Three Habits That Will Help You Maintain a Bright Smile After You Whiten Your Teeth

After you have been to your dentist to whiten your teeth, you will want to keep them looking bright and attractive for as long as possible. While the results of most procedures used to whiten your teeth will begin to fade over time, there are some things that you can do to keep your teeth whiter for longer. Keep the following tips in mind.

 

Be mindful of what you choose to eat and drink

As you may be aware, certain foods and drinks can stain your teeth (and may indeed be the reason why you needed to whiten your teeth in the first place). You will be more likely to maintain excellent results after you whiten your teeth if you cut down on your consumption of red wine, black teas and coffees. When you do indulge in these drinks, drinking through a straw can help to prevent regression after you whiten your teeth. It is also worth noting that you should always avoid tobacco products (whether smoked or chewed) if you want to maintain a bright smile after you whiten your teeth.

 

Practice good dental hygiene

One of the key things that you need to do to preserve good results after you whiten your teeth is to be consistent and thorough when it comes to dental hygiene. In particular, you should brush your teeth at least twice a day, and make an effort to brush them after eating or drinking anything that might stain your teeth. Many whitening toothpastes can also help you to preserve a bright, attractive smile after you whiten your teeth.

 

Have your teeth cleaned on a regular basis

Although you should see your dentist every six months no matter how good you think your dental health might be, if you want to maintain the look you have achieved after you whiten your teeth then you should also ask for a professional cleaning at each appointment. In addition to helping you keep your teeth looking bright and white, a professional cleaning helps to prevent a buildup of plaque or the development of tooth decay.
