Best Ways to Keep Your Teeth White
It’s important to practice good oral hygiene after you undergo professional teeth whitening. The best way to do that is by brushing your teeth twice daily and flossing once a day. Also, be sure to visit our dentist every six months for routine preventive care.
Plaque and tartar may discolor your teeth over time, which is why your teeth may look whiter after a routine teeth cleaning. You want to avoid dark-colored foods and drinks, as well as those that are highly acidic. The acidity eats away at tooth enamel, revealing the pale-yellow dentin beneath.
To maintain your white teeth, it is vital to limit or avoid consuming dark foods and drinks because these can leave lasting stains. For example, coffee, tea, soft drinks, blueberries, and beets can all stain your teeth.
