What color rubber bands?

[adam]

When you get your rubber bands changed do you change the colors too? Do you go festive and get colors that refer to what time of the year it is? Or do you just get the same old colors every time?

For me I like to keep festive. For example during winter I got blues and greens. For spring I might get yellow or something bright and springy.

Do you have any colors that you love or hate?

I hate to get black I dunno it just does not look good in my mouth.

Yes I have mine as the florida gators colors right now. I change them with the holidays, games, etc.

I love changing the colors and not using white or general colors.

Yea I never liked white either. Gator's colors? What colors are they? Sometimes I will use different shades of the same colors.

I think half the fun of getting braces is getting to change the rubber band colors.

Has anyone ever tried the glow-in-the-dark ones? Do they really work well?

My dentist is so cool he gave me rubber bands in many colors so I'm going to wear bands, which matches with my dress. I want to make a style statement with my braces bands 8)

When I had my braces I changed the colors a lot and YES! When it came holiday time I changed them to the appropriate colors, the coolest that I ever had was Halloween, black and orange!

The colors are the big thing at my son's school right now. All of the kids get their colors according to the holidays. I have a cousin that likes pink so she gets pink, but she does the holiday colors during the holidays.

I have red, white and blue rubber bands. It makes me feel patriotic. I don’t like the black ones, they are just too depressing of a color. I had the glow in the dark ones but I didn’t like the way it looked. It made me look like a neon sign.

not sure but gators is probably orange and green???

I like to change up and mix match with whatever I am wearing too. Not too into the season thing though.

When I get my braces, I am going to get Pink and Black. If you are going to do black, do a bright color, like lime green or red or orange, so you dont look like some weird zombie guy XD

My son, who's 11 years old, just had braces put on about a month ago. We are having lots of trouble keeping the brackets on, so he's been back to the Ortho 7 times and has changed colors each time. Right now he has the Glow in the dark ones.... We think they are pretty cool! :P

Advice on the colors:
WARNING THIS MAY BURST YOUR BUBBLE:
if you get green or yellow, it looks like you have broccoli stuck in your teeth.
if you choose clear or white, your teeth will change to the color of the food that you are eating.
ex: cheetos- orange
but i choose clear every time because i felt like choosing it o no one knows if i got my braces tightened (made that choice 3 months in braces) b4 that i chose pink.
