Q. Hello, I had braces 2 years ago and had such a hectic lifestyle that i did not give thorough attention to cleaning my teeth very well around the braces. Overtime I hated wearing them and got them removed. This left my teeth with strong stains which I am unable to get rid off to date. My teeth are so tightly packed and where these stains reside leads to rotting in that area. However I took out two teeth in my upper jaw when getting the braces. My dentist says that I will require a lifetime of treatment with a filling almost at all checkups that i’ll have…you can imagine that I have now become used to those painful injections. I want each tooth to be totally free of these stains and want them perfectly straight. Is cosmetic dentistry an option?
