Question: Braces: Substitute for elastic bands.?

Answers:
Is there a number he can be reached at.? Maybe he can put some in the mail for you.

I think he would probably prefer than you go without than ghetto-rig something that might harm your teeth. Use up the bands you have. If you run out, don't use anything. Make sure you get extras from our ortho next time he's in town.Health Question & Answer

no they are pretty thin bands
i can think of absolutely nothing that would substitue
you are out of luck unless you know someone else that wears braces.

try a pharmacy maybe.?
you must live in the boondocks if the orthodontis "comes to town"

maybe call laura engel and ask if she has any.Health Question & Answer

Not really...what I would do is just conserve them. Don't change them after every meal, etc.Health Question & Answer
