Our Agoura Hills cosmetic dentist uses the most advanced teeth whitening systems to erase stains from your teeth. Peroxide-based whitening agents reach deep into the tooth’s structure to break up the stains into smaller molecules. After a professional whitening treatment, your teeth could look ten or more shades lighter. Once your teeth have been whitened, you will need to take steps to keep them that way.
Teeth tend to be porous immediately after a whitening treatment, which means that they could be more susceptible to staining for a few days. Avoid eating or drinking anything that could stain your teeth, including cola, coffee, tea, wine, berries, and tomato sauces. Avoid smoking and chewing tobacco, as well. If you do indulge in a staining drink, use a straw to bypass your teeth. Rinse your mouth with water to dilute the stain-causing dyes.
Brush using desensitizing toothpaste to combat any post-whitening sensitivity. You need to brush at least twice a day. Once a day, be sure to floss or use an interdental cleaner to remove buildup between your teeth. Whitening can make a big difference in your smile, but your teeth may need occasional touch-ups to keep them their whitest.
