We offer ZOOM! In-Office & Take-Home Whitening

Discoloration can be the result of a combination of things:

Genetics
Poor oral hygiene
Accidents
Medication
The effects of aging
Smoking
Certain foods.

Whitening techniques will only work for staining caused by some medications if the discoloration is very mild. Teeth that are discolored because of medication or excessive fluoride are not good candidates for the whitening procedure. Veneers are the best solution for more severe discoloration cases. Once you reach our office, our dentist will let you know the best solution for you.

ZOOM! In Office Whitening Procedure

We are delighted to offer our patients the latest in whitening procedures. The Zoom! In-Office Whitening System is a revolutionary tooth whitening procedure. It’s safe effective and very fast.

First we will begin by removing the plaque that has built up along the gum line.
Then, a protective covering will be placed over your gums to protect the soft tissue from the bleaching agent.
Then, we will apply the whitening gel to your teeth.
A light will be pointed at your teeth to activate the bleaching agent.
The gel is a scientifically formulated, pH balanced Hydrogen Peroxide that, when activated by the Zoom! light, gently penetrates the teeth to remove deep stains and discoloration. With proper care and an occasional touch-up at home, your whiter smile will sparkle for years.

In just under an hour, your teeth will be dramatically whiter. Zoom! Whitening is ideal for anyone looking for immediate results. The convenience of Zoom! in comparison to days of wearing trays and gradual whitening makes it the perfect choice for the busy patient.

Other whitening systems don’t compare to the Zoom! Chairside Whitening System. Nothing whitens better or faster.

Take Home Teeth Whitening

Under the supervision of our dentist, our whitening treatments are completely safe and will not harm teeth or gums. Using our custom made trays and eight tubes of solution, our whitening system lasts a long time. This means you will experience very little whitening loss over time if you maintain good dental habits.

First an impression of your teeth will be taken. It will be used as a mold to make custom whitening trays that look like a mouth guard.
When the whitening trays are ready you will have another appointment to test if the trays fit properly to the teeth.
Instructions will be provided on how to use the trays in conjunction with the whitening gel.
The peroxide whitening gel is placed into the custom trays at home and worn for a certain amount of time each day (usually twice a day for 30 minutes to 2 hours for a 2 to 4 week period).
The custom-made tray minimizes the bleaching gel’s contact with the gum tissue.

The advantage of using dentist-supervised bleaching is that teeth can be properly assessed to have the correct chemical concentration, correct method and length of treatment and to be sure the patient is even suitable to have their teeth whitened.
