Changing what your teeth look like
When front teeth first come through into the mouth, the top surface of the tooth is often slightly bumpy. This is normal and it is a result of the way teeth develop. Over a period of time these little bumps wear down and the surface flattens. If the reason that you are wearing a brace is because your front teeth do not meet very often, it is probable that these bumps have not worn down.
If you are wearing "train tracks" this may affect the colour of your teeth because some of the apparent colour of your teeth is due to light reflecting off them. This will tend to make the gum area look darker and the tip of your tooth look more see-through. Most people when they wear a brace are much more conscious of their teeth and the way they look, than they usually are.
