I'm getting my braces off fairly soon, most likely in a month or two. I will admit, I was a stubborn child and got in a horrible oral hygiene habit since I was about 9(I never wanted to brush my teeth). My teeth are yellow and I've heard of people who had noticeably lighter colored spots on their teeth. So here are my questions: 1. Does it cost money when they polish your teeth after they take off your braces? Or is it included? If so, does this also include bleaching? 2. I've heard the best home teeth whitener is rinsing with hydrogen peroxide and brushing with bakingsoda and toothpaste. Does it really work? And is it heathly? I already have sensitive teeth. If it does help, do you rinse before or after, or does it matter? Haha(: 3. Is it possible to brush too much? Or does it not matter how much you brush everyday? Thank you so much(:

They will polish your teeth at no cost but they won't do bleaching for free. I also had bad hygiene when i had braces, and i got decalcification stains when i got them off. I personally would not try the baking soda thing. I got custom trays made from my dentist and they gave me bleach stuff and so far it has worked pretty good. I have had it for a week and it has whitened my whitened my teeth pretty quick. It was pretty expensive though.. it was $300. It's called Nite White. it is 22 % carbamide peroxide I http://www.smilox.com/smile/nite-white-2
Brushing your teeth won't make your teeth noticeably whiter though.
