Can I start teeth whitening while I am wearing braces? We moved from Georgia last month and I have already found a new orthodontist. Now I am working on getting a new general dentist. I found a few dentists from postcards sent to my home as a new resident in the community. Both dentists offer free teeth whitening if you keep your regular exam and cleaning appointments. I think it would be great to have my teeth white when the braces come off. I am noticing some spots on my teeth anyway, so why not? My husband told me that I should check first instead of signing up for something that I can\u2019t use. I see that your office offers free teeth whitening too. Can I start it while I\u2019m wearing braces? Thanks. Brenda Leigh<\/p>\n

Brenda Leigh – When a dentist offers free teeth whitening<\/a>, you will likely receive customized bleaching trays and bleaching gel. The trays are made based on impressions of your teeth. But you\u2019re wearing braces, so to make the trays, you\u2019re braces would have to be removed, and you wouldn\u2019t be able to whiten your teeth with the braces on. So you do need to wait until your orthodontic treatment is over.<\/p>\n

Even people who wear removable braces such as Invisalign need to wait until treatment is completed before whitening their teeth. Invisalign trays are not made for whitening teeth. The trays, as well as your teeth and gums can be harmed by using Invisalign in ways for which they were not designed.<\/p>\n

This doesn\u2019t mean that you shouldn\u2019t select a dentist who offers free teeth whitening. Choose a dentist based on his or her experience and training, as well as your oral health needs. After you find a qualified dentist who offers free teeth whitening, explain your interest in the treatment. The dentist is probably willing to give it to you after your orthodontic treatment is completed.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s easy to call two or three dental offices first and explain your situation. Have a consultation at each office to meet the staff and dentist. It will help you determine if you will be comfortable with the practice. After your braces are permanently removed and your teeth are cleaned, you can enjoy a bright smile.<\/p>\n
