The role of orthodontic rubber band
When our maxillary or mandibular teeth can't be moved by simple brackets and archwires, we can use the opposite mandibular teeth to influence our teeth by wearing rubber bands.
After sewing with a rubber band, the teeth are basically arranged neatly, and then we remove our arch wire and put on the retainer again, and the whole orthodontic treatment is over.
However, there is no exact time frame for wearing rubber. Usually, for younger children, it may take less time to wear rubber because teeth move quickly. For elderly patients, it may take longer.
