I'm all for it - you shouldn't have to wait!. Firstly, I would check with your orthodontist to see what kind of products are okay to use on the braces!. The chemicals used in whitening may damage the metals!. Maybe he/she can do it in the office for you!?
If there isn't anything that is safe on the braces, you could have them removed, have your teeth whitened, then have them put back on!. I know some people remove their braces temporarily for special occasions (ie!. graduation pictures, weddings)!. This would cost extra money, though!.

It's next to impossible to fabricate a bleaching tray since the brackets get in the way!. Your best bet would be to go for in-office type bleaching such as Zoom whitening as this doesn't require the use of a tray!. They paint the bleaching gel on while you're in the dental chair and they shine an activating light on it!.
Another solution could be to use a whitening toothpaste, such as Rembrandt!. This uses a different mechanism from bleach-type whitening!. It basically removes stains by polishing the outer layer of the tooth!.
Also, keep in mind a good 1/5 of the facial tooth surface is covered with a composite bonded bracket, meaning that area underneath would not get bleached!. You will see a dark square on every tooth when the braces are finally removed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well I wont tell you NOT to but!. You cant use the strips obviously, just use whitenting tooth paste!. When you get your braces off you can go full out whitening and actually whiten your ENTIRE tooth insted of leaving a dot of your tooth normal colour (which looks funny)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Commercial tooth whiteners use hydrogen peroxide and are expensive and inconvenient!. A cheap and natural tooth whitening home remedy uses few strawberries but certain precautions have to be taken!. I found the information at http://www!.aches!.in/toothwhitening!.htmlWww@Answer-Health@Com
