okay..well i bought oral-b teeth whitining strips when i was like 12..and they worked..but it made my teeth sensitive a bit. Look on labels to see how the tooth whitner works..it should say in the instructions that it doesnt strip away your enamel..but some tooth whitners do. As long as you dont use it for a long period of time like a month you should be okay. If i were you i would buy strips which are about $20-$30, and they're easy to use and you see results in about 2 weeks. Follow up by using a whitning tooth paste. The ZOOM whitning at your dentist is about $500..which is not worth it unless your smile is the color of mud. Try swishing ur mouth out with the pre-whitning rinse from listerine its about 5 dollars. for a big container. and this doesnt do much but eating strawberries activiates something in your mout and it helps whiten teeth i heard.

Before you use any whitening products, you should be sure to have your teeth cleaned at the dentist or it won't work.
Try using the whitestrips (or any other product of your choice). However, once you remove the discoloration, you shouldn't do it much more after that, because you are right- whitening your teeth does ruin the enamel.
Those who keep their teeth paper white with whitening treatments to look good now are aging their teeth. Kind of like those who tan themselves to look good now are aging their skin.

Well this problem is caused by not brushing well enough leading to the place where you had the braces to be whitier and also by brushing better than before your braces.
All depends on the strips or tubes. If one you need for a shortier time do that if you have a tight schedule. It really doesn't matter.
If you do it for the time it says and how long and still doesn't work try switching to the other on.
Otherwise just brush brush brush!
