Yea, it does count, unless you swallow the rubber band. Seriously though, having braces and having to wear the rubber bands do not effect your fast. *Saying this from experience, as I have had braces, and so I do not have any fatwa to source.*
Salamualikum.
People listen... Braces don't affect fast but don't swollow band nor drink water cause i know you want water ALOT when braces are put it in.. WAIT! for the retainers to be put in :X
