At Sachdev Family Orthodontics, you can change your braces rubber band colors at appointments, creating different custom smiles all year long! To kickstart your inspiration, we’ve compiled a list of seven of our favorite braces color combinations to brighten your spring.

Why do I need elastics on my braces?

Aside from the fact that you can have a ton of fun personalizing your braces colors, there are also practical reasons to wear your braces elastics. These tiny elastics help secure your wires in your brackets, so your braces can apply the steady pressure needed to guide your teeth into the correct position. At Sachdev Family Orthodontics, our elastics are crafted from medical-grade latex, which is safe to come in contact with your mouth. Dr. Sachdev can also use an alternative material if you have a latex allergy.

Top 7 Spring Braces Colors

1. Rockland Robin Egg

Nothing quite says spring like the lively sound of birds chirping. Get into the spirit by swapping your braces elastics with the colors of a robin’s egg. Alternate between robin-egg blue for the base and white to represent the egg’s speckles. Braces colors: Light blue and white

2. Buttermilk Falls

Buttermilk Falls Park is one of Rockland County’s greatest gems, and with the weather finally warming up, we can actually enjoy it! This braces color combo leans into nature with lush greens and floral accents. Braces colors: Dark green and pink

3. Red Raiders

Go, team, go! Support your Rockland spring sports teams by matching your braces elastics to the color of the North Rockland School Districts’ mascot. Bonus: these braces colors would look amazing on Sachdev Family Orthodontics ceramic braces to let the red pop. Braces colors: Red and white

4. Hudson Hues

Travel to quaint river towns like Nyack, Tarrytown, Sleepy Hollow, Tappan and Piermont with your braces colors this spring. Let your braces elastics pick up on the river hues and old town charm. Braces colors: Blue and gold

5. Buds in Bloom

Grab your bud with braces in Rockland, and go for a matching color scheme! Mix up braces color combinations of sky blue, daisy yellow, and leaf green for a proper ode to spring. Braces colors: Sky blue, yellow, and light green

6. Easter Egg Shimmer

We love the pastel tones of Easter. This season, layer colors like pink, purple, and yellow for a softer color scheme. The silver of your brackets will add a hint of shimmer to this color palette, keeping it festive! Braces colors: Pastel purple, pink, and yellow

7. Sachdev’s Splish Splash

It isn’t spring without some showers. Brighten up a rainy day with your colorful smile! Mix and match your braces rubber bands with your favorite sunny tones. Braces colors: Orange and yellow
