And Crest White Strips cleared them all up, I used them about 4 years ago, and my teeth are STILL white! =) [ XXhiGhMaIntEnCe's advice column | Ask XXhiGhMaIntEnCe A Question ]
Mackenzie answered Monday August 23 2004, 1:02 pm: Uhm, well this isn't Really cheap, but you could tRy those CRest Whitening StRips. I suppose they woRk foR some, but not foR all! They didn't do a DAMN THING foR my paRents, but my fRiend's Mom said they completely Renewed heR confidence... she sweaRs it did so much foR heR. So I guess if you'Re willing to Risk it, go foR it; and I suppose it's woRth the "Risk"!! HoweveR, I just use whitening tooth paste, and my teeth aRe so white it's blinding!! I suggest tRying to toothpaste befoRe you put a cRap loud of money into the CRest Whitening StRips!! Goodluck; I wish you the best!! =D [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
pimpettex answered Sunday August 22 2004, 10:07 pm: i used to have braces :-D . i used a mouthwash called ACT. i dunno... dentist said it would keep them clean. and when u brush put ur toothbrush so the bristles point up and then push it between the wire and your teeth to get the food out. as for whitening i used crest white strips and they worked awesum! hope i helped.. good luck!!

AngelaMarie824 answered Sunday August 22 2004, 9:52 pm: crest night effects or crest whitening strips for after you get ur braces off. And brush ur teeth with baking soda or a toothpaste that has baking soda in it for when u still have ur braces on.. it works! :) [ AngelaMarie824's advice column | Ask AngelaMarie824 A Question ]

lilkimmy7290 answered Sunday August 22 2004, 5:33 pm: I had braces and i just got them last tuesday. If ur doing a good job brushin them while having braces they should be white. But if they r not then try crest whitestrips and stuff like that or buy a toothpaste with whitening in it. that should help a little. Just while having ur braces on make sure u bursh really good and u should be fine. Hope i helped.send me any of ur other questions.bye [ lilkimmy7290's advice column | Ask lilkimmy7290 A Question ]
TucanFullOfHoles answered Sunday August 22 2004, 5:21 pm: its not cheap, but what works the best is Crest white strips. i had the same problem. you'd be surprised how clean your teeth actually are. try doing mouth wash (like listerene) untill then.

Karen answered Sunday August 22 2004, 5:05 pm: After you get your braces off, you have to wear a retainer no matter what. Umm, Crest Night Effects works great and I think it costs less than $20 but I dont know the exact price. Sorry. Also, use whitening toothpaste. Hope I helped :) [ Karen's advice column | Ask Karen A Question ]
