Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic procedure that can dramatically enhance your smile. At Colair Beauty Lounge & Med Spa, we offer professional teeth whitening services to help you achieve a radiant smile. However, maintaining that bright smile requires some care and attention. Here are five tips to keep your teeth looking their best after a whitening treatment.
Practice Good Oral Hygiene
Good oral hygiene is essential for maintaining the results of your teeth whitening treatment. Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss daily to remove plaque and prevent stains. Using a whitening toothpaste can also help maintain your bright smile. Don’t forget to replace your toothbrush every three months or sooner if the bristles are frayed.
Avoid Staining Foods and Drinks
Certain foods and beverages can stain your teeth and diminish the effects of your whitening treatment. To keep your smile bright, try to limit your consumption of the following:
- Coffee and Tea: Both beverages contain tannins that can stain teeth.
- Red Wine: Known for its rich color, red wine can easily cause discoloration.
- Soda: The acidity and color of sodas can contribute to staining.
- Berries: While healthy, dark-colored berries like blueberries and blackberries can stain your teeth.
- Tomato Sauce: Its acidity and color can lead to discoloration.
If you do consume these foods or drinks, rinse your mouth with water afterward to minimize their staining effects.
Quit Smoking
Smoking is a major cause of tooth discoloration. The nicotine and tar in cigarettes can cause yellow or brown stains that are difficult to remove. Quitting smoking not only benefits your overall health but also helps maintain your bright smile. If you need help quitting, consider seeking support from a healthcare professional.
Use a Straw for Beverages
When drinking beverages that can stain your teeth, such as coffee, tea, or soda, use a straw. This helps minimize contact between the liquid and your teeth, reducing the risk of stains. Opt for reusable straws to be environmentally friendly.
Schedule Regular Dental Cleanings
Regular dental cleanings are crucial for maintaining your oral health and the results of your teeth whitening treatment. Visit your dentist every six months for a professional cleaning and check-up. Your dentist can also provide additional whitening touch-ups if needed to keep your smile looking its best.
