How do you keep your teeth white while you have braces?

Just keep brushing your teeth twice a day as you do without braces, the braces shouldn't make much of a difference! bicarbonate soda is supposed to be really good for making your teeth whiter aswell!

Try to not drink to much coffee or tea or have a lot of sweets and brush twice a day

Don't use any whitening products or when you get your braces off there'll be spots on your teeth. But also make sure you don't stain your teeth or there'll be spots too.

I've been in braces for 8 years and I thought they were going to look awful! Turns out as long as you brush and floss regularly and don't overdo it on the things that can stain your teeth you'll be fine. :) If you want to whiten them while you have braces you can ask your orthodontist about treatments or wait until you get them off and get those crest white strips thingies. I used the everyday ones a few times and my friend saw a difference after the second or third time! :)
