How soon can I eat after bleaching my teeth? Am I supposed to avoid teeth staining food such as when you get your teeth whitened at the dentist?

I have never read anything that says you can't eat any kind of foods after whitening your teeth. I have never had a problem; just brush your teeth really well after whitening and rinse out your mouth.

Should not be a problem although I usually do the treatment between meals. When finished I rinse with mouthwash to remove any lingering taste.

I would suggest using the clear vegetable capsules if you're going to ingest. I am not ingesting--using to brush my teeth at night--a great teeth whitener.

The clear gel is for bleaching the blue gel is for gum sensitivity use a small amount after bleaching if you have sensitivity. What work best for me was putting vitamin E oil on my gums before bleaching and brushing with senydone toothpaste. I had very little sensitivity

The instructions don't say anything about that. Because the whitening (depending on the strength) is rough on tooth enamel, it does say you should brush your teeth after whitening. There is a toothpaste - Pronamel that may help). I Hope this helps.

At first I did for about 2 wks then cut back after my the stains on my teeth went away. After you use them a while you will be able to gauge how often you need them.

I leave mine on for at least one hour. You can leave it on longer if you like, but some people complain of it causing sensitivity (ie; teeth "tender" to cold liquids etc. I have a friend who leaves it on overnight.) I've never had any problems with cold sensitivity myself and I've left it on for as long as 3 hrs. before. I don't think it'll make your teeth any whiter after an hour, or so......it's done its job and the potency has fizzled out. One thing I have noticed is DON'T eat anything with strong color after you've used this product. Like carrots or wine....I did my usual treatment, brushed my teeth then ate some carrots....then went to put my makeup on and freaked as my teeth were very orange! It came off pretty quick with another brushing...still...freaky.

Are you kidding! This is a concentrated laundry bleach ! You could burn your mouth and do whoknows what kind of damage by putting it in your mouth. Teeth whiteners are not bleach. They are made of a culinary grade of peroxide. Bleach is poison.

I had coffee/tea stains in between my teeth and it whitened them the same color as the rest of the teeth. My dentist gave me this in the office and Ive been re ordering ever since. Careful getting too much on your gums as it will make them extremely sensitive for a few days. I use it once every 4-6 months. Hope that helps some.

It has been about 8 months since I whitened my teeth, and I still feel that they are whiter than they were before I did it. I would guess most people would probably whiten every 6 months to keep their teeth looking white at all times.

The light is supposed to help with the whitening process as used at other professional establishments. You suppose to keep it in your mouth for at least 10-20 minutes after the treatment. The treatment isn't supposed to dry on your teeth because it's supposed to be applied only to the tray then insert the tray in your mouth. Be careful not to add too much treatment because it will burn / irritate your gum on contact. I hope this helps.

I have a missing front tooth that I use temptooth for. (this product is awesome by the way totally worth the money!!) I leave mine in to eat all the time. It says not to but you can do it. as long as the tooth is in tight enough and you aren't eating something real sticky or gooey. A couple of times I ate something that was kind of sticky or gooey and my tooth came out in the food. I felt it right away both times and was able to just put it back in real quick without anyone noticing and was just real careful while eating the rest of whatever it was I was eating. At first I thought I shouldn't leave it in when eating something that could stain it like spaghetti with the red tomato sauce that it would stain it but I have left it in when eating these types of things and it hasn't stained it at least not where it is noticeable. I do take it out when brushing my teeth just so I can get the teeth around it cleaner without it in the way but if you had to brush in front of others I guess you could brush with it in. They say not to sleep with it either but I have a couple of times and it stayed in place and was fine. Again as long as the tooth is fitting tightly enough that it doesn't easily fall out. Usually I take it out at night though. I have made several backups to use just in case one does accidently get swallowed when eating or I forget to put it on it the morning. A couple of times I was so tired in the morning on my way out the door to work and just totally forgot about my tooth but luckly I had a backup in my purse that I could use and didn't have to go all the way back home to get it. If I don't tell people I have a fake tooth they don't even know.

That depends on how much you use. I had my teeth whitened by a orthodontist, and as a maintainance, he recommended opalescence. There are different strengths, so you have to be careful because it can irritate your gums if you are using too strong a percentage.

It really whitens your teeth. I have a custom tray I had made at my detist. I did it for 2 hours 7-10 days initially. Now after my 6 month cleaning I use it 2-4 days for upkeep. Using longer than 2 hours really makes teeth sensitive. This quantity last me over a year. I keep it in the refrigerator.

I like the 14% Day White better than the Night White, because I don't like sleeping with bleaching trays in my mouth. I get good whitening from the Day White formula. I use it twice a day and leave it on my teeth for 30 minutes, each time.

My teeth is discolored because I drink a lot of coffee, I have use this product daily and have seen results. My teeth are getting whiter, but I also use the whitening pen everyday too. I really can't speak for anyone else, but if you do drink a lot of tea, coffee, or other teeth straining products, your teeth won't stay white and you will have to apply the product often.

After about three hours of bleaching I remove the trays, rinse out my mouth and then I will eat. If you are a big red wind or coffee drinker you will just have to whiten more often.

Not sure. I wore bleach-stained clothing, so I can't say if Oh Yuk! bleached my clothes. I removed all cloth items from the tub area and tied dental floss to the tub stopper to let the water out--keep it off your skin. Keep the bathroom window open during cleaning, your eyes and throat will begin to burn if the room is closed up.
