HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR WHITE TEETH AFTER WHITENING?

By: Smileway Dental

Having white teeth makes you look healthier and attractive when smiling. It also boosts up self confidence. There are two popular treatments here in Smileway which can do so, namely dental veneers and teeth whitening. This article will focus more on the after care of teeth whitening.

1. Use home kit whitening

This whitening process uses lower-strength whitening gel over several weeks. This results in a more permanent color change due to deeper penetration of gel into the teeth. It can be used as a maintenance product after teeth whitening in the dental clinic.

2. Use whitening toothpaste

Over-the-counter toothpastes help remove some surface stains. Many of these products contain mild abrasives, chemicals, or polishing agents. Unlike whitening gels, they cannot change the natural color of teeth. Therefore, whitening has to be done first, then whitening toothpaste as daily maintenance.

3. Avoid stain food and drinks especially for the first week

It’s so important to try to avoid staining teeth in the first place, especially after whitening. If you take care with foods and drinks that discolor teeth, the results of whitening may last up to one year.

4. Do not smoke

Smoking is one of the worst offenders when it comes to staining teeth. The longer you smoke, the more stubborn the stains become. Smoking also causes bad breath and gum disease.

5. Don’t Forget Daily Maintenance

To help maintain white teeth brush at least twice daily. Even better, brush after every meal and snack. Brushing helps prevent stains and yellow teeth, especially at the gum line. We also need to use floss daily and adjunctively antiseptic mouthwash.

These are some of the steps you can take to have a stronger and healthier tooth. After all, we all want to make sure we are problem free and we can enjoy our life and food for many years. In Smileway Dental Clinic Setapak and Smileway Dental Clinic USJ we take care of your smile because we believe in “Creating Smiles That Matters” in your life. Take care everyone

The response from time of my asking for an appointment (though last minute) was handled well. Staff was ensuring that if I couldn’t make the 5pm appointed time then she offered to reschedule. So I did for the next day. Dr Edwin was super nice and gave options to see that my swollen due to infection gum was treated with care. I only visit this clinic because of its professionalism. Cheers guys and keep up the great job ! Thanks.

People with dental phobia like me have an awareness that the fear is totally irrational, but with extensive experience in the field of dentistry, Dr Lisa provides efficient and compassionate patient care. I just had my tooth extraction this morning and it was painless…. Furthermore Dr Lisa are very attentive and explain things very thoroughly without pushing for unnecessary treatment. Thank you so much Dr Lisa 🙏

Got a bridge and implant done by Dr Jon this year. Still holding up, looking forward to next and hopefully final treatment for missing tooth. Flexible payment terms and polite staff. Give them a try if you haven’t.

Having great experience so far. The doctor are very attentive and explain things very thoroughly without pushing for unncesssary treatment. The clinic is well lit and very clean👍👍. It is on the first and second so it will be a bit hard if you have a bad leg.
