The Available Colors of Bands on BracesĪt my dental school, we use the 3M Unitek Alastik brand of braces bands. If you’re wondering why people with braces need those colored bands in the first place, read my previous article about why you have to have rubber bands on each tooth with braces. Some people chose their favorite color or just a color to match their mood. Everybody that told me what color they wanted felt like they had to justify their color choice. It was interesting to look at the psychology behind the color choices. One dedicated high school football player wanted the colors of his school - they had lost their last game, and he was hoping that his braces would bring his team a much-wanted victory. Nowadays with modern technology there are many different types of dental treatments available, one of which is oral surgery or orthodontics.Not too long ago, I spent a week of my dental school career in the orthodontics department, helping the future orthodontists to straighten people’s teeth.Ī lot of the teenagers’ favorite part of their appointment was at the very end when they got to choose what color their braces would be for the few weeks until their next appointment. And I know how good it feels when other people compliment you on how nice your smile looks 🙂 Having pretty teeth is so important to me because it makes me feel happier and more confident in myself. I can’t wait for the day when I get my braces off!įor me, the best thing about my braces is that they make me smile more. My teeth are looking much better now that I am getting closer to the end treatment stage. I have been wearing braces for 12 months now and I have had my teeth cleaned and polished recently at my orthodontic check-up. Some people like to wear the traditional metal braces, and some prefer the ceramic braces as they are less noticeable. When it comes to choosing your braces color, you have many choices.
