1. Get your teeth cleaned every 3 months.
2. Brush after every meal, or at least twice a day.
3. Floss at least every night.
4. Avoid sugary foods. If you do eat sugary foods, rinse with water afterward.
After your braces come off, if there are any stains, you can use a whitening product to remove them.
I had braces for 3 years and no stains. If you take good care of your teeth while in braces it will not be a problem.

Make sure you take very good care of your teeth while you have your braces on them. Brush 2-3 times a day. Then after you get them off, have them cleaned. They will probably be fine.

The white stains are the beginnings of a cavity. If you brush your teeth often and thoroughly then you don't have anything to worry about. Just make sure that you are removing ALL of the plaque and food debris from your tooth surface every time you brush.

Go to the dentist right when you get them off and have your teeth cleaned professionally. I did and it was gone.
