The Ultimate Guide to Keeping Your Teeth White After Professional Whitening

You just stepped out of Clinton Dental Group with a fresh, dazzling smile after a professional teeth whitening treatment. Congratulations! Now, how do you maintain that bright, new smile? Here’s your ultimate guide.

1. Watch What You Eat (And Drink!)

After your whitening treatment, avoid stain-causing foods and beverages for at least 48 hours. These include:

• Coffee and tea

• Red wine

• Dark berries

• Tomato-based sauces

If it will stain a white shirt, it will stain your teeth! Instead, opt for foods that naturally scrub your teeth, like apples, carrots, celery, and dairy products, which also boost enamel health.

2. Improve Your Oral Hygiene Habits

Brushing twice daily and flossing at least once is essential. For added protection, use a whitening toothpaste recommended by our experienced dentists in Clinton NJ

3. Quit or Reduce Tobacco Use

Smoking or chewing tobacco quickly stains teeth. Reducing or eliminating tobacco will drastically extend the effects of your whitening treatment.

4. Regular Dental Cleanings Are Key

Professional cleanings every six months at Clinton Dental Group remove plaque and tartar buildup, keeping your smile brighter longer.

5. Consider Touch-Up Treatments

Teeth whitening isn’t permanent. Depending on your lifestyle, periodic touch-ups might be necessary. Ask our dentists for recommendations based on your specific needs.

Your beautiful, bright smile doesn’t have to fade! With th

ese tips, you can enjoy a whiter smile longer and keep feeling confident.

Schedule your next appointment at Clinton Dental Group and keep smiling brightly!
