Is It Ok to Eat a Lettuce the Day I Get my Teeth Whitened?
A good rule of thumb as to what foods and drinks to avoid for 24-48 hours immediately following tooth whitening is this: If you would drop or spill it on a white shirt and it would leave a stain, avoid it. Lettuce should be fine. Some commom items to avoid: coffee, tea, red wine, dark sodas, blueberries, curry, etc. If you must drink coffee or tea, do so through a straw or coffee stirrer.
