After teeth whitening –
keeping your smile bright
Dear patient, we are delighted that you chose to have your teeth whitened with us, and congratulations on your bright new smile. So that your teeth stay white and healthy for as long as possible, here is some important guidance.
Your dentist
Treated on
Shade
48 h
For the first 48 hours your enamel absorbs colour pigments especially easily and your teeth are temporarily more sensitive. What you do in these two days largely decides your result.
Please avoid
- Coffee, black and green tea
- Cola and other coloured soft drinks
- Red wine and dark fruit juices
- Soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, tomato sauce, ketchup
- Curry, mustard, paprika powder
- Beetroot, spinach, blueberries
- Chocolate, brightly coloured sweets
- Nicotine and smoking
- Coloured toothpastes or mouthwashes
Good choices
- Water
- Milk, plain yoghurt
- White bread, white rice
- Peeled apples, bananas
- Pasta without sauce
- Potatoes
Caring for your teeth right now
Use a mild, white toothpaste with no coloured stripes.
If your teeth feel sensitive, we recommend a toothpaste for sensitive teeth.
Avoid strongly acidic foods such as citrus fruit to protect your enamel. On request we are happy to apply a fluoride gel or advise you on suitable products.

Making your result last
How long your whitening result lasts depends on your individual circumstances and your lifestyle. With the right care you can do a great deal to preserve it.
Long-term care
- Professional cleaning 2–3 times a year to remove plaque and surface staining.
- Cut back on staining food and drink, especially if you consume it often.
- Avoid smoking – nicotine is one of the strongest staining agents there is.
- Good oral hygiene: brushing twice daily, floss and, where useful, interdental brushes.
- Use whitening toothpaste no more than once or twice a week – it should polish the surface, not wear it away.
Top-up treatment
If the shade darkens slightly over time, whitening can simply be repeated.
Just ask us – we will advise you individually on top-up treatments. If you have any questions or concerns, we are always here for you in person.
Your next step
Book your next professional cleaning – it is the most effective protection for your result. If anything about the shape or position of individual teeth bothers you, tell us: in a short conversation we can show you what else is possible.
We look forward to seeing you again.
