Zoom Teeth Whitening

Zoom teeth whitening uses several powerful ingredients to reduce staining and brighten smiles. It comes in a gel formula, made with hydrogen peroxide which is much more powerful and effective than over-the-counter products. The dentist will coat the teeth with this gel to start the whitening session. Then, the dentist uses a special light to activate the gel and remove staining on the teeth.The treatment takes just over an hour and includes a five-minute fluoride treatment. 

Before starting the treatment process, Our team will help patients understand what happens at each appointment. Here are the steps in the Zoom whitening process.

• Setup: The dental provider will take pictures of the current shade of teeth and give information on what type of results to expect. Next, the dentist places cheek retractors into the mouth to pull back the lips and expose the teeth for the whitening treatment.

• Gel Application: The next part of the process involves the proprietary Zoom gel. The dentist coats the patient’s teeth with the whitening gel and uses Zoom light to activate the gel. Return Treatment: For optimal results, patients should return for additional whitening treatments. Many patients complete about three treatments.

• Return Treatment: For optimal results, patients should return for additional whitening treatments. Many patients complete about three treatments.

• After Whitening: Patients may get a home touch-up whitening kit to help maintain the results. When using the home trays, coat the tray with whitening gel and wear on the teeth for about two hours. Patients should store the touch-up kit in a cool, dry place.

Preparing for Zoom whitening is fairly simple and easy. It may also be more comfortable to apply lip balm before the treatments so the lips do not get too dry during the whitening process.Other than that, there are no special things to do before treatment. Patients should be able to drive themselves to and from the procedure as no anesthesia is required.
