Can you use teeth whitening strips with a retainer?

I'm getting my braces off soon, and I wanted to get some whitening strips to bring my teeth up a few shades. However, I was curious about whether or not I can use these when I have to wear a retainer. I don't want any odd stripes of white! Thank you!

I did the same thing when I got my braces off. Yes you can use them while you have a retainer, just as long as you're not using both of them at the same time. I think you have to wear the retainer almost all the time for a few weeks and then you wear it less and less. Use the whitestrips in a time when you don't have to wear it, possibly after you eat and brush your teeth but before bed.
