Rubber bands how to keep fresh?

If you are talking about ones to fix your bite on your braces, change them 4 times a day; after breakfast, after lunch, after dinner, and before you go to bed. Take them off when you are eating meals or brushing your teeth. You can keep them on if you are drinking something or if you are snacking on something small.
