We often get asked how to maintain the colour of your teeth after they have been whitened, so here’s our handy tips…

1. See your dentist/ hygienist for professional cleaning at the recommended time interval (usually every 3-6mths)
2. If drinks have a high stain potential, use a straw
3. Remember to brush shortly after you have drinks that are highly staining. If you can’t, try to rinse with lots of water.
4. Avoid abrasive toothpastes which may wear the enamel, exposing more of the darker substructure in your tooth (the dentine)
5. Don’t smoke!

Finally, use a home whitening kit to give you a little boost occasionally!
