Molar bands, also known as orthodontic bands, are rings that are fitted around your back teeth called molars when you apply braces. The orthodontic bands are generally made of metal or stainless steel, which makes them long-lasting and very convenient to fit into a tooth. Orthodontists can also combine other brace parts that are made of steel or metal with these bands for better support. Not everyone requires these bands, only some people with braces require these bands to get the perfect alignment of teeth. When there is a large gap between your teeth then your dentist recommends getting molar bands. Straightening your teeth will help you in getting the right alignment. Molar bands are also suitable for children whose teeth are not completely grown. Advisable for people who had jaw surgery.
How are these applied?
Firstly, dentists will place elastic separators or spacers between teeth that will help teeth to move apart. You must stay with these separators for a few days as it helps your teeth make space for bands. You might feel tender teeth as the separators slightly move your teeth. In the second appointment at the dentist, these separators are removed and molar bands are placed with the help of some adhesive material. Molar bands do not cause any discomfort and are not painful. Some people might get soreness but it is temporary and goes away with time. You must take care of your eating habits during this treatment. Avoid eating food items like chewing gum, toffee, chocolates. Avoid eating crunchy food items. Popcorn, hard candy, ice cream, say no to these during this period. Use a soft brush after treatment to avoid breaking of bands. You can also apply soft wax if you feel any discomfort. If you get any pain or any discomfort that is not unusual immediately consult your dentist.
There are many benefits of molar bands. Orthodontists use brackets to anchor archwires in place. Due to the design of brackets, doing brush and floss becomes easier and helps in maintaining dental hygiene. Molar bands are sturdy due to which they are not likely to lose over time. Also, a dentist can attach extra parts to molar bands for proper alignment and correction. These bands increase the risk of tooth decay as it will surround your teeth and makes it difficult to brush or floss with these bands. There are chances of the cavity if food is stuck between the tooth and the molar band. But all these drawbacks can be easily managed and you will get your desired teeth with proper alignment.
