The 30 Day Whitening Guide

The 30 Day Whitening Guide is actually very simple. Once you’ve got the materials above, use them according to the steps listed below.

Days 1-5

For the first five days, use the Rembrandt Premium Whitening Mint Toothpaste at least twice a day (morning and night) and a third time (after lunch), if possible. In addition to the toothpaste, use the Listerine Antiseptic Mouthwash in the morning and again before bed. Days 1-5 are simply to prepare your teeth to be whitened and ensure that your teeth and gums are clean and healthy.

Days 6-15

The next ten days are the first whitening cycle. Begin using the Crest Whitestrips Premium Plus 10 Day Treatment as directed on the box. The treatment will require you to apply the strips to the top and bottom of your teeth for thirty minutes, twice a day for ten consecutive days. After day 15 the first box of whitestrips should be finished. Continue using the toothpaste and mouthwash as directed for days 1-5. If you experience tooth or gum sensitivity you may take a discontinue the whitestrips for a day or two, but be sure to resume the treatment again as soon as possible.

Days 16-20

Days 16-20 should be treated the same as days 1-5. Continue using the toothpaste and mouthwash on a regular basis and give your teeth a short break from the whitestrips. By now you should definitely see some significant whitening. At this point, if you’re satisfied with the amount of whitening your teeth have gained, you should save the second box of whitestrips and repeat the guide in five or six months. However if you’d like your teeth to get even whiter continue on to days 21-30.

Days 21-30

These ten days are the same as days 6-15. You’re going to apply the second box of whitestrips treatment. Again if you notice your teeth becoming sensitive it’s ok to give them a day or so break. By now you should notice a significant change in how white your teeth are. Continue to brush your teeth with the Rembrandt toothpaste and rinse twice daily with the Listerine mouthwash.

Once you’re finished with the second box of Crest Whitestrips you’ll be done with the thirty day whitening guide. It’s ok if it takes you a few days longer to finish due to tooth sensitivity. The important thing is that you use all the strips. To maintain your level of whiteness continue using a whitening toothpaste and taking solid care of your teeth and gums by flossing and rinsing.

The thirty day whitening guide should keep your teeth white for 6-8 months before you begin to notice them losing a bit of luster. The un-whitening process will be slow but it will happen. Whenever you decide it’s time to re-whiten, simply begin the process again.
