What to Expect

To get Zoom Tooth Whitening, you need to have a professional cleaning within the past six months. Ideally, you should have a cleaning before having whitening. In this way, your teeth will be free olaque and tartar to help  you get the best results.  Your dentist will place protective coverings over your lips and gums. The Zoom whitening gel will then be applied to your teeth for 15 minutes and a light placed over it to activate the gel. This cycle may be repeated up to four times, after which time your teeth may be lightened by as many as 6 to 10 shades. Individual results vary depending on many factors including your natural tooth color. Zoom Whitening works only on natural teeth – it can not be used for crowns or veneers.

To maintain your whitening treatment results, avoid drinking strongly colored beverages like red wine and coffee, as these can stain your teeth. You may also want to switch to a whitening toothpaste that will help remove stains that can accumulate each day. If you receive a Zoom at-home touch up kit or whitening pen, use it to maintain your results according to your dentist’s instructions.
