What are bands?
Question:
Answers:
The bands they are talking about are the metal stuff they cement to your molars as sort of a "foundation" for your braces.
Rubber bands are sometimes needed with braces to move the teeth in a different direction than the braces can move them on their own. If your orthodontist recommends rubber bands, it's important to be sure that your child uses them consistently and changes them daily. When used appropriately, rubber bands can play a big part in straightening teeth.
the bands they are referring to are the molar bands they will cement to your back molars on the top and bottom. These are used to hold the ends of the archwire for your braces, they usually also have slots for headgear wires and/or other appliances. They are basically just metal bands that go around your molars. there is a picture on the link. Good luck!
P.s. they do not mean rubber bands b/c those are only used after the braces have been placed, which seeing as you still have spacers in I am assuming you don't have them on yet.

Bands are the one that put on the braces. its basically like elastic, that means they are going to put braces on with the bands on.
