The interproximal wear should not be greater than 0.5mm and is done with the objective of having small spaces to align the teeth. This procedure does not have negative consequences on the teeth, as long as it is performed by a trained professional.


Overdoing this procedure can cause tooth sensitivity. We share an interesting video from the Braces Explained channel.

During orthodontic treatment, a series of materials are used that fulfill specific functions and the objective is to successfully complete the treatment. Orthodontic rubber bands are usually made of latex, but they also come in latex-free varieties for those with sensitivities.

Orthodontic rubber bands, also known as elastics, are small elastic bands that hook onto your braces from the top teeth down to the bottom teeth.



These rubber bands lose elasticity so it is necessary to replace them, and for that the patient must have knowledge of how to put them on. The use of these bands is necessary to close spaces created during the treatment.
