Teeth Whitening, Lost cause?
I was wondering what to do for my teeth. I am going to college next year. In my second year I am getting braces, top and bottom at separate times.. it's really late and there are reasons for why I am caring now but w/e the damage is done. I would like my teeth whitened but is there a point if I am just going to get braces later? I would probably need the procedure done more than once.. how many months should I wait in between getting them whitened?
Reason being, I brush erratically when I feel like it and I finally kind of started brushing.. usually once a day as of last year. I am seeing the ramifications of not properly brushing or brushing at all over the 17 years I've been alive. So my question is, will laser teeth whitening work for me? I'm not sure what it's called or if there are other methods. For example, Crest Whitestrips probably aren't strong enough for me, right? Everyone is always talking about yellow stains on their teeth due to coffee and tea, but what about for teeth that are naturally a little yellow or teeth that have been neglected (have not been brushed for a long time)? :[ Please help! Thanks in advance!

i would say you should use crest whitestrips for now, laser after braces.
brush twice a day with a whitening toothpaste,
floss daily,
use a whitening mouthwash.
take care of your teeth!

well if your going to get braces soon i would advice you not to go get them like professionally whitened because you would just be wasting money because when you have braces no one can tell what color teeth you have. and whenever people get braces off there teeth are always yellow! so your not alone. but before you get them on if you want a fast easy way to get them a tad lighter you should get crest white strips, or even an off brand of them works the same and just as well. they really do work i had very yellow teeth after having braces on for 5 years and i used whitestrips and my teeth are nice and white now. i hope i answered all your questions! best of luck!
