Question:
My teeth are perfect and straight now after 2 years in braces, and I had a followup appointment today where my orthodontist told me that in 4 weeks when I come back we're doing impressions IF I wear my rubber bands! Yay! The only problem is, is that I still have a small gap that I want fixed in between my left canine tooth and the one behind it, will these rubber bands that I have to wear accomplish that?

In case you can't see clearly, I have two triangles to wear and one rubber band from my left canine to my left molar.
Answers:
Sounds like you are in finishing elastics. These elastics should interdigitate these teeth. Take a look at your teeth before the braces are taken off and make sure you are pleased, if not discuss this with your Orthodontist before he removes them. Do wear the rubber bands exactly like instructed failure to do this will delay your removal.
