Answer 1

I got mine off 2 years ago.

They sort of 'sand' any discoloration. And they clean your teeth there.

But in case, they are stained. Try an at-home teeth whitening by Remebrant (I'm not sure of the spelling) It's a 2 hour treatment. It makes a huge difference and it's only $25.

Answer 2

I was really worried about it too when I got mine off. And they weren't such a lovely color at first but then after like 2 days of using Simply White from Crest I think, (white and red box) they were fine and pretty white.

Answer 3

Don't worry I had them when I was younger and didn't brush as nearly much as I should have. They'll play with the color to make them mach as best as possible it part of all the fees they charge. They wont let just let it go, cause it would make them look bad. Cooongrats thought! [[[=

Answer 4

If they do end up being discolored, just get a whitening kit from the store and brush your teeth really well. You should be just fine. The only advice I can give is to make sure you wear your retainers like the doctor tells you to. I slacked off a lot and didn't wear them as much as I should and my teeth moved right back to where they were before I got braces. I feel bad about it now because my parents spent so much money on them at the time and it all went to waste.

Don't be nervous. Seeing your new straight smile is such a wonderful experience! Be excited about it!

Answer 5

you will see a little difference nut with a little brushing it will leave.

Answer 6

its fine. I didnt brush my teeth as much as i should of. if you dont have any cavities when you get them off, thats good! if your teeth are yellow, theres a way to make them white again. sprinkle baking soda on your toothpaste because you need the flouride from your toothpaste and the baking soda whitens. its way cheaper than buying arm and hammer toothpaste. i tried arm and hammer and it made my teeth hurt and my gums red and i got sores from it. and i only used it once a day because it was really strong.^_^♥

Answer 7

Well just keep brushing i suppose.

Lay off the sweets and fizzy drinks etc..

And smile!!!

Answer 8

Mine were 2 colors for like 3 days after I got them off. The colors fade into one color pretty quick. So its nothing to get nervous about.

Answer 9

You'll do just fine if you have received those grades.  It's people that don't always brush their teeth and eat foods that will rot there teeth that make that little lovely combination of discolored teeth when the braces come off.  Congratulations!

Answer 10

don't worry about it, your teeth will not be two colors...if you want to, get some Rembrandt whitening strips..they're cheaper than Crest, and they work just as well, if not faster!  

Answer 11

well maybe when you get you're braces off, for the next few days, get  something called "deep cleaning".
