Is it natural for your teeth to lose their whiteness after having braces for 3 y!


Question: Is it natural for your teeth to lose their whiteness after having braces for 3 years!?
Before I got treated my teeth were really white -- without bleaching or using special toothpaste!. But I noticed when my braces came off they really gone quite yellowy-grey!. Is it normal!? Is it just because of the trauma!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Yes, this is normal!. Your teeth are susceptible to staining after wearing a brace!. Your teeth may return to normal if you brush with a special stain-removing toothpaste (such as smokers toothpaste, even if you don't smoke) but try not to over-do it as these toothpastes can be abrasive to teeth!. Otherwise, if it bothers you, you can have professional whitening (the shop-bought whitening kits don't work) which involves visiting your dentist and having a special tray made, which you wear with a whitening gel for about half an hour a day!.
You get great results but it is pricey at around
