HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR SMILE AFTER TEETH WHITENING IN IVANHOE

After your teeth whitening procedure, avoid:

  • Smoking
  • Drinking coffee, tea, soft drink, and red wine
  • Eating brightly coloured foods like beetroot and berries
  • Using mouthwash

All of these can reverse the effects of the whitening and further stain your teeth. Also make sure to stay on top of a healthy oral care routine.

SIDE EFFECTS OF TEETH WHITENING

If you’ve been worried about possible side effects after your teeth whitening session in Ivanhoe, rest assured that when applied correctly, side effects are minimal. You may experience increased tooth sensitivity which can last a day or two. Gum irritation can also arise if the whitening agent comes in contact with your gums. Contact our Prodental Melbourne practice if you have any concerns.
