Yesterday I gotten my braces tightened. This is a process in which the rubber bands are replaced with new bands in order for teeth to be more quickly straightened over a period of a month. The rubber band color can be changed to any color you ask for. In my case, I had my bands changed from black and gold to neon orange. After my braces are tightened and the bands are changed, my teeth are expected to be sore for about two days. This is mainly because the teeth are adjusting to a new position in my mouth. After about fifteen months, my braces will be taken off and my teeth will finally be straight.
