How Zoom teeth whitening works

When you visit us, we will meet with you and examine your teeth and gums to determine if they are healthy enough for a cosmetic treatment. If you have gum disease, cavities, or an infection, we want to treat this first so that you are in good oral health and to prevent you from experiencing any unnecessary sensitivity. Once cleared for the procedure, these are the steps that we will take:

• Clean and polish your teeth to ensure that the whitening gel is being placed on clean teeth, rather than plaque buildup

  

• Protect your lips with a special lip cream to avoid irritation
• Place a retractor in your mouth to help pull back the lips and expose the teeth
• Next, you will bite down and rest your tongue on a cup that was placed in your mouth with the retractor
• We will use a shade guide so that you can determine how white you want your teeth to be
• After taking a photo of your teeth, we will place gauze inside of your mouth and a bib around your face, while giving you protective eyewear to use. This step can take a few minutes to ensure that the only area exposed to the whitening solution is your teeth
• Next, we will place a protective solution on your gums
• A protective solution is applied to your teeth and then the whitening gel is evenly brushed on.mile right away.

As a Zoom whitening dentist, we will shine a special laser light on your teeth to activate the whitening solution. This can usually take about fifteen-minutes so that we can examine your teeth throughout the process, reapply the whitening solution, and wipe away any access to ensure that your gums are not irritated. This is repeated until we are confident that your teeth are as bright and as white as you wanted them to be. A benefit of checking your teeth every fifteen minutes is that it gives us control over how white your teeth become. There is no such thing as a perfect smile or the right shade of white – only what you find attractive and beautiful. With that in mind, we do our best to ensure that the final shade of your teeth is one that you are pleased with.

Once the process has been completed, we will wipe away any remaining whitening gel, remove the gauze and protective barrier then rinse your mouth. We can also apply a finishing product and will take a picture so that you can compare your teeth before and after the Zoom whitening treatment has been completed. The entire procedure can be completed during your lunch break so that you can have a gorgeous s
