your orthodontist should have told you before you left. they go on the teeth that have little metal things coming out of them

Yes, they do work. And they are worth what you pay for. Just dont use regular rubber bands, they are not made to straighten your teeth. Your teeth can get pulled too quickly and it could cause them to fall out.
usually the rubber bands are to correct overbites and therefore if the intensity of the bite is medium, it is kept in for just six to twelve months. Also if you wear two on each hook, it speeds up the pace I've been wearing my rubber bands for a month now...and they dont bother me that much. You'll probably have 2 wear them 1, 2, or 3 months....depends on your situation
they push your teeth apart in the back of your mouth before you get braces on. when you get braces put on, a metal circle thing(i cant think of what its called) wraps around your back teeth, it acts like an anchor. spacers help make room for that. hope this helps The metal thing that goes around your back teeth is called a band
people who dont need braces or any other things to straighten their teeth
no i dont think she has ever have braces. But her teeth are nice :P
braces dont hurt when you first get them on, they start hurting when your trying to sleep & the day after, & spacers hurt they are way more painful then braces it feels like a piece of meats stuck on your teeth when you have spacers braces, bother you & feel uncomfortable for the first few days, dont eat anythang hard crunchy, eat oatmeal mashpatatoes, & noodles & stuff ice cream, & dont chew ice your teeth will be verry tense (sore),
if your baby teeth falls out, it doesn't matter because it was going to fall out anyway. the whole point of braces are to make your teeth tighten and get them straight so when it was tightening your teeth, i think it caused your baby teeth to wobble and fall. but its ok because at least its not your adult teeth so dont worry! :)
Usually your Orthadonist will ask you what TWO colors would you like yoour rubber brands on your braces to be but no, you dont HAVE to ask them what colors but you may ask if you wanted to though.
you want a soft rubber band ball with strechy rubber bands,but you also want to be carefull that you dont make it to big and to small
Yes or else the ones that are not fully grown yet will be cricket. and you dont want that
you dont get your braces the first time you go. the first time they just ask you questions and see whats wrong with you teeth and stuff. the second time you go they willl probaly get a mold of your teeth and show you what they are going to do. the third or fourth time you go is when you get the braces glued onto your teeth but you dont get the wire that straightens your teeth yet. then the next time you go you get the wire.
