Yes in fact you can ! Rubber is waterproof so its absolutely okay ! You should only take your elastics off while eating, brushing, and changing your elastic ! Always keep it on or the journey of removing your braces will be longer and SLOWER !

No, not the ones that hold your wire to the bracket. Bu the rubber bands that you put on the hooks, yes you do remove them to make it easier to clean your teeth.

No. Bands can only be removed by your ortho. You can buy a special brush if u have difficulty using a regular. Ask your ortho for a sample.

What will happen if you sallow the rubber bands for braces?

Usually you take the rubber bands out before eating so they don't snap on your mouth, but it really just depends on what your orthodontist tells you to do. If you are instructed to take the bands out while eating, you can eating almost anything (except gum, popcorn, etc-stuff you can't eat with braces period) Hope this helps you!

How do you put rubber bands on braces?

Well, Rubber bands are given to you by your orthodontist. If they showed you how to do it, and you can't remember, or they didn't take the time to show you, here is how to attach them. First of all, you need the small rubber bands from your orthodontist. Now you hook it on one of the hooks, and stretch it gently to the next hook. If you can't do it with your fingers, try using tweezers, because it can reach in small areas. Make sure you wash your hands first, and take them out before eating! Good Luck!


How does Netgear work?

neck gear, bands (rubber bands), headgear and bigger braces all do the same thing. If you have an overbite or under bite then they make them more strait and if you have a under bite or overbite then your upper or lower teeth more develop. The only thing that is different about them is that some take long to strait your teeth and some take longer. (The head/neck gear and bigger braces take a shorter amount of time to strait your teeth and the first few day they will hurt your gums. The bands take longer but they do not hurt.) Hope i helped have fun getter whatever

Can your rubber band of your braces get stuck in your throat?

What is really cool about the colors on your braces is that the rubber bands do not come off of the actual braces but the ones that attach the top and bottom teeth do come off. So I would not worry because the bands do need come off so therefore you will not choke on them. Not to worry. I highly doubt that would happen because I cannot even get mine off. Also, just so you know, the dentist takes them off for you and you are supposed to be able to take them out so if you can you should call up your dentist and discuss it with him/her. I don't know if other people's can because at my dentist the bands do not come off.
