i just had my braces on few months ago, and already iam seeing my teeth going yellowish gradually. and my front tooth there's weird "white" patches amongst the yellowish areas, i tried brushing with normal and interdental brushes, but it doesn't seem to work. i saw toothpastes in the supermarkets, there are colgate whitening, pearlie white whitening and one called Theramed whitening. i bought the theramed, and i am using it regularly, but i don't see the whitening effect as well. What toothpastes or products would u guys recommend while i try to whiten or maintain the whiteness until i take off my braces.. =( And what should i look out for.
--------------------
Its very hard to properly clean teeth with braces, you should be dedicating at least 5-10 min a night to properly floss and claen around your braces, this will help with the spots the most. Whitening toothpaste actualy has a slight abrasive in the paste, its only good for surface stains, like coffee, tea, wine stains. If i were you I would clean my teeth very well twice a day and wait untill your braces are off and get your teeth profesionaly whitend by your dentist. The take home trays are about 200 dollars and they take about 2weeks and they work very well.
