    Question Elastics - how long did you have to wear them?

    I am using elastics to correct a slight overbite and was wondering how long those of you that needed them ended up having to wear them. I asked my ortho how long I would be using them and he couldn't give me an answer. He just said it depended on how fast my teeth moved.

    It does indeed depend how quickly your teeth respond.
    I am not a dental professional.

    As it says on the main Bracesreview.com page, always consult a qualified orthodontist, dentist, or medical professional with questions you may have.
