What should I avoid after teeth whitening?
For 48 hours after whitening, avoid staining foods and drinks like coffee, tea, red wine, berries, and tomato sauce. Also avoid tobacco products. Your teeth are more porous immediately after treatment and more susceptible to staining. Following this "white diet" helps maximize and extend your results.
