Aftercare Instructions
Tips to keep your smile, white and bright.
To ensure a bright and white smile, proper aftercare is essential. Here are some tips to maintain your whitened smile for an extended period:
In the first hour after your treatment, it is advisable to avoid all foods and drinks except clear liquids. Water is the best option during this time.
For the next 24 hours, brush your teeth gently with light pressure, using an electric toothbrush if possible, but remember to turn it off. Avoid flossing for the next 24-48 hours to allow your teeth to heal.
To prevent your teeth from becoming discolored, avoid consuming dark-colored foods and drinks as the enamel will be more porous than usual following your treatment. Opt for light-colored, white and clear foods and beverages instead.
It is also important to avoid consuming acidic foods and drinks such as tomatoes, citrus fruits, wine and carbonated beverages as they may cause sensitivity.
To maintain a healthy and bright smile, use a demineralizing gel, such as Minerals Enamel Booster, which contains fluoride, potassium nitrate and calcium phosphate. This gel helps to replenish minerals lost over time, rehydrates the teeth, strengthens the enamel, and reduces sensitivity.
