Can you wear whitening trays when having permanate retainers?

Im getting my braces off in a week, and I'm wondering how i can whiten my teeth. I want to purchase the CVS whitening trays, but im wondering if you have permanate retainers, can you still put the trays on... Thanks!!!

Probably not, the retainers will be in the way. Besides you wouldn't want to have darker areas where the retainers are touching and/or blocking your teeth.

Cost of Professinally Dentist made whitening trays?

I have been considering getting whitening trays made and I was wondering if anyone could give me an extimated cost of what it would be? I would really like a few answers becasue I know costs vary.

My mom is using them right now. Her custom made trays and whitening gel cost $500 and we live in central NC. All the employees at out dentist swear by them and they have really white teeth.

Today, teeth whitening is one of the most sought after procedures to improve appearance. Many people do put in a considerable amount of time and effort in finding the most effective teeth whitening procedure for themselve.

If you want to whiten your teeth, you can either go to a dentist and have him or her perform a teeth whitening procedure on you, or you can buy a mouthpiece or tray with teeth whitening chemical and use it at home.

Typically, a tray is a rubber or plastic based mouthpiece. You boil a tray and place it in your mouth so that it gets molded into the shape of your mouth. When the mouthpiece cools and settles around your teeth, it is now ready for you to use. You can then place the teeth whitening chemicals inside the tray and use it.

You can use a tray to whiten your teeth for 30 to 60 minutes. You do this on a weekly or monthly basis until your teeth acquire the whiteness you desire. Once you achieve your desired white shade, it is good to continue using the tray at least once a month to maintain your teeth's whiteness.

Compared to using teeth whitening toothpaste or teeth whitening strips, using trays can be a bit uncomfortable. However, they are more effective than whitening toothpaste and strips. The main advantage with using trays is that you use them for only a short amount of time each day. You don't have to do multiple brushings or strips. For just 30 minutes a day, you can easily whiten your teeth.

While laser teeth whitening or the traditional bleaching done by a dentist is far more effective than the home teeth whitening trays, it can be cost prohibitive. If you are on a budget, using teeth whitening trays is a more practical solution. It may take a while for results to show, but you will eventually get the whiter teeth you want.
