Question by Stacie F: What is the best way to whiten teeth after having braces removed?I am 22 and recently got braces. I drink coffee regularly and am sure that I will have stains around where the braces are. What is the best way to whiten teeth? I have heard that laser teeth whitening may be a good way to go, but that it can be very expensive. How much does this typically cost? Are whitening strips just as effective? if so, will there be noticable stains for a long time, or do the stains start to fade immediately? I would really appreciate the advice of someone who has experienced this sort of problem

I recently just started working at a dental office. Not to scare you, but a woman came into our office last week and she had her teeth whitened and you could see the outline of her braces. This doesn't happen very often but make sure all of the cement or whatever was used for your braces is removed completely from your teeth. You can always ask your dentist or orthodontist if your teeth are okay for a whitening. A good treatment is called Zoom. I believe it is around 350$ . I have not done it yet but I would like to get it done soon.
