That happened to me once.

I tried to put it back on, but it took too much effort and I'm impatient, lol.

It's no big deal, the colored bands are really only there so we feel we have some sort of decoration and like they aren't too bad to deal with, lol.

The ortho didn't say a thing about it when I went back after I lost the band, so I would assume it doesn't matter...so no worries =]

i'd say, if its towards the back and kinda hard to see..then just wait till the your next app. if its obvious then try and put it back on with tweesers.it worked for me(might take awhile though) good luck!

Well i think you should just
wait until your next appointment,
its not a big deal unless its bothering
you or its really visible .

So in that case,
if its very visible...
you should try to get
tweezers and put it back on.
or if you can't, make an appointment
to get it fixed .

hey thats been happening to me forever! its always the same tooth that the rubber band comes off. its not like you have to rush into the ortho office because its an emergency. its really not. i asked my orthodontist and she said it doesnt really matter. so just come back at your normal appointment and when they change your colors they will put one back on it.

its not a big deal.

it happens to me EVERY SINGLE time i go get my colors changed. its ok



ps i get my braces off in 15 days im exciteddd! yayyy


well good luck and hope i helped.


ps i am missing one now! you know how you have 4 main teeth in the top front, well its on the very left. it always happens so dont worry about it.
