Why in the world are you trying to take this off? Let your dentist do this, silly!!!!

Often when these bands come off, there is Orthodontic cement left behind on the tooth, like a chunk of calculus or tartar. You should have this scrapped off your tooth by the dentist. Therefore, if you want the last band off, you should see a dentist.

You shouldn't remove it, it is there to create space and meant to be left until your next appointment, for the ortho placement or braces. This appointment may need to be changed since you've removed the other spacers, there may not be enough room for the bands to go on without causing you pain.
