Braces power chains are something that many people wonder about or don’t think about when they get braces because they can’t see them. So what are power chains braces and why do you have to wear them? Braces power chains are small black rubber loops that attach around your braces with the help of a tiny metal clip.
The Correct Way to Wear Your Braces Power Chains
Power chains for braces help maintain good oral health by keeping wires tight and in place, but you can’t go wrong if you follow a few basic tips. First, be sure to replace power chain every six months; use of power chain will degrade over time as it absorbs moisture and touches food. Second, try not to wrap more than one link around your wrist at once; while multiple links are safe (and comfortable!) to wear, they make it hard to discern how many links have been worn when removing them—you’ll run out faster!

Looking Sharp with Black Power Chains
While many of us love our metal and clear power chains, there’s another option that can be a little more discreet: black power chain braces. These clever accessories feature metal links in their centers surrounded by power chain rubber, making them look more like ordinary rubber bands than something found at a hardware store. They also provide added security to ensure your caps stay in place—great for anyone who is worried about snagging food on their retainers. Keep in mind that while they may help with keeping an accident from happening, only retainers designed for a specific type of bite (anterior or posterior) are going to keep teeth from shifting.
Add Style and Comfort
When getting a clear or metal mouth brace, it is essential to get a power chain. Power chains are used to keep your top and bottom teeth in alignment. Power chains fit around each individual tooth and connect behind your head for added support.
