JMU Orthodontic Elastics 1/8 Medium 4.5 oz, 500 Pack Latex Intraoral Rubber Bands Orthodontic Dental Rubber Bands Made in USA

I’m really impressed with these orthodontic elastics! I was a bit skeptical at first because some elastics online can seem questionable, but these are exactly like the ones I received from my actual orthodontist. The quality is fantastic—strong, durable, and they worked just as well as the ones I’ve been using in my treatment. No issues with them snapping or losing their stretch. If you're looking for a reliable, high-quality alternative to the ones from your orthodontist, these are definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

I lost my second pack of panda bands which is what prompted this purchase. I compared a lot of bands on Amazon but nothing was a sure thing and most were filled with complaints. I took a leap of faith with these and I’m glad I did.The bands are identical (these are a smidge yellower in color.)The stretch reaches the same length as the pandaIn the photo this brand is on the left, and the panda is on the right.Note: that this brand looks frayed because I had been stretching it to its limit back to back to see if it would pop. You can’t tell due to the angle but the panda band is also frayed because I did the same thing. The panda band actually frayed first.Another note: I didn’t count the bands in the envelope so I can’t speak on the accuracy of the number. That’s a little too tedious for me 😬.

My son burns through these like water! This is a great deal for bulk quantity. Overall same quality as he gets from the orthodontist!

I was given the Ormco Zebra elastics by my Ortho, but I ran out. I looked up the specifications for Zebras on Ormco's site, which specified 5/16" diameter, heavy weight. I ordered the 5/16" heavy elastics sold from JMU here, and overall they are probably fine, but they look thicker than the zebras I had (still had a few left), and they definitely feel of a greater resistance. Don't know if it is enough to cause any issues (with invisalign) but I'll check with my Ortho. Just wanted to leave the review if others are trying to replicate the Zebra version of Ormco.

Just like the ones the orthodontist gives you.

They have an almost identical strength as the ones from the orthodontist. They are an ugly yellow, but work superbly.

These have been great for my braces journey, they’re inexpensive and of great quality. I’ve only had one or two snap on me the entire time I’ve been using them, so they’re pretty durable as well.

They do the job!! Good price for MANY bands. Durable and they don't snap easily.
