Professional teeth whitening is a fast, powerful way to get your dream white smile. It’s often the first cosmetic dental treatment we advise because it makes a huge difference without invading your smile.
Most patients are candidates for teeth whitening, and will greatly improve their smile with this solution.
However, newly whitened teeth are still susceptible to stains. To help your teeth stay as radiant as possible for as long as possible, follow these tips:
Diligent Dental Hygiene
Your first line of defense against tooth stains is your toothbrush (and floss)! Stick to a regular dental hygiene routine that includes brushing twice a day and flossing at least once a day. Use an antibacterial mouthwash as well to help kill off staining bacteria.
Keeping your teeth clean will also keep them white.

Careful Consumption
Certain foods and drinks more easily stain teeth than others. Some of the biggest culprits include:
- Coffee
- Dark tea
- Dark soda
- Red wine
- Berries
Try using a straw to drink staining liquids, as the straw helps keep them off your teeth. For food items, or when a straw isn’t an option, rinse your mouth with water after consuming. Then 30-60 minutes after eating, brush your teeth.

Kick the Tobacco Habits
Tobacco use rapidly yellows teeth. If you continue using tobacco after whitening your teeth, expect them to lose their radiance quickly. Quitting tobacco helps keep your teeth pristine, and it’s also best for your long-term health!
Dentist-Approved Over-Counter Maintenance
Store-bought whitening products are not nearly as effective as ones from the dentist. However, a whitening toothpaste or mouthwash can help keep surface stains away. Alone, they won’t whiten your teeth much, but they can help preserve a brighter smile for longer. Your dentist can provide recommendations for an effective product.
