Quite frankly, I would not. I understand that whitening with charcoal is all the rage on Social Media, but you would be better off with professional tooth whitening, especially with braces as the charcoal could become stuck under the brackets causing staining, the one thing that you are trying to get rid of in the first place! Professional chairside tooth whitening, which takes place in the dentists office and can lighten teeth in a single dental visit, is safe and effective. A good cosmetic dentist can also custom make bleaching trays that you take home and wear at night. With take home trays, you can see results in two to four weeks. Skip the charcoal and head to the dentists office if you want a brighter smile. Good luck!
Hi:I suggest to wait until you have removed your braces before using charcoal whtitening. Best,Dr. Maddahi
