Long Term Care for Teeth Whitening

When you have taken the time and money to make a difference to your personal appearance it would only make sense to take good care of your investment.  If you bought a new care you would get a checkup for it regularly, right?  The same is true of this investment, but how do you keep your teeth white.  Obviously this was a problem the first time or you wouldn’t have spent the money to get your teeth whitened.  So how do you keep your teeth white?

If you can’t seem to get yourself away from drinks with a lot of caffeine or other discoloring chemicals then try to do so through a straw. 

Don’t go too long after eating without washing your teeth or rinsing your mouth with some type of anti-bacterial or chemical intended to keep your teeth white.  Most discolorations and stains of the teeth come from eating the wrong foods and drinking the wrong types of drinks.  Its okay to drink these products or eat these foods, just don’t let them sit on your teeth for a good amount of time.

Keep toothpaste in your bathroom that specializes in some type of whitening, regardless of the concentration of the whitening chemical.  By using this toothpaste you are keeping your teeth on the offensive against the staining and discoloring chemicals that reside in the foods and drinks you consume.  Keep them clean and you will most assuredly keep them white!

The straw will get the beverage
past your teeth so you don’t have to worry about the chemicals attacking your teeth.  Also, certain types of lip stick or food dyes will cause the teeth to be stained or discolored, stay away from them the best you can.

Remember to think of your newly whitened teeth as an investment.  How often do you like to pour oney into something only to abuse it the next day.  You don’t go buy a new car and then jump it off of a cliff or drive it for five years without an oil change, so why would you whiten your teeth and then not maintain them?

As always, before you attempt to self medicate or try a new health regimen or program we suggest you retain the services of a qualified health care professional.

 

Maintaining Teeth Whitening

You have just completed the reinvention process by performing teeth whitening that gives your face a new shine.  You have eliminated all your qualms related to giving that big toothy smile to a friend or business associate, but, what now?  It isn’t cost effective to
have teeth whitening done and then simply go and stain your teeth again, resulting in repeating the whole process of teeth whitening.  No, you need to take a few steps to ensure that your teeth will remain white for an extended period of time.

First, you need to make sure that you purchase toothpaste that specifically mentions teeth whitening.  These toothpaste providers won’t do the teeth whitening process completely, but they can maintain the teeth whitening that you’ve had done.  Don’t just go buy the cheap and tasty paste, but the stuff that specifically mentions teeth whitening.

Finally, a decent amount of time after consuming a potentially staining food or beverage you should rinse or brush your teeth.  This process, either mouth wash or brushing, removes the staining chemicals from the enamel on the teeth without allowing them to begin the staining process.  Don’t freak out if you can’t get to mouth wash or a toothbrush in a hurry, a little time won’t kill your teeth.

Teeth whitening is not a “one and done” process that completely eliminates the discoloration of the teeth.  After completing the teeth whitening process it is important to take good care, even better than before, of your teeth.  Who knows how much money you could save by taking proper care of your first teeth whitening.

 

Preparing for Teeth Whitening

If you are considering teeth whitening you should follow a few steps to make sure the process is given the best opportunity for success.  Some things can be done at home for personal improvement, but some are related to dental health history.  Before teeth whitening is performed you should consider the following:

?     Before teeth whitening begins you should have all cavities treated.  Untreated cavities can be irritated and aggravated by the chemicals used in teeth whitening.

?     Receding gums should be addressed before going through teeth whitening to ensure that roots are not exposed and harmed. 

?     Crowns and veneers make teeth whitening an impossible task; if you have either then you cannot go through the process of teeth whitening.

 

Next, don’t simply go back to what you did before your teeth whitening by consuming food and beverage that stains the teeth.  If you are a big drinker of tea and soda, try to do so through a straw to keep the stains away from your teeth.  If you are a lip-stick wearer you need to consider what you are wearing and how you wear it, don’t go with the bright and flashy colors that could potentially stain your teeth.

After this dental health history is considered you are one step closer to beginning the process of teeth whitening.  Next, you should consider a few steps to take care of at home before going to the dentist’s office or performing the teeth whitening at home.  Here are a
few things to consider:

?     Brushing regularly may seem to be a normal, everyday process, but it is ultra important to those considering teeth whitening.  Brush after every meal and make sure to take your time!

?     Floss between your teeth at least twice a day, if not after every meal, to keep food from building up and exposing the roots.  Receding gums are caused by the acids in foods that build up over time and brushing doesn’t get everything!

?     Use mouth wash to continue to fight bacteria and acids from building up and causing tooth decay or receding gums.  This may seem like overkill, but the use of several anti-bacterial products can help the process of teeth whitening.

Don’t fear the stains on your teeth anymore and consider the benefits of teeth whitening.  It doesn’t take much to do, though it does take the right steps after the actual process to continue to keep the teeth white.  Just follow the steps above and your teeth whitening experience will be a great one!

Purchasing Teeth Whitening Products

If you don’t have the time or money to go to a dentist’s office to whiten your teeth then you can purchase teeth whitening products from the local grocery or drug store.  Most of the products you can find at the store to whiten your teeth are available over the counter.  However, some products may require a prescription from the dentist meaning you will have to make at least one visit to the dentist’s office.

>     Teeth whitening toothpaste will gradually wear away the staining or discoloring liquids or foods from your teeth that will make a whiter smile.  Whereas teeth whitening procedures that use bleaches attack the teeth all at once, the use of teeth whitening toothpaste will attack regularly over time.
>     Teeth whitening applicators will use a molding to fit to your teeth and regularly attack your teeth with teeth whitening chemicals.  Non molding based teeth whitening applicators are much less expensive but may not have the effect of molding based teeth whitening applicators.

 

?     Bonding uses composite resin to fill in gaps in teeth or reshape and recolor teeth to improve your smile.  The resin is delicately placed by a dental health professional and then bonded to the teeth using a high-intensity light.

>     Teeth whitening gel is generally used the same as teeth whitening toothpaste but is much more powerful.  Usually an applicator is used to apply the gel to your teeth, much like a toothbrush but not exactly the same.  The gel applicator is generally designed especially for the gel being used.
>     Whitening strips are generally used twice a day for an extended period of time to be able to whiten the teeth with whitening chemicals.  The chemicals are pre- placed on the strips and then the strips are applied to your teeth for around 30 minutes at a time.

While teeth whitening kits bought from the store are effective and easily usable they are not as immediately effective as bleaching based teeth whitening.  The dentist’s that do teeth whitening are trained in what is effective for certain types of teeth and have access to more powerful equipment than you can find on your local grocery store’s shelves.  While it may cost more, it also gives you a little bit more.

Teeth Whitening Alternatives

Everybody would like to improve their smile in one way or another and teeth whitening seems to be a decent alternative.  However, if you want to have whiter teeth and don’t want to go through the hassles and financial strain of teeth whitening, what are the other alternatives? 

?     Veneers are tiny little strips of porcelain or plastic that cover the teeth to make them white and more pleasing to the eye.  With some people bleaching doesn’t solve the problem due to a more severe staining or discoloration.  There are two different types of veneers.

?     Porcelain veneers must be created in a dentist’s office through a series of visits where the dentist will make moldings of the patient’s teeth.  For around $1,000-$2,500 an individual can have whiter teeth for between 10 and 15 years.

?     Composite or direct veneers are created in a single visit to a dentist or other oral health professional.  The enamel is bonded to each tooth one at a time for around $250 per tooth and the composite veneers will last for somewhere between five and seven years.

?     The composite resin looks almost natural when placed next to the teeth and is sometimes used instead of silver fillings that are generally placed by dentists.  The composite resin is not a good choice for smokers because the smoke will cause it to be discolored.  Another negative is that the composite resin bonding costs significantly more than normal silver fillings, sometimes up to $600 per tooth.

Veneers and bonding are viable alternatives to the teeth whitening processes that are found in stores or in dentist’s offices.  If you are against the process of teeth whitening that requires patience and hard work the veneers and bonding are a decent option.  However, the process of bonding or getting veneers can be both painful and expensive.
