How to Get Longer-Lasting Teeth Whitening Results?

While you are having your teeth whitened in the dental chair a little bit of dehydration takes place and that makes the tooth look whiter. Once you resume normal activites there will be a rebound in the acquired shade. How long that shade last is directly related with your diet and home care . Avoiding staining foods and smoking during the first week helps maintain the color as well as permanent use of an electric toothbrush.

Bleaching strips either given by your dentist or purchased over the counter are a great and easy option for color maintenance

You do not mention your age or the color of your teeth before you had your in office teeth whitening procedure.. It may take a few times with the whitening system and the  light or laser before the optimal results show.  if you are older or your teeth were not white to begin with, it may take more than a few times to bring the color up to the results you want. Also you need to use take home whitening along with this for the best resilts.  I would be careful after the whiteing with red wine, tea, coffee and other stain causing drinks, but am assured honey is not the problem. Go back and check with your dentist what product he used and tell him you are unhappy wtih your results!
