Further Advice
Following these teeth whitening after-care instructions will help your teeth whitening results last as long as possible, and keep your enamel strong and healthy.
Use Remineralizing Gel
Seal and strengthen your teeth at the end of your professional teeth whitening treatment with a remineralizing gel (aka remi gel) such as Minerals Enamel Booster. Several scientific studies concluded that remi gel “can significantly enhance the microhardness of bleached enamel.” The remineralizing gel replenishes minerals (calcium, fluoride, and potassium) in your teeth. This helps seal in results and block out stains. The longer you can leave the remi gel on, the better. If you have teeth whitening trays, you can apply the gel to your teeth and then wear the trays for about half an hour. Also, having plenty of minerals in your diet (eating a healthy diet) may result in saliva with higher mineral content.
Wait at Least 1 Hour to Brush
The ADA recommends waiting an hour after eating to brush your teeth. Eating and drinking can temporarily soften enamel (i.e., acids reduce the microhardness of tooth enamel). If you brush too soon, while your enamel is softened, the brushing can eventually wear away your enamel when repeated over time. The minerals in your saliva need time to harden enamel after eating or drinking acidic or sugary beverages. (Note: Think of remi gel like saliva – but even more effective.) Since tooth bleaching has the same effect on teeth as drinking acidic beverages or eating a meal, we recommend waiting at least an hour after teeth whitening before brushing.
Avoid Extremely Hot or Cold Liquids
These are dangerous to your white smile because they can change the temperature of your teeth. This temperature change (hot and cold cycling) causes your teeth to expand and contract, allowing stains to penetrate the teeth. Avoid beverages at extreme temperatures, or drink them through a straw to minimize contact with your teeth. DON’T CHEW ON ICE!
Avoid Tobacco and Alcohol
Daily consumption of tobacco and alcohol can rapidly reverse the results of your teeth whitening. Many alcoholic beverages have tannins that can stain the teeth. The same goes for nicotine in tobacco. This is just one more good reason to quit or cut back. DON’T CHEW TOBACCO!
Avoid Deeply Colored Lipstick
Use smudge-proof or colorless lipstick because regular lipstick can stick to teeth, and deeply colored lipsticks can stain them. Pro Tip: Blot lipstick with a tissue after application.
Use Maintenance Products
Use Minerals Enamel Booster to seal in results and lockout stains, brush with Daily White instead of regular toothpaste, and use a Forever White™ Pen to touch up your smile as needed.
