Ortho Organizer Elastic Separators (Pack of 1000)

Orthodontic separators are elastic (usually blue or gray) separators or spacers that are placed in between the back teeth so that orthodontists can more easily place an orthodontic band (like a ring on a finger) on a tooth or teeth the following week. The separator can feel like a piece of floss or food is left in between the teeth but it’s important to let them do their thing.

• Do not pick on the separator with your fingers or floss where the separator is placed. 
• Do not eat sticky foods like gum or sticky candy. Check our list of foods to avoid for more details.
• Continue your normal diet, except for sticky foods.
• Biting on the separator is normal and can feel “bouncy.” 
• Regular brushing is recommended where the separator is placed.
