At our Abu Dhabi dental clinic, Philips ZOOM whitening is supported by clear aftercare instructions designed to help you preserve brightness, reduce sensitivity, and enjoy your radiant smile for as long as possible.
What to Avoid
For the first 7 days after your whitening procedure, avoid foods and drinks with strong pigments such as:
coffee, chocolate, red wine, fruit juices, dark sodas (like cola), bright berries and fruits, beets, carrots, and sauces such as soy sauce, ketchup, mustard, or adjika.
– Do not smoke — tobacco smoke may stain your teeth.
– Avoid consuming very hot and cold foods or drinks together (for example, coffee with ice cream).
What to Do
– Use a remineralising gel in custom trays for two weeks to strengthen enamel and minimise sensitivity.
– Brush your teeth with a medium-bristled toothbrush.
– Visit your dentist at least twice a year for preventive check-ups.
– Maintain excellent oral hygiene: floss daily, use high-quality toothpaste and an irrigator. Ideally, brush after every meal — at minimum, twice a day.
Want Even Whiter Teeth?
To enhance or maintain your whitening results, you can do at-home whitening with Philips ZOOM gel — always under your dentist’s supervision.
The gel is placed into custom trays and worn either overnight or for 1–2 hours during the day for 1–2 weeks. Your dentist will help you choose the right schedule depending on your tooth sensitivity and desired shade.
