      They would work the same as on Earth to straighten your teeth. Your crewmates would have to put their dentist training (astronauts do doctor and dentist training) to work and tighten them though if you were due for an adjustment during your time in space! Wonder if we have the right sized pliers for braces in the ISS toolkit…?
