Tips for Maximizing Teeth Whitening Results
- Rinse with Warm Water Before Application
Before applying the whitening gel, rinse your mouth with warm water. Using water slightly warmer than your mouth temperature can help activate the oxygen-releasing agents in the gel, enhancing the whitening process. - Maintain Slight Moisture on Teeth
Whitening gel works best when mixed with a small amount of moisture. Keeping your teeth slightly damp ensures optimal activation of the gel. - Avoid Swallowing Saliva During Whitening
Excess saliva can dilute the whitening gel, reducing its effectiveness. If saliva builds up, spit it out rather than swallowing it to maintain the gel's full potency. - Ensure Even and Direct Application
Use a cotton swab to spread a thin, even layer of whitening gel across your teeth, making sure it fully contacts the enamel. Avoid applying it to the gums to prevent irritation. - Limit Certain Foods and Drinks After Whitening
For at least one hour after whitening, avoid dark-colored beverages like coffee, red wine, tea, and carbonated drinks, as well as acidic foods such as lemons, oranges, and vinegar. These can stain or weaken the newly whitened enamel. - Apply a Remineralizing Gel for Stronger Teeth
Finishing with a remineralizing gel can help reinforce enamel, making your teeth stronger and healthier after the whitening treatment.
How the Whitening Gel Works
Fabulshine's whitening gel is made in the USA to tackle stains from common foods and drinks. Activated by LED light, it releases oxygen free radicals in 5 minutes, breaking down stains.
These tiny molecules penetrate deep into the dentin, removing tough discoloration without harming enamel, restoring your teeth's natural whiteness.
How Blue and Red Light Help in Whitening
460nm Blue Light – Speeds Up Whitening
Activates the gel, releasing oxygen radicals (O₂⁻ and OH⁻) that break down stains faster for quicker, more effective whitening.
620nm Red Light – Supports Gum Health
Improves blood flow, reduces gum inflammation, and helps with tooth sensitivity, making whitening gentler and more comfortable.
Why Use Remineralizing Gel After Whitening?
- Not Needed for Non-Sensitive Teeth – If your teeth feel fine, you can skip it.
- Great for Sensitive Teeth – Helps restore minerals, strengthen enamel, and reduce discomfort from hot, cold, or acidic foods.
- Keeps Teeth Smooth & Stain-Free – Protects against stains from coffee, tea, and red wine, keeping your whitening results longer.
How Often to Use Whitening Gel
- For Deep Stains (10+ Years Old) – Use daily for up to 14 days. If continuing beyond 2 weeks, consult a dentist.
- For Maintenance or Moderate Whitening – Use 1 to 3 times per week to keep teeth bright.
- For Sensitive Teeth – Use once a week and apply remineralizing gel to reduce discomfort.
