Here’s everything you should know before you book your teeth whitening appointment.
🦷 About Your Appointment:
At Crystal Whitening, each whitening appointment lasts 90 minutes and includes:
Three 20-minute whitening sessions, all done back-to-back
One 10-minute complimentary Vitamin Booster treatment
Instant, visible results right after your appointment
Our whitening process is pregnancy and breastfeeding safe, and we never use harsh chemicals or preservatives.
💧 Pre-Care Instructions: Before Your Appointment:
To ensure the best results and avoid sensitivity, please follow these pre-care instructions carefully before your appointment:
Do not brush or floss your teeth for 6 hours before your appointment (you may use mouthwash if desired).
Stay hydrated! Drink at least 100 ounces of water within 24 hours before your appointment. Hydrated teeth are less likely to feel sensitivity during the whitening process.
Eat before your appointment. You’ll need to wait 2 hours after your appointment before eating again.
Following these steps helps ensure your treatment is comfortable and gives you the brightest results possible.
☀️ Aftercare Instructions: Following Your Appointment
After your professional whitening treatment, your teeth are more porous and can absorb color easily for the first 24 hours. Follow these aftercare instructions closely to maintain your bright new smile:
Do not eat or drink anything (except water) for 2 hours after your appointment.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help reduce any potential sensitivity.
Do not smoke or chew tobacco for at least 2 hours post-appointment.
Avoid dark-colored foods and drinks for 24 hours, including:
Coffee, tea, red wine, dark soda, fruit punch
Tomato sauce, red meat, dark-colored veggies
Anything heavily pigmented or colored
Stick to the “white diet” for 24 hours, which includes:
Water, white wine, chicken, pork, turkey, noodles, white cheese, potatoes, white sauces, and other light foods.
For the next 48 hours, brush gently with white toothpaste, but avoid brushing your gums.
If you experience mild sensitivity, it typically fades within 24 hours. You may take Advil or Tylenol if needed.
💎 Complimentary Vitamin Booster:
All Crystal Whitening clients receive a complimentary Vitamin Booster treatment at the end of their appointment.
You’ll also take home a Vitamin Booster to continue using:
Apply it for 20 minutes on your teeth and gums the night of your appointment, then rinse.
Repeat as often as needed.
Continue using it once a week until the product is gone.
This booster nourishes and strengthens the enamel while keeping your smile bright and healthy.
