They do this by depositing their dark or highly pigmented colors on your beam. This is a big issue if you just had your pearly whites brightened and should be avoided as much as possible. Some of the foods and drinks that you should look out for include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dark or vibrant produce, like berries, plums, carrots, grapes, and cherries<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highly pigmented sauces, such as tomato, soy, and balsamic vinegar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>pomegranates, spinach, or any other vibrant fruits or vegetables<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Acidic foods and beverages, like pickles, beer, and citrus fruits<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brown or black drinks, such as dark sodas, coffee, and tea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Red wine, grape juice, and other colorful beverages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Eat Instead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we&#8217;ve established what foods you should avoid so you don\u2019t stain your pearly whites after undergoing a whitening treatment, what should you have instead?
