Limit strongly colored foods and drinks
Avoid coffee, tea, tobacco, and other strongly colored foods or beverages during the first 24 to 48 hours after treatment
Managing sensitivity
If sensitivity occurs following whitening, use a toothpaste, gel, or other sensitivity-relief product as recommended by the doctor
Follow the prescribed treatment schedule
Do not extend the application time or increase the concentration of the whitening agent on your own, as doing so may affect the tooth enamel
Warranty and follow-up visits
Over time, the color of the teeth may darken again due to food, beverages, tobacco use, oral hygiene habits, and the natural process of aging. For this reason, teeth whitening is not a treatment that can be guaranteed to produce permanent results.
Patients are advised to return for follow-up visits as instructed, so that the doctor can check the color of the teeth, assess any sensitivity, and advise on the appropriate timing for repeating the whitening treatment if needed. Whitening treatment should not be repeated on one’s own without the doctor’s guidance.
