Procedure During the Appointment
You will be seated upright in our cosmetic treatment chair, the below procedure will be discussed as well as general information on how teeth whitening works. We will also address any additional questions or concerns you may have.
Before commencing the treatment we will compare your teeth to a teeth shade set and determine your current shade of teeth. This will be noted so we can assess the results at the end of the procedure. Through this treatment we generally expect your teeth to become 5-14 shades lighter.
You will then lay flat on our cosmetic treatment chair, a bib will be placed on your chest/neck area protecting your clothing from any possible discolouration due to the teeth whitening treatment.
We will then use a silicone cheek retractor. This will ensure your mouth remains open, protecting your lips from exposure to the 6% hydrogen peroxide gel.

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
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.
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.
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.
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.
