I want to do it before my senior portraits for high school (finally!). I've had braces for almost 5 years and my orthodontist gave me permanent retainers behind my teeth with the glue (not sure what it's called) and a wire after he removed my braces. I know I can't use baking soda at home to whiten my teeth because it wears away the glue, but can I still get my teeth professionally whitened? And this has nothing to do with whitening at all, but I really want to become a dentist in the future(:
