Which rubber color?
Hello, I recently got braces and I chose silver for the rubber bands. I can get new ones soon and I wanted to ask which color I should choose. (I have blue eyes, brown hair, am slightly tanned and my teeth are a bit yellow, not yellow but not bright white either) if that could help. Maybe one color for both of my teeth would make them look a bit brighter and match my eyes if possible.
Hello, hello,
with black or dark blue alastics you increase the contrast to the teeth and they appear brighter.
White or transparent alastics discolor very quickly and this looks untreated.
In summer, turquoise or pink (at girls) is also popular.
Good luck!

As you describe it, you have a normal color of your teeth. If you were to take white rubbers now, your teeth would probably look more yellow compared, which leads to false impressions. In addition, white rubbers quickly discolor, especially when you drink tea or coffee. For this reason, I would not take yellow rubbers straight, although yellow is actually my favorite color.
Otherwise, let your imagination run free. Choose your favorite color. Just think: if you’re standing in front of the mirror and smiles, what color do you want to see at the brackets of your braces? If you have blue eyes, just choose blue. You can also choose two different colors and make them alternately attached to the brackets, e.g. blue/violet.
In the past, the chip has been tried to hide discreetly with transparent rubbers, nowadays everyone knows what to wear a brace, then you can see it. It is important that the colors you like, because it is your brace and your individual smile.
Or: What colors does your favorite shirt have? Create your own style. A brace itself can not be chosen but the colors of the rubbers, then the acceptance of the chip also increases.
So much fun with the new colors…
So I always recommend strong colors – these rubbers do not discolor. If you take white or transparent, then they will turn very quickly through tea, coffee or curry.
How about dark blue, turquoise, dark green or dark red? I think that’s all right…
I don’t know what choice there is now. I would recommend you transparent as it is least noticeable. I don’t think silver fits.
I would be turquoise or black 👍
