Can you use whitening strips if you are getting a "flipper tooth"?

Question:

I have braces right now. I get them off very soon. Apparently, I'm not old enough to get an implant tooth... I have to wait a year for that. So, I have to get something called a flipper. Which I can take in and out... Just wondering If I can use whitening strips if I have a flipper.

Answers:
you can use the strips, but they will not change the colour of your flipper, you can whiten your teeth first and have your dentist make the flipper tooth same shade as natural teeth. I tmay be better to wait the year before you get your implant and get whitening done at your dental office, either a take home kit or Zoom. Even though it is more expensive to so the whitening through your dentist, it is better to under their care will whitening and you will get much better results, then you can get custom shadng done at the dental lab when you have your implant done
