Well when I have my mouth closed (and most other people) I don't have my jaw closed so my teeth aren't touching anyway. When you have the elastics in they pull your teeth and jaw together so that's why you teeth touch. The elastics are so your teeth will realign.



Normal people only open their mouth to
1-breathe
2-talk/sing/yell/cry
and 3-eat (:
So...
When you have the elastics, the point is to pull your teeth and jaw together.
Your teeth are supposed to touch.
That's why they do :P
The elastics will make your teeth realign.
