My ortho gave me rubberbands about a month ago. I have overbite, and my rubber bands go back to front, to fix the overbite. If you have underbite, it will do the same thing also.

it corrects an underbite/overbite and basically moves the jaw into a normal position, even if it's only just a little bit off. rubber bands really suck, i had to have them. but if you wear them for as long as you need to, then you'll get braces off sooner.

It just helps move your teeth into the correct position. Trust your orthodonist unless you want to be in braces for an extra two years (LOL). Good luck with that.

Simple. I got a couple of reasons. The first 1 is to charge you more. Dentists enjoy doing that. Second, They suppossedly keep you from opening your mouth wide or anything else that could damage the braces. Third, if someone pisses you off you always have something 2 hurt them with.
