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(:

Whitening during invisalign can be done inside your trays. If you are button free for a time period you can whiten with another product and not worry that it is going to be a problem.
The white spots will get whiter and the regular teeth will get lighter as well. Neither of them will be permanent. No whitening is permanent that is currently available and probably will never be.
KoR is a great system and you should end up with great results. We use color corrected lighting in most offices so when you go into other lighting the colors will look different. Outside light will make the teeth look different as well.
