Nutritional recipes after teeth whitening

CoffeeNColor, on May 25, 2017 at 3:01 PM Posted in Fitness and Health 0 7

So I'm doing at-home teeth whitening. My dentist molded trays and I'm supposed to put the whitening solution on in the mornings, and desensitizing solution on at night.

He said not to eat anything that could "stain a white tshirt" because the teeth will be more porous with the whitening gel. He gave me a list that rules out anything with a tomato base, all fruit except bananas, black beans, spinach. I'm trying to find recipes that are nutritious but bland colored. Because chicken and brown rice is going to get old really fast.

I love salad and fruit, so this is going to be difficult. This is the one beauty extravagance I'm doing before the wedding and it's mostly because my teeth are stained from years of coffee consumption. I can only drink ice coffee through a straw until the wedding.

Any suggestions for foods to eat and to provide menu variety?

    Could you make smoothies and drink through a straw? Also, I'd think veggie and meat stirfrys would be good options and salads (I don't see why you couldn't eat salads?) and chicken broth based soups.

    I had my teeth whitened too. Baked potatoes...? Vodka. Lol. You can find vegetarian based "noodle" substitutes that are usually near the veggie meat substitutes that are pretty good , virtually

    No calories, and have it with parm and oil. Yogurt...

    @beachbride, he said the lettuce/spinach/kale could stain green. Plus the pick of vegetables added to the salad is limited.

    How long is this for?

    Turkey burgers, pasta with light alfredo sauce? Tuna? Check out Pinterest, I'm sure you can find some good recipes on there

    Apples? Pears? Grapes? Meat is fine without sauce on it. Yogurt, cheese. You can probably have fresh tomato, just not sauce. Google some things. You'll be fine.

    I have tried the whitening from the dental office and it makes my teeth very sensitive so I had to stop using it. waste of money since I had to stop.

    My husband and I ended up using activated charcoal. it only took a few use to see the difference. 100% natural, non-toxic chemicals, and it doesnt make my teeth sensitive!

    this is the brand that we used -
