Keep Pearly Whites After Teeth Whitening

premier • Aug 15, 2019

After a teeth whitening treatment at your dentist there are a few tips to help your teeth stay bright white for as long as possible. A pearly white smile makes you happy and gives you more confidence. Since you paid for the professional whitening treatment at the dentist you really want it to last. With these tips your teeth can stay bright and white for about 6 months or even up to a year.

Be Aware of Your Eating and Drinking

After your treatment at the dental clinic do not drink coffee, red wine, or dark sodas for at least two days, but a week would be best. After a week use a straw to avoid stains on your teeth. Certain foods can stain your teeth as well. Stay away from blueberries, beets, tomato sauce, and soy sauce.  Since these beverages and foods can easily stain a white t-shirt, they can stain your white teeth as well.

Maintain Healthy Habits           

Dental care is very important for oral hygiene and to keep your teeth bright and white. See your dental office for regular cleaning checkups, floss and brush twice a day, and rinse with a antibacterial mouthwash. Quit smoking or don’t start smoking, which can really cause your teeth to yellow. Also check with your dentist before whitening your teeth, because some medications such as blood pressure medication and antihistamines can stain your teeth. Occasionally, use a at home teeth whitening kit to maintain your pearly whites.

With these tips and habits you will be flashing that pearly white smile everywhere you go.
