Haven't been wearing my rubber bands for my braces?!


Question: Haven't been wearing my rubber bands for my braces?
So, I've had my braces for 2 years so far. :P
I got rubberbands 2 visits ago, and the time between that visit and the second with rubberbands, I wore them every day. I've become lazy and they are really starting to hurt my jaw D:
But I go back to the ortho soon and I am supposed to get my braces off next month but that won't happen because I haven't been wearing my rubberbands D: Is there anyway I can make up the lack of wearing them in a few weeks?

Answers:

Double up on the rubberbands. Wear twice as many you would. It'll go faster an it'll hurt more, but it'll be worth it.

I used to have braces



I did the same thing. Wear them from after lunch til you eat dinner and then change for bed. Try and do this for a good two weeks straight if you can.


I am actually suprised my teeth were not all jacked because I hardly ever wore them, except when I knew I had an appointment soon



No way. And they will definitely be able to tell that you haven't been wearing them. You will probably have to have them on at least another month.



Hah sux for you!
Well i sometimes dont wear mine but im not supposed to get mine until a couple of months so i would say just wear them as much as possible and never be lazy or forget them again!

Braces :(
