DO MANY PEOPLE WHITEN THEIR TEETH?
More people whiten their teeth than you might imagine. A bright, sparkling smile can make a big difference for anyone.
IS THIS PROCEDURE SAFE?
Yes, extensive research and clinical studies indicate that whitening teeth under the supervision of a dentist is safe. In fact, many dentists consider teeth whitening the safest cosmetic dental procedure available. As with any teeth whitening products, it is not recommended for children under 13 years of age and pregnant or lactating women.
IS THERE ANY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OVER-THE-COUNTER TEETH WHITENERS AND ZOOM 2 TEETH WHITENING?
Yes! Consulting your dental professional is always the first step to whitening your teeth safely. Plus, over-the-counter teeth whitening strips, brush-on gels and toothpastes take weeks or months to whiten your teeth just a few shades. Zoom 2 is clinically proven to whiten your teeth nine to 12 shades in 45 minutes. Only a dentist can get your teeth that white, that fast.
HOW LONG DO THE RESULTS LAST?
By following some simple post teeth whitening care instructions, your teeth will always be lighter than they were before. To keep your teeth looking their best, we recommend flossing, brushing twice daily and occasional touch-ups with Zoom 2 take-home gel. This is a professional formula designed specifically to keep your teeth their brightest and packets are available through our office.
HOW DOES THE ZOOM 2 TEETH WHITENING IN-OFFICE SYSTEM WORK?
The Zoom 2 light-activated teeth whitening gel’s active ingredient is hydrogen peroxide. As the hydrogen peroxide gel is broken down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching colored substances while the structure of the tooth is unchanged. The teeth whitening light aids in activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface of the tooth.

HOW IS EXPOSURE TO THE ZOOM 2 TEETH WHITENING LIGHT CONTROLLED?
This whitening procedure requires that all soft tissue in and around the mouth be protected.

Light sensitive individuals, including those undergoing PUVA (psoralen and ultraviolet A) therapy or other photo-chemotherapy, as well as patients with melanoma, should not undergo the Zoom teeth whitening procedure. Patients taking light-sensitive drugs or substances should consult their physician prior to Zoom 2 teeth whitening.
