Maintenance Teeth Whitening Products

Over-the-counter teeth whitening products can be used to maintain the whitening effect you achieved from your major teeth whitening treatment. Although your major whitening treatment may have been a strong, over-the-counter product such as Aquafresh White Trays or Crest’s Advanced Seal Whitestrips, there are products of lesser strength which are great for maintenance use. The best we know of is Crest’s Daily Whitening Multicare Whitestrips, which are used for five minutes per day for forty-five minutes per day. A stronger but still mild product such as the Crest Whitestrips Classic may be used once every six to twelve months as a maintenance “boost.”

Maintaining After Using Teeth Whitening Products

You probably want to keep your teeth white after you go through a teeth whitening treatment, right? It may help to know exactly HOW to do this. While there are many different thoughts on what it takes to keep the teeth white (as well as many conflicting opinions), they all generally boil down to these three categories: keeping material out of the mouth which stains teeth, cleaning the teeth regularly, and using maintenance teeth whitening products. None of these three things are complicated or difficult to do, but they do take discipline and some time out of each day. Those who really want to keep their teeth white will, and others will simply find that their teeth become yellow over time.
