Elastics

Now that you are wearing elastics, you are actually straightening your own teeth!

The elastics do this by putting pressure on your teeth in various directions. They must be worn as instructed, or your result will come up short!

1. Wear the elastics all the time, day and night, unless we instruct otherwise!

2. Remove them only to eat — a fresh set should go in after you have eaten and brushed your teeth.

3. Carry your elastics with you all the time. If one breaks, replace it right away.

4. If you run out, please call us and tell us what size you need. We'll get a new supply to you.

Teeth always move when elastics are worn consistently!

Work hard at this because you'll see the results sooner!
