How do I use the bands for my braces?

I have to wear rubber band for my braces also, but they aren't squar shaped just circles. Your docter is probably trying to fix your bite, you may either have an over bite or under bite. I would give them a call and ask them exactly which teeth the rubber bands should be hooked on, (you should have little pointy things sticking out of some of your brackets. These are where you place one end of a rubber band.) because if you dont place the bands on the right teeth you could really mess up your bite and have to wear the bands even longer because you have to reverese your mistake. Just give them a call, it is better than having to wear them longer because you didnt ask. Good luck and take a lot of pain medication lol
