White diet: how to maintain teeth whitening results?

In some diets, products are selected not by calorie content or composition, but by color. For example, in dentistry there is a so-called white diet after teeth whitening, in which restrictions apply specifically to the color of the foods and drinks consumed. It is necessary to consolidate the results of teeth whitening and maintain the achieved enamel color. This diet is also used for home whitening, and in this case, “colored” foods will have to be avoided during the entire period of whitening procedures and the first weeks after their completion.

Duration of following the white diet

The minimum total duration of a white or colorless diet is about 5 days.
But for successful restoration of tooth enamel and a long-term whitening effect, you need to limit yourself for more than a week. Undoubtedly, it is difficult to adjust and give up your favorite tea or coffee for a month. The habit of drinking tonic drinks is too ingrained in the lives of many. Additionally, you will have to strictly avoid eating too hot or cold food, which is also not easy. Teeth enamel that is thinned after whitening may not withstand temperature changes. The consolation will be to allow a slight relaxation towards the middle of the white diet.

The most difficult are usually the first three days, when it is necessary to abstain from everything prohibited by the white diet. It is advisable to hold out longer, but if you are completely unbearable, then on the fourth day you can drink some warm tea or coffee through a straw. The drink should not be brewed strongly. After such deviations from the rules, you will have to brush your teeth immediately. The allowances apply to the color of the food, but not to its temperature. Hot soup or water from the refrigerator will only do harm.

Will a white diet help without prior bleaching?

There is no point in giving up coloring products without first lightening the units in the hope of getting a Hollywood smile. Untreated enamel is smooth. The pores on its surface are very small. Therefore, the penetration of pigments into the deep enamel layers is excluded.

Even if a person eats blueberries and his teeth become stained, he can return them to their original color by using regular toothpaste and a brush once or twice. If he eats the berries after bleaching, the gray units will “delight” him for a very long time, and all the dentist’s efforts will come to naught.

Therefore, if you want to improve the appearance of your smile, first undergo at-home or in-office treatment, and only then follow a clear diet. Separately, this nutritional system cannot affect the whiteness of teeth in any way.

What can you eat on a white diet after bleaching?

After a teeth whitening procedure, it is recommended to eat foods high in fluoride, calcium, and vitamins C, A, and E. This will not only have a positive effect on tooth enamel, but also on the state of the immune system as a whole.

TOP 10 food groups that can be consumed while following a white diet:

1. Dairy products without dyes: cottage cheese, milk, yogurt, butter, hard cheese, curd mass.
2. Fish and various seafood: sea and ocean fish, squid, scallops, shrimp, mussels are especially useful. Always read the ingredients to ensure that products do not contain dyes.
3. Fruits: pears, green baked apples, bananas. It is important that the fruits are non-acidic and do not irritate the enamel;
4. Poultry (turkey, chicken, duck), as well as soy products.
5. Bakery and pasta products.
6. Cauliflower, white, Brussels sprouts.
7. Egg whites and avocados are healthy foods for a transparent diet and overall health.
8. Potatoes, zucchini.
9. Porridge: rice, semolina, pearl barley.
10. Steamed asparagus and celery.

Teeth whitening in Smolensk at the Innovastom clinic

Each client of the Innovastom clinic receives a consultation after the procedure, as well as a list of foods that are not recommended to be consumed during the “white diet”.

In our clinic you can undergo a safe teeth whitening procedure with an effect of up to 2 years. INNOVASTOM uses the Beyond Polus lamp for teeth whitening. This method is one of the most effective and modern, at the same time one of the safest, since the integrity of the enamel and dental tissues is preserved.

What should you give up?

Prohibited foods include those that have a bright, rich color, a sour or pungent taste, and a fairly rough, hard texture.

During the white diet, you must give up:

• coffee, cocoa, chicory and any other caffeine-containing drinks;
• any type of tea;
• colored soft drinks and carbonated drinks (juices, fruit drinks, soda);
• colored drinks containing alcohol (wine, liqueurs, cocktails);
• sweets (chocolate, cakes, candies, cookies);
• flour products containing sugar and colorful ingredients (filling, topping, glaze);
• egg yolk;
• sauces (soy, tomato, mustard, etc.);
• vinegar (including wine and balsamic);
• marinades and anything pickled, even meat;
• preparations, except salt;
• brightly colored vegetables (carrots, tomatoes, pumpkin, beets);
• any kind of greenery;
• products containing acid (fermented milk products can be eaten a couple of days after bleaching);
• fruits and berries of bright color (strawberries, cherries, currants, blueberries);
• citrus fruits;
• jam and jam;
• all products that contain dye.

Prohibitions

We talked about foods that should be included in your daily diet after teeth whitening. Now we list those that you need to avoid for the next few weeks:

• Coffee (especially instant). Includes coarse dyes that quickly penetrate into the deep layers of enamel. In terms of whitening teeth, it is more aggressive than tobacco smoke. With its frequent use, an unsightly yellow coating forms. It is very difficult to remove it.
• Green/black tea. Even beneficial herbal formulations are prohibited. If the question “why” arises, you should remember the color of the cup after it has been sitting with the drink for a while.
• Sauces. You can’t eat tomato, soy, or adjika. They include different dyes. Even if the product is prepared with your own hands, it is still undesirable to consume it during a white diet.
• Red wine. A source of chromogens and tannin, which have coloring properties.
• Carbonated drinks, juices. As a rule, they have a fairly intense color that can ruin even the most charming smile. Plus, they contain a lot of sugar, which has a pronounced destructive effect on enamel that has been treated with hydrogen peroxide.
• Berries. Despite their pleasant taste and health benefits, you should forget about them in the first few weeks after whitening. Otherwise, the teeth will turn black, blue or red.
• Sweets, lollipops. They always contain a lot of dyes. It is also forbidden to eat chocolate.

If a person refuses the white diet, nothing bad will happen to him. This will not cause any serious damage to your teeth. But the beautiful white color will disappear, as will the sparkling enamel effect. Therefore, it is still necessary to observe dietary restrictions.

General recommendations

If you follow a special nutrition program, the whitening results will last for a long time. After two weeks, tooth sensitivity will become much less, and the restrictions can be lifted. With proper care, your smile will remain snow-white for about two years.

The disadvantage of having to follow a white diet is that it is very difficult for many to adhere to a strict nutritional menu. Eliminating your favorite foods from your diet can make things more difficult.

You don’t need to think that if you follow a diet, it will be bland and tasteless. Everyone can prepare original, delicious dishes for themselves, without harm to tooth enamel and health in general.

• The diet can be changed or combined based on your taste preferences.
• After a few days of strict restrictions, you can add green tea to the menu.
• It is better to use vegetable oil as a salad dressing. This is beneficial not only for tooth enamel, but also for the entire digestion.
• To minimize the contact of drinks with teeth, it is recommended to drink them only through a straw.

Consumer Reviews

Altamira about Asepta mouthwash (otzovik.com):

“I rarely use mouthwashes because I don’t see any particular need for them. But recently I encountered the problem of gum inflammation; they hurt terribly and caused discomfort not only when eating, but also while sleeping. At the dentist’s appointment, the doctor advised me to use Asepta mouth rinse, as it not only reduces inflammation, but also protects the gums from bleeding, and also prevents the occurrence of caries.

Having bought this mouthwash at the pharmacy and tried it several times, I was amazed. It really reduced gum inflammation and also left the mouth pleasantly fresh.

The packaging of this product is very convenient, made of transparent blue plastic, so you can see how much product is left. I was also pleasantly surprised that the kit includes a measuring cap; it fits onto the lid and won’t get lost; it’s convenient to use to measure the required dosage.

The consistency of the product is liquid and transparent, and has a slight menthol aroma. The taste of the rinse is not as strong as some, and the mouth does not itch after using it. I can’t say anything about protection against caries, since I have been using this product for only a short time. Nevertheless, it provides excellent protection to the gums, since after several uses the gums stopped bleeding and hurting.

If you are experiencing gum problems, then definitely give it a try.”

Mammary about Asept toothpaste (irecommend.ru):

“My husband was prescribed Asepta toothpaste by his dentist for gingivitis (in combination with other treatment). At first, I advised him to take not Asepta, but Parodontax, for its richer herbal composition. But he bought Asepta, and when I tried it myself, I was pleasantly surprised by the cleaning quality of this paste.

"Asepta" is a therapeutic and prophylactic toothpaste from JSC "Vertex", positioned as effective for gingivitis and periodontitis. In a laminated tube 75 ml. Cost 136 rubles. The paste has a light aroma of herbs and menthol, light green color, and a fairly thick consistency. I’ve read complaints about separation into liquid and solid components, but I haven’t observed this myself (the paste was bought at a pharmacy, with a normal expiration date). In addition, the paste foams well, no matter what they say about it, I really liked this paste.

This paste does not contain lauryl/laureth sulfate, like most common toothpastes. Among the useful components, one can note extracts of sage, calendula and St. John's wort, as well as papain. Papain is a plant enzyme that effectively brightens tooth enamel, commonly used in the food industry.

What I like most is the feeling of cleanliness in my mouth after brushing. It is somewhat different from the sensations that previous toothpastes left. And whitening is also present, and coupled with the prevention of gum disease, it’s just wonderful!

In general, I increasingly like Vertex products (besides this paste, I use several other products from this company, for example, the wonderful intimate gel Ginocomfort-gel from Vertex, the inexpensive and effective antibiotic Azithromycin Vertex, the regenerating ointment Dexpanthenol Vertex).”

Key benefits of a transparent diet:

• Allows you to preserve the results of home and office whitening for a long time;
• There is a chance that you can kill two birds with one stone in this way: reduce weight and preserve the newly acquired snow-white color of the enamel;
• During the diet, you will have to eat more natural foods, which will also have a positive effect on your well-being.

The disadvantages of the white diet are as follows:

• You will have to pay more attention to what you eat and select foods more carefully. This requires willpower and patience.
• It is more difficult to make a balanced diet; there may be a shortage of useful elements, so it is important to discuss your diet with a specialist.

Otherwise, the white diet is a healthy and effective measure. And if you follow it correctly, you can not only maintain your smile, but also improve the general condition of the body, although, of course, the main attention should be focused on the teeth.

Additional measures to help maintain whiteness

A clear diet is a very effective way to prolong the effects of any whitening procedure, but it is not enough on its own.

Here are some helpful tips to help you maintain a beautiful smile for as long as possible:

• Be sure to use dental floss to clean the space between your teeth. A toothbrush is ineffective here, and stuck food promotes the growth of bacteria, the appearance of caries and tartar.
• Extend your brushing routine by three to five minutes. Use a quality toothpaste and mouthwash that contains fluoride.
• Women who use lipstick and lip gloss are advised to discard them after the procedure.

If you follow all the recommendations and use the right products after teeth whitening, the results of the procedure can last up to two years. This will not only save money on repeated whitening, but will also preserve the health of the teeth, since any lightening, even a little, injures the enamel, making it more porous and sensitive. With careful care, your teeth will be able to recover well before the next session.

Remember about hygiene procedures

Not only after teeth whitening, but you should always be careful about cleaning your mouth.

Experts recommend:

• Brush your teeth vigorously at least twice a day for three to five minutes. The brush should have medium hardness. If you eat food from the prohibited list, you must clean your mouth immediately after eating.
• Use mouthwash after every meal and brushing your teeth. It is better to give preference to toothpaste and rinse with a high fluoride content.
• Use dental floss to clean between teeth. A toothbrush is useless in these areas, and leftover food can cause tooth decay and tartar.
• Avoid using lipstick and liquid lip gloss for two to three days after the procedure.

General recommendations from experts

General recommendations that must be followed after undergoing a teeth whitening procedure:

• You should avoid using toothpaste that contains a large amount of acid.
• After eating, you need to brush your teeth, even without using toothpaste.
• It is necessary to ensure that plaque does not form on the teeth, so they should be brushed with special care.
• To prevent food particles from remaining between your teeth, you need to use dental floss.
• It is good to use a fluoride balm to rinse your mouth.
• You should choose a lipstick that is not bright, but one that does not leave marks on your teeth.
• At least for 24 hours after the teeth whitening procedure, you should give up cigarettes. The resins contained in tobacco smoke penetrate fragile enamel and quickly change its color.

Bad habits

Bad habits affect not only the internal state of the human body, but also its external aesthetic appearance.

• Smoking harms even healthy teeth and gums, not to mention irritated teeth after a whitening procedure. In addition, nicotine and tobacco tars cause the enamel to rapidly darken.
• Alcoholic drinks are often also classified as coloring drinks, and strong drinks also act as an irritant.

The conclusion is simple: do not smoke and drink most alcohol, such as red wine, liqueurs, and carbonated cocktails with dyes. Drinks at the end of the diet can be consumed carefully and through a straw, smoking, if it is not possible to refuse, is possible in mouth guards.

Flaws

No matter how many positive aspects of losing weight on white products there are, there are also some disadvantages that you need to constantly remember:

• Problems with the stomach and intestines are possible, for example, bloating, flatulence, etc.
• Insufficient supply of nutrients, nutrients, vitamins and minerals.
• Excessive intake of calcium can provoke increased deposition of toxins and impaired protein absorption.
• If you have gastritis or stomach ulcers, you will have to abandon this diet.

You can lose weight in a variety of ways. Nutritionists and doctors have come up with an incredible number of methods, among which white is one of the most optimal options. If you like light-colored foods, this diet is best for you.

Who is contraindicated from following the white diet?

It is strictly not recommended to follow a white diet after teeth whitening for people who have individual intolerances or allergic reactions to foods included in the diet menu.

It should also not be practiced by children, pregnant and lactating women, or the elderly.

If the patient has problems with the digestive system, it is better to consult with a qualified specialist about following a white diet.

People with chronic diseases should be careful when using the diet.

Consequences of not following a diet after teeth whitening

Nothing dangerous or catastrophic will happen if you don’t follow the white diet, however, the effect of teeth whitening will no longer be the most ideal, which is not good news.

• Firstly, a thin pigment deposit due to coloring foods and bad habits will turn the enamel color dark.
• Secondly, if the principles of the diet are violated, the very shine and sparkle of the enamel will disappear, for which many patients love whitening procedures.
• Thirdly, the patient himself will see the difference in his teeth, and he will be offended for his momentary weakness and inattention, which ruined his aesthetic, snow-white smile. There is also a risk of tooth decay or inflammatory gum disease.

Professional teeth whitening can be not only a way to improve your appearance, but also the beginning of a new lifestyle. Following a white or transparent diet and giving up bad habits will have a positive effect on the health of the entire body.

Pros and cons of the white diet

Pros of the white milk diet:

• Thanks to the diet, you can maintain the results obtained during the teeth whitening procedure for a long time.
• During the diet, fat deposits will disappear, as fatty foods are removed from the menu.
• The products that a person consumes during a diet meet the principles of proper nutrition. They do not contain sugar, acid, harmful chemical additives or dyes.

Cons of the dairy diet:

• Not everyone can withstand the diet; failures are possible on it.
• Since some foods are excluded from the menu during the diet, the body may lack a number of nutrients.

Why should you follow a white diet for your teeth?

The smile whitening procedure somehow negatively affects the integrity of the teeth. This is not at all dangerous if you follow all the dentist’s recommendations after the procedure. For several weeks, patients should adhere to a specialized diet, which involves avoiding harsh foods that can color the smile in an undesirable color. In addition, recommendations include regular high-quality cleaning at home, rinsing after breakfast, lunch and dinner.

In the process of exposure to professional cleaning compounds, tooth enamel becomes thinner and becomes vulnerable. Whenever you consume the wrong food, your teeth, like a sponge, absorb the color, nullifying the results of the procedure. During the diet, the temperature, texture and taste of food are regulated so as not only not to spoil the result, but also to consolidate it for a long time. And the main advantage of the diet is that the food does not cause any discomfort or pain while eating it.

Sample diet menu

Reviews and results

Having examined the reviews about the white diet, we can conclude that this diet is suitable for almost everyone, except those who have digestive problems, allergies to dairy products, problems with protein absorption and calcium oversaturation. However, you should not make this diet your lifestyle, since it cannot be called balanced.

Inna: Excellent white diet, I lost almost five kilograms. The most important thing is that she is not hungry. The choice of products is rich, so there will be no problems with variety. Of course, for those who don’t particularly like fresh food, it will be a bit heavy. But I always eat chicken without salt and cottage cheese without sugar, so that’s fine for me. And the abundance of permitted fruits completely replaces all dessert dishes.

Alice: It took me not even five, but six and a half kilograms. However, it’s also worth considering that I work as a courier, so I move a lot during the day, and that I don’t eat after six. The white diet itself for weight loss is easy. You don't feel hungry on it. The range of allowed dishes is simply huge when compared with other diets.

Valeria: A white diet was used for bleaching. And my teeth remained white and I lost half a kilogram, which I actually gained almost immediately after finishing the diet.

Larisa: I’m not overweight, but I have a favorite dress that I wanted to wear to my parents’ golden wedding. However, it fit too tight on me. A week on a white diet, after which the dress fit perfectly. I lost three kilograms and half of them came back.

Power system: recommendations

There are no serious restrictions on the amount of food consumed in order to maintain the effect after the procedure. You can eat in regular portions and the usual number of times a day. The restrictions imposed by the white diet concern only the color of food. You can balance your own diet based on your feelings and taste preferences, or by consulting a nutritionist.

This diet should be followed for several weeks after the day of whitening; approximately 2-3 weeks are required for the enamel to be completely restored. You should especially strictly monitor your diet in the first three days, since during this period the enamel does not yet have time to recover. Depending on the degree of its strengthening, you can add other foods to your diet, slowly returning to your usual diet, but with a perfect smile.

Methods for losing weight

The white diet offers many options for weight loss. Each of them has a special menu and duration.

For healthy teeth

The white diet is a good way to keep your teeth white after whitening. For the first 7-10 days, you need to eat exclusively light-colored natural foods that do not contain natural or artificial colors. During this period, white products will help consolidate the results of the dental procedure. After all, food dyes reduce the effect of bleaching to nothing.

Important: The white milk diet is especially beneficial due to the large amount of calcium in the diet.

The enamel will become thinner during the whitening process. Calcium from the inside will strengthen teeth and make them less sensitive to external influences.

If you do not want to lose weight, then you should eat as usual, just change the composition of the prepared dishes. If you want to lose weight at the same time, stick to dietary restrictions.

Excluded:

• Black tea;
• coffee;
• chocolate, cocoa;
