Follow a white diet for at least seven days after the treatment.
You may eat foods such as rice, chicken, or turkey.
If you experience dental sensitivity or discomfort, you may take an anti-inflammatory to alleviate it. Please note that these are temporary and very common sensations.
If sensitivity persists for several days or becomes excessively bothersome, please consult us to examine the issue and address it as soon as possible.
Do not smoke. It will harm the whitening and cause your teeth to yellow again in a short time.
Maintain strict oral hygiene, especially after whitening. Avoid mouthwashes that may contain chlorhexidine, such as Perio.aid or Periokin.
Avoid consuming carbonated drinks for 15 days after the treatment. Do not consume beverages with colorants, such as coffee, tea, or red wine, as they can severely compromise the whitening. To prevent these drinks from contacting your teeth, you may use a straw.
Avoid fruits such as strawberries, cherries, or raspberries to prevent staining your teeth. Try not to consume citrus fruits, as their acidity can affect your enamel.
Do not consume foods like tomatoes, carrots, or beets in the days following your whitening. They can stain your teeth and compromise the whitening results.
It is important to note that after whitening, teeth are particularly prone to staining. Therefore, it is crucial to follow dietary guidelines to prolong the treatment results for much longer.
Professional dental cleanings will be very helpful in removing external stains that may appear due to coffee, tea, tobacco, carbonated drinks, chlorhexidine-based mouthwashes, etc.
A complete hygiene routine is essential to maintain the whiteness of your teeth. Remember to brush thoroughly three times a day, using tools such as dental floss or mouthwashes.
Visit our dental clinic at least once a year to examine the state of your oral health.
ATTENTION! Whenever you experience discomfort in your gums or teeth, you must notify our office and schedule an appointment. Although initial discomfort is normal, if it is not severe, you may wait four or five days. However, if it has not disappeared after this time, or if it worsens with the passing days, you must inform us and schedule an appointment immediately. If any problem arises, do not attempt to resolve it yourself: Please schedule an appointment with us. Do not allow anyone other than your dentist to adjust your splint, as the prescribing and fitting practitioner is the only one authorized to do so.
