How long for rubberbands on braces???!


Question: I was wondering how long you usually have to wear elastics (how many months) if you have an overbite of like a half of a centimeter. I've been wearing them for about a month, how much longer would you guess? Thanks:)

i wear bands right now. i've had them on for about four months now. it should be over soon though.you usually wear elastics when it gets closer for your braces to come off. i only have a couple of months left. i had a cross bite. that's why i needed braces. the bands can be a little bit of a hassle. they snap off all the time when i yawn because i open my mouth too wide! other than that, it's not that bad!

u usually get them changed every month

I wore mine for like 3 months! It was horrible!

It can vary but probably a few months at least.
