Getting braces on is a wonderful thing that can help to give you the beautiful, straight teeth that you desire. Braces can also be a lot of fun! One super fun aspect of having braces is the ability to change your band colors. These colors can be changed each time that you come to Grosso Orthodontics for a check-up, and the color options that you have are essentially endless. This makes it possible to really make your braces look how you’d like them to and it can make them pop at the same time. Here are four fun ideas to consider when it comes to picking out what colors you’d like for your bands.
Seasonal Colors
One fun way to personalize the colors of your bands is for holidays. For example, you can do green and red for Christmas, black and orange for Halloween, red and pink for Valentine’s Day, different shades of green for Saint Patrick’s Day, red, white, and blue for the 4th of July, and more. You can also go with seasonal colors as well, such as red and yellow for fall, different shades of blue and white for winter, pastel colors for spring, and bright or neon colors for summer.
Athletic Colors
If you are a fan of any sports teams, it can be fun to choose band colors that match their colors. This is awesome because you can change your colors out as each sport season begins to show your pride and allegiance for your team, such as football, basketball, baseball, hockey, soccer, volleyball, etc. You can even switch your bands out for big tournament games like March Madness or The Super Bowl. This is also a great idea if you play sports yourself and would like your bands to match your team’s colors. This shows a lot of pride in your sport and can be really fun and creative at the same time. All the members on your team with braces could even get involved.
Personality Colors
A lot of people like to express their personality through their clothes, their hair, and other aspects of their outward appearance. One great way to express your personality with your braces is to choose band colors that match your personality. You can get band colors that are your favorite colors, or ones that are the same colors as your favorite musical group, television show, etc. You can also choose band colors that match the colors of clothes that you normally wear.
Specialized Colors
There are also band colors that are a bit more unique and can be great to choose from time to time. You can choose from metallic colors, like gold, silver, or bronze. These are awesome because they match the wires and brackets of your braces well. You can also choose from a variety of band colors that are made to glow in the dark. This is super fun if you are going to an event where it is going to be dark, such as a dance, a party, an outdoor event at night, etc. Some colors are also made to look glittery, shiny, or otherwise flashy and are great for adding some “bling” to your braces.
Overall, it is hard to go wrong when it comes to choosing the colors for your bands. The process of picking them out is totally fun and entirely up to you. You can choose from seasonal colors that work great throughout the year, athletic colors that help you support your favorite sport teams, personalized colors that really match you and your personality, or specialty colors that are awesome to use when you want to mix things up a bit.
