Impossible for teeth to be white?

Hi. I am a 19 year old female and I consider myself to have good oral hygiene. I have had braces for 3 years. I brush 2 times a day with Crest whitening toothpaste, floss once a day, use a tongue scraper daily, and use mouthwash daily. I don't drink soda and I am on a low sugar diet. Despite this, I don't have white teeth. Before I got my braces my teeth weren't white either unless I used Crest Whitestrips. Well now I can't use white strips because of my braces so I'm stuck with pale yellow teeth. The color really bothers me! I've tried brushing with baking soda but I stopped doing that because I heard it can harm my braces. Is it possible to just not be able to have white teeth? Any tips on how I can whiten my teeth with braces?





Thanks!

Impossible for teeth to be white?
thats just the natural shade of your teeth. unless you bleach hard core, you will not have white teeth. i am a dental technician and there is virtually nobody with white teeth. the girls you see on tv with the stark white teeth, they are laminates.
Reply:Teeth are naturally a pale yellow color. It is nothing to be bothered by. Just keep up the good oral hygiene and once the braces come off you can treat yourself to an in-office whitening (ZOOM or any other). It will be worth the wait!
Reply:yeh, i know! my dentist tried to make my teeth white ( i filled it in on a survey ) and at the end of my check up, nothing really happend ( although it felt white , i could even taste it ) ! u should pick the dentist girl as best answer!
