I neglected my teeth when I had braces, and even after. Never wore the
retainer. Now my teeth are crooked again, and yellow. I just spent
close to $1,000 getting about 5 cavities filled. Now I'm seriouse about
taking care of my teeth. I just hope it is not too late? I know I will
need braces to fix my teeth again, but what can be done to get teeth
that are actually white??? I've tryed all sorts of whitening
toothpastes and whatnot, but my teeth are still yellow. Here's the
picture, what can I do???

Your link doesn't work...

Crest whitening strips tend to come out tops for over-the-counter
whitening products, or else you can have your dentist custom-make a
whitening tray for you. These are more popular these days than
in-office whitening, because a lower concentration of peroxide can be
used, meaning less sensitivity. "Whitening toothpastes" are next to
useless. One thing to be aware of: bonding/white fillings, crowns, etc.
will not bleach, so if you have any visible restorations of this sort,
they may need to be replaced in order to match the whitened teeth.
