JMU Orthodontic Elastics 3/16 Inch Medium 500 pack Intraoral Elastic Bands Latex Free Dental Rubber Bands Made in USA

My14-year-old twins have Invisalign aligners and use elastics with them. We received a limited supply of elastics from the orthodontist however, my kids seem to lose theirs frequently, so we needed to buy a new supply. I checked the size on the bag that we were given from the orthodontist and these matched, though they are a different brand. These elastics worked just as well as the ones from the orthodontist and my kids didn’t really notice a difference between the two. They seem like a good value for the money we spent because the quality and size were comparable. If we need to buy more elastics, we will definitely buy these ones so I recommend these.

Was exactly as advertised. Bands don’t break and they came with free tools inside to put on and off your bands. We needed these in a pinch since we couldn’t go to dentist right away.

Break easy (which is painful) and slip off easily too. Some come melted together.

I needed silicone because I'm allergic to latex, this was a good amount for the price. They're a little thin but they work. Once in a great while I would come across one that was Not usable because it didn't come out of the form right or whatever. It would snap. My husband complained that they snapped on him all the time but that was not the case with me at all, he tends to try to stretch his mouth open with his dental device in and so naturally a tiny little rubber band is going to snap. Overall out of a thousand of these only a handful broke. And the price was good. I would buy them again and I'm going to.

We got these based on the measurements of the bands the ortho gave us and these are a lot thicker which keeps them from busting, which is why we tried new bands. Took some getting used to but if you stretch them out before putting them on, that helps a lot! I used to wake up with the ones from ortho busted on my pillow or they'd bust while at school - hasn't happened with these thicker ones.
