Your Diet

The quality of your diet will also play a fundamental role. Instead of focusing on the negative, let us focus on what really matters:

• Limit sugar – keep it under 30 grams a day, because sugar tends to cause cavities and contributes to surface stains and discoloration
• Incorporate detergent foods – because they increase saliva production and help to clean your teeth. Ideal examples are carrots, apples, popcorn and celery
• Eat nutrient-dense foods – because they allow you to get the nutrition you need to make your body function properly and keep your teeth at their best state. Such foods include meat, eggs, milk, yogurt, fruits and leafy greens

You should avoid the excessive consumption of coffee, because it tends to create stains on the surface of your teeth. The same goes for wine and grape juice. They have the same tendency.

You can enjoy them once in a while, of course, just do not make their consumption a habit.

Your Habits

Your lifestyle choices also play a huge role in the way your teeth look, and of course, they will also dictate how long your teeth whitening results will last.

Here you have the most important habits to follow:

• Stop smoking – because it is one of the most damaging habits for your body. In addition to damaging your lungs and several other organs, it also causes tooth decay and discoloration. Furthermore, it also causes foul breath. Enough reasons to eliminate it from your life.
• Brush your teeth properly – because it is the main way to clean your teeth, remove residues and brush off stains. You should do it every time after a meal. Do it in circular motions and pay attention to every zone of your mouth
• Use tooth floss – after brushing your teeth to ensure that they are free of food residues. It only takes a couple of minutes and this simple habit will allow you to keep your teeth white and shining for more time
• Avoid mouth breathing – because it contributes to the formation of plaque. Breathe properly through your nose because it will allow you to stop your teeth from becoming filters of dirt. An excellent way to practice it is with meditation, just focus on breathing through your nose
