How Long Do Teeth Whitening Results Last?
Monday, September 13th, 2010
The amazing results that you can get from the Zoom! teeth whitening treatment can last one to two years with good oral hygiene and regular visits for professional cleaning. In just one office visit that takes about an hour, Dr. Sands can brighten your smile up to eight shades whiter.
Keeping Your Smile White
To keep your smile white after having the Zoom! teeth whitening treatment, you will want to:
- Brush your teeth at least twice a day
- Floss at least once a day, preferably at bedtime
- Have your teeth professionally cleaned twice a year
- Avoid drinks and foods that can stain your teeth
- Use an at-home teeth whitening kit for touch-ups
The home whitening kits come with trays that are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth. You can maintain your brilliant smile by using the at-home kit at your convenience. Some of Dr. Sands’ patients choose to have the Zoom! teeth whitening treatment more frequently than every year or every other year.
What to Avoid to Keep Your Teeth Whitening Results
To keep your teeth whitening results as long possible, you will want to avoid a few habits and substances that will dull your smile:
- Tobacco products
- Coffee
- Tea
- Red wine
- Cola drinks
