Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Zoom! Tooth whitening?
A: Zoom! Is a bleaching process that lightens discoloration
of enamel and dentine.
Q: What causes tooth discoloration?
A: There are many causes. The most common include aging and
consumption of staining substances such as coffee, tea, colas,
tobacco, red wine, etc. During tooth formation, consumption and
tetracycline. Certain antibiotics or excessive fluoride may also
cause tooth discoloration.
Q: Who may benefit from tooth whitening?
A: Almost anyone. However, treatment may not be as effective
for some as it is for others. Your dental professional can determine
if you are viable candidate for this procedure through a thorough
oral exam, including a shade assessment.
Q: Do many people whiten their teeth?
A: More people than you might imagine. A bright sparkling
smile can make a big difference for everyone. The Zoom! Chairside
Whitening System makes it easier and faster than ever before.
Q: Is whitening safe?
A: Yes. Extensive research and clinical studies indicate that
whitening teeth under the supervision of a dentist is safe. In fact,
many dentists consider whitening the safest cosmetic dental procedure
available. As with any tooth whitening product, Zoom! Is not
recommended for children under 13 years of age or pregnant or
lactating women.
Q: How long do the results last?
A: By following some simple post 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 a
daily, and occasional touch-ups with Zoom! Take-Home gel. These are
professional formula products designed specifically to keep your
teeth their brightest. They are available only through your dental
professional.
Q: How does Zoom! In-office system work?
A: The Zoom! Light activated whitening gel's active ingredient
is Hydrogen Peroxide. As the Hydrogen Peroxide is broken down, oxygen
enters the enamel and dentine, bleaching colored substances while the
structure of the tooth is unchanged. The Zoom! Light aids in
activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface
of the tooth. A study has shown that use of the Zoom! Lamp increases
the effectiveness of the Zoom! Gel by 33% or more, giving an average
improvement of eight shades*.
Q: What does a patient experience during the Zoom! In-Office Procedure?
A: During the procedure, patients may comfortably watch
television or listen to music. Many actually fall asleep.
Individuals with a strong gag reflex or anxiety may have
difficulty undergoing the entire procedure.
Q: How is exposure to Zoom!
Light controlled?
A: The Zoom! procedure requires that all soft tissue in and
around the mouth be protected. The clinician is required to monitor
the procedure to insure any exposed skin or tissue is isolated and
protected. Protective eyewear is required during the procedure.
Light sensitive individuals, including those undergoing PUVA therapy
(Psoralen+UV Radiation) or other photo chemotherapy, or patients with
melanoma, should not undergo the Zoom! In-office procedure. Also,
patients taking any light sensitive drugs or substances, whether over
the counter, prescription or homeopathic, should consult their
primary care physician prior to the procedure. Anyone who is
eligible for Zoom! Chairside whitening for these reasons may be an
excellent candidate for Zoom! Take-Home.
Q: How long does Zoom!
Chairside Whitening take?
A: The complete procedure takes just over an hour. The
procedure begins with a preparation period followed by one hour of
bleaching. A five minute fluoride treatment completes the procedure.
(A cleaning is recommended prior to the actual Zoom! whitening session.)
Q: Are there any side effects?
A: Sensitivity during the treatment may occur with some
patients. The Zoom! Light generates minimal heat which is the usual
source of discomfort. On rare occasions, minor tingling sensations
are experienced immediately after the procedure, but always dissipate.
