Should I rip the spacers between my teeth?!


Question: I just got spacers today, the circular rubber bands you put between your molars to make space for the braces I am getting n thursday. Are they supposed to be this annoying? I think I will go insane if I don't take them out! Can I take them out because seriously wow... they are so freaking annoying. They feel like chunks of meat got stuck between my teeth...

i know how you feel 'cause i have them too. just try not to think about them. and don't take them out-it will just make the process of getting your braces take much longer.

:]

I felt the same way, but I left mine alone. Although one kept popping out on its own, no matter what so my ortho gave up.

Best to just leave them alone. If you take them out now, the ortho might end up having to replace them.

do NOT rip them out.
they are there for a reason.
you will get used to them.

I wouldn't take them out if I were you. They'd only be put back in when you go back. Just have peace of mind that they're only in for a week.

Whats weird is that I just got braces today, but I'm supposed to get spacers on the 14th. And, according to my knowledge, you get them before braces. I'm so confused! Oh well. xD
