Braces rubber bands, is this normal?!


Question: Braces rubber bands, is this normal?
I've had braces for about 2 years now and I've had rubber bands for 1 year.

I currently have a rubber band in a triangle in both the left and right back of my teeth. I have to wear a rectangle on the front teeth when I'm at home. It feels like my left side rubber bands are tighter is this normal? They also hurt more however on either side I'm unable to open my mouth and or speak.

i doubt its normal but im sure plenty of people have had it..everyones different.my braces are pretty normal but maybe one side of your mouth is different than the other.. so for you they had to do something different..next time you go get your colors changed ask them why you have them if you dont already know :) hope i helped

i have braces!!!



You must not want to talk too bad. I had a #7 bottom back to upper k9 and down to the bottom on each side and a #4 box on the front. After just a few days was talking ok and even chewing gum. It does get easier with time.



I hated wearing the rubberbands, they hurt like hell. & Im pretty sure its normal, that happened to me too. :/ Goodluck!



normal. I'm wearing rubber bands right now and they feel uneven but they are, dont worry
