You have gone through a lot to make your teeth white and you don’t want to waste your efforts. Some foods and drinks might cause staining and the whiteness could start disappearing in as little as one month after treatment.

In order to avoid this issue and maintain your white smile for one year or more, here are some tips that will definitely help you.

1 – Avoid drinking coffee and tea directly from the cup. Instead, use a straw so that the liquid doesn’t stain your front teeth.

2 – Consume crunchy vegetables and fruits, as chewing scrubs the surface of your teeth and removes stains.

3 – Brush and rinse your teeth as soon as you consume a staining beverage or food.

4 – Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss once at least to kill the bacteria.

5 – Use baking soda-based whitening toothpaste once or twice a week only to remove surface stains.

6 – We all know that smoking is not healthy and maintaining your white smile is another reason to stop it.

7 – Visit your dentist regularly and provide your teeth with the right amount of care. A visit every six months or so is necessary.

8 – Finally, although you might think that the way of achieving this sparkling white smile is long-lasting, you could also need touch-ups from time to time.
