Generally speaking, wearing a rubber band is used to close the gap between teeth and adjust the corrected jaw relationship. Try to wait until the strength is exhausted, basically about 20-30 days, and then take it out after it is stable. But be sure to follow the doctor's advice. After wearing the rubber band, there may be problems such as toothache, unstable occlusion and difficulty in cleaning. But in order to better correct the effect, you can eat liquid or semi-liquid food first and wait for adaptation. However, we should pay attention to the rubber band when chewing and clean our teeth after meals. If the rubber band falls off, contact the attending dentist to prevent the final correction effect from being bad and prolong the correction time.

Therefore, in this process, you should obey the doctor's arrangement to ensure good orthodontic effect. At the same time, in the process of orthodontics, we should pay attention to the cleaning and care of teeth, so that we can not only have neat teeth, but also have healthy teeth after orthodontics.
