WARNING: Patients with an identified latex
allergy should not use latex elastics. In
undiagnosed patients, if irritation occurs,
discontinue use immediately and
consult a physician.
American Orthodontics takes great pride in
manufacturing our Wildlife SeriesTM elastics using
top quality latex tubing with exacting dimensions.
Our proprietary technique results in precision
cutting and assures consistent pulling forces.

American Orthodontics offers our most widely used
sizes of prepackaged elastics in Wildlife SeriesTM patient packs which feature endangered and threatened
animals from all over the world. By faithfully wearing
their elastics, patients can feel they are doing their
part in preserving and protecting these animals. This
additional incentive may be just the motivator to get
patients to wear their rubber bands.

Smaller Package Option
S 5000 Total Elastics - 50 patient packs per box (100 elastics per pack)
Choosing the right elastic
The force of elastics is determined at
three times the starting diameter. The
activation level should be three times
the starting diameter. For example, if
the activation level is 9/16" measured,
the correct elastic would be 3/16".
