How To Keep Your Teeth White All The Time.
With the launch of the new Crest 3D Whitestrips range we now have a proven way to keep your teeth white all the time. So this is an ideal program to whiten your teeth, and then keep them white.
Initial Whitening Treatment (Month 1-2, Take a Pre Whitening Photograph)
1) Choose the teeth whitening product that is right for you, for example if you have heavily discoloured teeth that are yellow near the gum line, to half way down the tooth use Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects ‘Intense Whitening’. This will give you a maximum 20 day whitening period, although early results can be seen in a few days. If you have only slightly discoloured teeth then Crest 3D Whitestrips Vivid maybe more suitable as this is only a 10 day treatment. Alternatively if you have sensitive teeth then use Crest 3D Whitestrips Gentle Routine, here the treatment is only 5 minutes a day using a much lower strength of hydrogen peroxide.
2) During the teeth whitening process it is advised that you use a ‘whitening’ toothpaste. Part of the Crest 3D White range is Crest 3D Vivid White Toothpaste. This product in our opinion is quite simply the best whitening toothpaste available and you should brush your teeth twice a day for at least 2 minutes each time. You get a whopping 4.01 ounces per tube which can last up to 2 months! Using a whitening toothpaste daily prevents the build up of new surface stains. If you suffer from gingivitis, or suffer from greater levels of plaque or tartar build up, then use Crest Pro Health in conjunction with a whitening toothpaste. You can then use Crest 3D Vivid White in the morning and Crest Pro Health in the evening, or visa versa.
3) Don’t forget to floss, it is so important. Flossing helps reduce the amount of plaque and tarter build up in and around the teeth and gum line and it is vital in preventing gum disease later in life.
Mid Term Whitening (Month 3, Take a Post Whitening Photograph)
4) Compare your two photographs, by now you should have much whiter teeth than when you started. If your teeth have whitened to a level you desire thats great, so its now just a matter of how white you want them to go. If they have whitened, but you believe they will go whiter, simply repeat steps 1-3. If however you are satisfied then we recommend a monthly or bi monthly whitening program using Crest 3D Whitestrips Stain Shield. In conjunction with a whitening toothpaste, using Crest 3D Whitestrips Stain Shield will mean that you will probably only have to have a complete whitening treatment every two or three years. Stain Shield do exactly what they describe; a simple 5 minute a day whitening treatment which you can do once or twice per day, or several times a week, and each pack contains a full months supply.
5) Remember to Floss! It’s so important, we do only get one set of teeth and unlike like the rest of our body our teeth do not repair so we must look after them as everybody is living longer these days.
6) Visit your dentist regularly, if you have kept up the above process they should be very impressed.
Happy Whitening
