How to Care for Your Teeth After Whitening Treatment

How to Care for Your Teeth After Whitening Treatment
Professional teeth whitening gives you a dramatically brighter smile, but the results need proper care to last. In the first 48 hours after treatment, your enamel pores are open and more susceptible to staining.

Avoid tea, coffee, red wine, coloured foods, and smoking immediately after whitening. Stick to white and light-coloured foods. Use a sensitivity toothpaste and brush gently. With proper maintenance, professional whitening results can last 12 to 24 months.
