Braces off...?!


Question:

Braces off...?

i'm getting my braces off tomorrow! yay! but i'm scared i might have little white squares... i have an appointment with my dentist to get my teeth cleaned and hopefully whitened next week... but i don't want to walk around with icky teeth till then! any solutions?


Answers:

That sounds like nice news. If you have taken good care of your teeth by thoroughly cleaning them while they were on you shouldn't have a problem. If you do have "white squares" and they aren't related to stain buildup then you will probably have them permanently, possibly even after whitening as it is caused by tooth breakdown. In that case you might choose to have a white filling material (composite) over them for esthetic reasons.
Good luck!
