Eat after teeth whitening

It is recommended that you pay attention to what you eat and drink for a few days following the professional teeth whitening process that you have had at the specialist dentist in the dental clinic. In this period, it is emphasized that the first 48 hours are more important. Due to the sensitivity of the dentin layer in teeth that become more sensitive after teeth whitening, we need to pay attention to food and beverages. Especially for sensitive teeth, we should avoid icy and hot drinks. Care should be taken to ensure the drinks are at the appropriate temperature, especially in the first few days.

What is the White Diet?

A white diet involves paying attention to food and drinks after teeth whitening. It is crucial to avoid colored and acidic beverages such as colored foods, cola, coffee, tea, and red wine, which will discolor our teeth. In this white diet process, we must show the sensitivity necessary to preserve our teeth’ whiteness for a long time.
