Does it cost extra to add colors/bands to my braces?

Question

I just have plain silver braces & was wondering if it would be extra to add colors.

Answer 1

Nope. With the modern braces, they glue the bracket to your tooth and attach the wire to them, and the colored band is what holds the wire to the bracket, making your teeth move. So you have to choose a color, unless of course you get the ceramic braces which are clear brackets and a clear band, or you choose silver bands :)

Answer 2

Wellll. my friend has american braces and is not allowed colours, but i have british ones, and im allowed colours for free :D

Answer 3

Answer 4

No. It doesn't cost extra, but you might have the kind of braces that don't have colors on them. Just ask your ortho.  

Answer 5

No you get to change you brace color every month if you want to that's what my dentist said. no extra money!

Answer 6

Nope, but it might be extra for all different colors like rainbow. Otherwise, no.

Answer 7

Not with my orthodontist. He lets us choose the color we want.

Answer 8

Don't know. But i wouldn't. I had the colored ones, but It's only been a few months and there is no color anymore. : (
