Answer:
Heya, I'm no orthodontist but I wore bands for 2-3 years so I'm here to help ya!
Explanation:
First off, you shouldn't be wearing your bands if you are eating take them out to brush your teeth, play the flute, eat, or discard them to get a new pair. Second, wear them when your orthodontist tells you too, if they tell you to wear them in the day then only wear it in the day and so on and so forth- you should be okay, braces take time, heck I had them on for almost three years.
