Answer 1

I just got my braces off, and your teeth can get a bit dingy after having those things on for awhile. My teeth weren't the exact color I wanted them to be, they weren't totally nasty, but they weren't as white as I wanted, so I asked my orthodontist to take impressions to make me some Bleach Trays.

Bleach Trays are just things you use at home, and all it is, is a little plastic mold that is in the shape of your teeth. They give you a little tube of bleach, which is kinda gel-like, and you squirt some of that into the trays, pop 'em in and sleep with them in over night. You take them off in the morning and after one day you will start to see results. Keep doing it until your teeth are the shade you want them to be.

And, a plus side is, they're reusable, so whenever your teeth start to discolor again, you can just buy more bleach and get them back to being pretty and white. =]

Answer 2

been there!

the orthodontist doesn't really "clean" your teeth when your braces come off at all. He/She more like scrapes the glue off, and metal and everything. He/she will not really help in your yellow problem, (sorry to say), but he will make yuor teeth straight.

I would advise you to shucdule an appointment with your actual dentist for a "cleaninggg' shortly after you get your braces off!

and also you can go to a local store and buy WHITE STRIPS, they have all different kinds. they are about 30bucks.  but are well worth it!

they do make your teeth sensitve a little, but its worth it.

Make sure you buy "whitening toothpaste, and mouthwash" and brush all the time, and i am sure your teeth will be straight and white in no timE!

goodluck!

Nothing to worry. When you will get your braces off, your dentist will do the scaling and polishing of your teeth. Your teeth will look nice and beautiful.for more information on braces you can visit the following link

Answer 4

well, the orthodontist will polish your teeth and get all of the cement and everything like that off.

and then if you just ask your mom or dad, im sure they will take you to the dentist to get your teeth cleaned!

if not, just buy some crest white strips and use them, you wont need a lot.

also, in the next few weeks or however long its gonna take for you to get them off, brush your teeth a lot to get all the plaque and food away.

that will make them less yellow.

and dont drink coffee if you do, because it stains your teeth. and if you do, brush your teeth right after so they dont turn more yellow.

hope i helped!

Answer 5

they will look better than they do now

they wont clean your teeth for you unless you ask

and to whiten then you could try some whitening toothpaste

try sensodyne gentle whitening because most of the other whitening toothpastes are very abrasive and will thin your enamel
