Everyone's teeth have a protective layer called the acquired pellicle. This layer contains the surface dental stains and is removed during a regular dental cleaning or the whitening process. It takes twelve to twenty-four hours for the barrier to fully develop again. To maximize the whitening, we ask that you do not consume dark liquids or foods (1.e. coffee, tea, dark soft rinks, r red wine). Please refrain from wearing coloured lipstick in order to minimize shade relapse. N addition, we recommend that you avoid any "yellow" foods such as white wines and potato chips. If post-operative sensitivity occurs, please use Advil or Tylenol, or what you would normally use for a headache. Sensitivity may occur following any dental treatment. Smoking is not permitted for the first 48 hours. The teeth will darken if the patient smokes within the first 48 hrs. Remember that you must not use any coloured toothpastes or gels For the first 48 hours. In addition, do not use any coloured mouthwash or home fluoride treatments. If your daily home care involves the use of Perio Rx or any Chlorahexidine treatment, please wait 48 hours before continuing the usage of this product. |
