I really want pretty teeth when they come off because I used to be the kid with huge buck teeth so is there anything I can do (besides electric toothbrush and whitening toothpaste) to whiten them. The crest whitestrips say not to use them with braces so I need something else.

I Went the Other Day To talk about a Plan For Braces and you Know how They Always Have Like a Fake Jaw With all the Different Colors of Bands? I Was Just Wondering if That would be All the Colors they have or if There’s Some Different ones in the Back? The Colors I Saw there Where Nice But I Had Other Ideas.
I Was Thinking Something like Hot Pink and Turquoise or Something with Blue
Thanks!!

I went to the dentists for the first time in 6 months today and he said that drinking gatorade and powerade and other drinks like that is bad but he didn’t really specify all the different kinds or anything. So I was wondering if things like juice, coffee, lemonade, etc… are okay to drink.
