to have them on longer but I got them off way sooner then I was supposed to.
You get used to it over time. Just make it a game, when youre putting them on at school just idk buy urself a chips or what makes you happy but not good for braces
Only ever wore my bands maybe a few times and always got compliments of “Oh wow, someone’s been wearing their bands” and then move to another wire or power chain or set of bands. And my teeth were decently jacked
I usually don't struggle to put them. It just takes a moment to put them on without looking since their positions have to change sometimes. Also, it hurts a lot when you start wearing them but you get used to it after some days. (I just went to the orthodontist yesterday to retighten my braces and it hurts like hell. I need to scratch my tongue so bad)
It can be tricky sometimes, when you wear the thick bands often. Mine were bad abt bending the little prongs that hold the bands, making them either really tricky to hook the band on or sharp and painful to the finger.
I used to be the the Never Wearer or reaaaally rarely at least for one year, but then I realized that if I don’t do that, I might never get my teeth and jaw straight, so I started to wear them the whole time, and after 4 years of having braces, I finally can enjoy my teeth without any pain
Honestly, even after always wearing my bands I’m not at a stage where I can put them in without a mirror but sometimes it works, like when it snaps out of only one hook to put it back (because it was always the lower hook and that’s easier)
One time I went a whole month putting on my rubber bands… only for my dentist to say « you’ve been putting em in the wrong place », and correcting me 😂😂😂
I barely wore my rubber bands 😳 but when my Ortho doc told me to put them in at the end, I literally used one finger and did it quickly so they didn't really question me. My sister on the other hand ... She wore them religiously, but it takes her a bit to get them in everytime, which is why they questioned her more than me 😂
I never wore mine, every time I go she says have you been wearing your bands this time and I used to make up excuses but now I just say no🤣 I get them off in a few weeks
my friend and i have had the same time on braces, yet when we both got rubber bands i was done first 🤷♀️ i always wore mine and she never wore hers. now she’s the only one with braces
I had Invisalign and was supposed to have it for 2 years, I didn’t wear them as much as ai should have and I ended up finishing them in 13 months. My orthodontist said it was cause I probably wore them really often 💀
As a midnight snacker and someone who wears lip stick combos and someone who hates rubber bands, ima go with some of the time. Actuslly scratch that- RARELY.

I didn't even get rubber bands I got full on metal bars
Same do you have an idea why is that ?
@@milky485sometimes if they know your bite cant be corrected with just rubber bands, they will just correct it with the metal appliance only!:)
I haven’t even gotten braces yet but the orthodontist says that’s what they’ll have to do to me.
After I get four teeth out 😾
I was gonna have to have it but then I didn’t

Each of these patients will find elastics all over their house for the next ten years

Is it possible to wear rubber bands with aligners to correct bite issues?@@50Steaks68
I wore mine so religiously that even my orthodontist was shocked when he looked at my teeth 😅
I was the same way as a kid, I as so good about my elastics

I actually dont have much pain and that little pain… I literally enjoy it
do you still use retainers as well?

I used those old loom band hooks to put my bands in because I struggled to put them in with my fingers
Can confirm: when I wore rubber bands I could instantly put them on because they felt wrong if you were one tooth over
Im only wearing mime bc i have to wear a front triangle and the sooner i get the teeth moving the better cause its crushing my self esteem 😭😭
i wear mine 95% of the time!
I got so good with mine, had to show my sisters the ropes
