PRECISION CUTTING: Our proprietary cutting technique, along with our select latex, ensures we are effectively controlling the precision cutting process across our entire elastomerics facility. This process also guarantees all of our elastomerics are made with the consistent pulling forces necessary to meet the performance expectations you are accustomed to receiving from American Orthodontics.
TOP QUALITY LATEX: American Orthodontics takes great pride in manufacturing elastomerics using the highest quality latex tubing with consistent thickness to further the goal of encouraging patient compliance in wearing their bands as prescribed.

American Orthodontics takes great pride in manufacturing our Wildlife Series elastics using top quality latex tubing with perfect thickness. Our proprietary technique results in precision cutting and guarantees consistent pulling forces.
American Orthodontics offers our most widely used sizes of prepackaged elastics in Wildlife Series patient packs which feature endangered and threatened animals from all over the world. These patient packs appeal to patients of all ages, especially those with a concern for ecological issues. 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. And showing that you care about the environment is a great way to promote your practice.
Choosing the right elastic.
We determine the force of elastics 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".
Some sizes available in Neon Colors.
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.
MADE TO PROTECT: Our non-latex Color Chains are made with certified non-latex, hypo-allergenic material for maximum protection of even the most sensitive patients. These special chains are manufactured by certified personnel at American Orthodontics in a completely separate, latex-clean facility which features its own air and ventilation system.
CONSISTENT FORCE: Our vibrant line of Color Chains is designed and meticulously crafted with consistent force in closed, short and long filaments. This pulling force slows degradation of the chain and allows them to last longer and stay functional in a way that most elastic chains will not.
MEDICAL GRADE MATERIALS: Color Chains are crafted using a colorfast medical grade polyurethane ensuring durability, enhanced function and color preservation. With these exceptional materials, American Orthodontics produces chains which keep color longer and are stain resistant.
FUN AND FUNCTIONAL: With fun and function as the hallmark of American Orthodontics' Elastomerics line of products, these colorful chains are made to match with other products such as the Elastomerics Ligatures. Match any of these 29 exciting colors to other orthodontia of your patients or even use their favorite color. With so many choices to choose from, everyone will always have the style they want!
