pulling with braces?

I have pulled a few times and was impressed, but for some reason I didn't stick with it. Well, I just got braces a week ago and with all the extra time I have to spend cleaning my teeth now I figure there is no good reason not to commit to OP. So just a couple questions (I tried to search the forum and didn't really find an answer)

If you have braces, have you had any negative experiences (loosening of brackets, etc.)? I see it has been recommended to just start with shorter pulls.

Also...I know how well this works for whitening the teeth, but when I have my braces removed (2+ years from now), do you think I'll have spots where the braces cemented onto the tooth? I hope not.

Either way if nobody has experience with this, I'll be the guinea pig and track my progress!
