No spacers here as my Ortho hates bands, so there was no need for them. I have brackets on my molars and they have the elastic hooks on them and not a hook to hold a headgear.
I thought I was going to get one band as I had a bracket that fell off three times, but she just roughened the surface of the tooth and placed the bracket lower down the tooth.
Spacers (who had them/ who didnt)

I've had spacers in for about 5 days now and I am happy to report that they are no longer hurting and crunchy foods are no longer the devil!
I am so glad I've found AW. Now I know to ask if the cleats on my soon-to-have molar bands are necessary or not so he can clip them off and save me the pain!![Surprised :o](./images/smilies/icon_surprised.gif)
