There is no exact time frame elastics are worn. I got braces 3 months ago and I was told to wear them 2 weeks after I got my braces on. I don't really wear them though..
Well, it all depends on your orthodontist. In most cases, braces are worn for about 1-2 years depending on the severity of the case. Talk to you orthodontist and he will tell you about how much longer he thinks you will have braces for.

the rubber bands are usually the last stage braces, but it depends on how severe the problem is the person had.
what i have found is that is also depends on the orthodontist a person goes to 2. i wore rubber bands the last year and half i had braces. just ask them how long u have to wear them,
