How to Keep Your Teeth White and Bright!

A white smile is easy to obtain when you know the right tricks. In addition to our whitening services here at Top Choice Dental in Hopkinsville, KY, we want our patients to know how to keep bright, white, and shiny teeth!


A white smile is a great confidence booster. While we have professional whitening services here in our Hopkinsville, KY office, it is good to know some tips for avoiding staining.


Try to stay away from darker foods like coffee, blueberries, and tomato sauce. It is not always easy to stay away from these, especially if they are favorites so rinse your mouth after consuming them when you do. Rinsing is also important when eating foods high in acidic content, like citric fruits and energy drinks. Also be sure to have a regular oral hygiene routine of brushing and flossing.


 Baking soda is a popular home treatment method for teeth whitening, but be informed. Baking soda is very abrasive, which is bad for teeth. It wears away enamel, which eventually will turn your teeth dark; the opposite of what you want. In addition, worn away enamel makes teeth prone to cavities. Instead, visit us for our custom take-home whitening trays.


Follow these tips and keep those pearly whites white! For information about our professional whitening, schedule an appointment with Top Choice Dental of Hopkinsville, KY by calling (270) 886-8585. More information can also be found on our website, www.hoptowndental.com
