DO BRACES MAKE TEETH WHITER? ...do they?

i have known two people who have had braces and their teeth were incredibly white once they took them off...i'm wondering if braces make teeth any whiter and how? Also when is the best age to get braces??

DO BRACES MAKE TEETH WHITER? ...do they?
they probably got their teeth whitened after getting them taken off.
Reply:No, it's probably just being used to the darker color of the braces.
Reply:it could be that they got their teeth whitened after their braces were removed. My ortho asked me when i got my braces off if i wanted to have my teeth whitened in addition to the normal after removal cleaning at no additional charge.
Reply:When your about 10-15 is the best age to get braces!! and NO braces don't make teeth whiter!!! It's because you have to brush your teeth really well that your teeth become whiter!!!
Reply:I don't see how the braces themselves would make their teeth whiter.





If that's the case though, it might just be from the extra care one might have of their teeth while having braces. They're undergoing expensive orthodontic treatment afterall, I doubt they'd neglect their teeth at that point.





That might turn into whiter than average teeth, with all the brushing and caring they probably perform.
Reply:No, the braces don't make the teeth whiter. Since they do cover the teeth they may protect them from the day to day foods and drinks that cause stains ( such as: coffee, tea etc.). The best time to get braces is when you have lost all of your baby teeth and have grown in your adult teeth. So, the age will vary from person to person. Good luck to you.
Reply:NO braces do not make your teeth whiter, if any thing they can make them yellower. as they are harder to clean.


As for the best age, that depends on what the problems in your mouth are.


Go see your dentist for a good chat.
Reply:I have braces for about 2 years, but this year would be my last brace year! so excited! Actually it makes my teeth whiter than before(I really had a yellow teeth before, it is because I had a monthly appointment to my dentist, and every time I got her clinic, she cleans and brush my teeth, then put some fluid(I don't know what it called) on my teeth.
