We use orthodontic elastics or rubber bands with full braces or Invisalign® to detail the bite placement. Dr. Bieszki deals with many patients who regularly wear elastics to settle the final positioning of their teeth. Dr. Bieszki uses different patterns of elastics for different bite correction goals.
Asymmetric Elastics
It is very important to follow your orthodontist’s guidelines while wearing and removing elastics. We provide you with an instruction manual to guide you on the right way of attaching your elastics. The wrong way of wearing elastics can increase the time of your treatment or affect the final results of your full-bite correction.
Please see details of different elastics patterns below and how they work for various bite issues.
