Teeth Whitening Aftercare

The White Diet

After a teeth whitening treatment, the pores of your enamel are open and this makes them extra vulnerable to any stains which can reverse a lot of the whitening benefit from your treatment. Follow the White Diet for a minimum of 24 hours after a teeth whitening treatment. Once the pores close, which usually happens within 24-48 hours after the procedure, you can resume your normal habits. An easy rule to remember is anything that would stain white fabric; Avoid it!


Taking care of what you eat will keep your smile whiter for longer. Additionally, so will normal oral care habits such as brushing, flossing and using oral mouthwash. We list several foods and beverages you should try to avoid during this 24 hour period.

Additional Information

cold and hot drink

Avoid Extremely Hot or Cold Liquids

These are dangerous to your white smile because they change the temperature of your teeth. This temperature change (hot and cold cycling) causes teeth to expand and contract, allowing stains to penetrate your teeth. Try cutting down on these types of drinks (including coffee and tea) or try drinking them with a straw to reduce the amount of time they are in contact with your teeth.

citrus fruit

Avoid Foods and Drinks that are Acidic

Acidic foods and beverages open up the pores of the tooth enamel allowing stains to more easily penetrate your teeth. Use a straw to help minimize the contact of these substances with your teeth.

alcohol and a cigarette

Cut Back on Drinking and Smoking

Frequent consumption of alcoholic drinks and heavy smoking can reverse the effects of teeth whitening. Many alcoholic drinks such as wine have tannins that can stain the teeth. The same goes for the nicotine in tobacco. If you cannot quit drinking and smoking, at least try and reduce the frequency. Alcohol also reduces your resolve to avoid food that may stain your teeth.

lipstick

Use Smudge-Proof Lipstick

Use smudge-proof lipstick to keep lipstick from getting on your teeth because regular lipstick can stain teeth. Also, avoid tinted lip balm.

For long-lasting results, be sure to follow The White Diet during and after every teeth whitening even treatment with a home touch up kit.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long does a treatment take?

    Our teeth whitening procedure generally takes 1 hour to 1.5 hours. This time consist of client consultation, explanation of the process and of course, doing the procedure!



    The procedure consists of three 20 minute cycles. Each cycle involves, cleaning of your teeth and reapplication of the teeth whitening agent (6% hydrogen peroxide). This is just an overview, please reach out if you would like us to explain the process in detail!

  • What results can be expected?

    This depends on each individual and the extent of discolouration, but generally 5-14 shades lighter can be achieved. The more stained your teeth, the more dramatic the result will be. Teeth whitening whether done by a dentist or another technician will not whiten your tooth enamel, the process will bleach the stains on the surface of your teeth.


    The results are also relevant to how regularly you have a teeth whitening procedure or use home whitening treatments. Where whitening is done every 6-12 months it is considered a maintenance procedure and results will be less dramatic.

  • Should teeth whitening be done by a dentist?

    Teeth whitening is purely cosmetic and non-dental. The products we use are gentler and just as effective as those used by the dentist. All our products are Australian compliant and produced to the highest standards. Teeth whitening, no matter who does it, bleaches stains from the surface of the teeth.

  • Is teeth whitening safe?

    We offer the latest whitening gel approved for use in Australia. Our gel is gentle and safe, problems are extremely rare. Teeth Whitening is safe for crowns and veneers although these will not lighten as much as natural teeth.

  • Is teeth whitening suitable for everyone?

    Teeth whitening is a treatment most people want and can have, however, it is not 

    recommended for children under 16 years of age or for women who are pregnant or 

    breastfeeding. Do not have a teeth whitening treatment if you have gum disease or are 

    requiring dental work

  • How long will a teeth whitening treatment last?

    Teeth will maintain their fresh new appearance for around one year. Re-staining depends largely on diet and lifestyle. Smoking, coffee, tea, fruit juice, sodas, and all staining foods and beverages will eventually re-stain the surface of your teeth.
