Take-Home Whitening Tips
If you experience sensitivity, start by wearing your custom trays with sensitivity gel for 2–4 hours to relieve discomfort. Once sensitivity is under control, begin whitening with the recommended 15% or 35% gel. To maintain your results, avoid staining foods and drinks like coffee, red wine, berries, and tomato-based sauces for 48 hours, and use a straw to minimize contact with any beverages. Refrain from smoking or using tobacco, as it can quickly discolor your newly whitened smile.
