Key Takeaways

  • Zoom!® Whitening is a modern dentistry treatment with which you can get a sparkling smile with white teeth within a very short span of time.
  • The treatment is done step by step.
  • The article mainly deals with those aspects that distinguish Zoom!® Teeth Whitening from conventional teeth whitening and the longevity of the result.

What is Zoom!® Whitening?

Zoom!® Whitening is mainly regarded as a professional practice by which teeth whitening can be done. Whether you want an snow-white smile or the most radiant teeth, Zoom!® Whitening is the ideal choice. Whether you want to achieve a celebrity within a single visit, then Zoom!® Whitening is all that you require. As such Zoom!® Teeth Whitening has shown increasing popularity on the part of those who prefer a quick teeth whitening solution and is an advanced technique safe to use which works instant.

Almost every teeth whitening kit that promises to whiten teeth never works. Unlike the regular whitening products available in the market, Zoom!® Whitening is catered to individual patients. This process is much safer and more effective compared to over the counter and pharmacy teeth whitening products which only treat the surface stains. With this method, you not only receive surface-level staining treatment but also receive treatment for deeper discoloration. It is all done in a single visit and never has an accumulation of stains. So, there is little to no difference between the expected and the actual results.

How Does Zoom!® Teeth Whitening Work?

Zoom!® Whitening is the combination of a special whitening gel and a high-intensity light. The active ingredient in this is hydrogen peroxide which breaks down the stains on the teeth. As the Zoom!® turns the light on, this gel penetrates into the enamel to lift deep stains and discoloration, hence leaving visible whiter teeth.

Why Choose Zoom!® Over Other Whitening Methods?

  • Fast Results: See whiter teeth in just one session.
  • Personalized treatment: Treatment is tailored to your sensitivity and desired level of whitening.
  • Clinically Proven: Zoom!® whitening treatment is scientifically proven and is trusted by dental professionals out there.
  • Convenient: This breakthrough treatment isn't several weeks of at-home treatments.
  • Professional Guidance: Zoom!® whitening is performed by trained dental professionals and is thus very safe, besides being highly effective.

Zoom!® whitening would do just fine for those in search of quick and effective whitening of teeth. This is an ideal combination of advanced technology with personalized care and proves more efficient as compared to other traditional or ordinary methods of whitening. It even works on stubborn stains like coffee, wine, and tobacco, making sure you can get rid of even the toughest discolouration.

How Does Zoom!® Teeth Whitening Work?

Step 1: Teeth Bleaching Consultation

Your teeth whitening journey starts with a consultation at Barrie Smile Centre. During this session, the dentist will:

  • Check the condition of your teeth and gums.
  • Determine if Zoom!® Whitening is the right choice for you.
  • Discuss your whitening goals and concerns.
  • Have your dentist take a photo of your teeth to benchmark the progress of the whitening.

This visit will also help your dentist identify factors that may influence whitening, such as cavities and gum disease, which should be treated before whitening.

As Dr. Jacklyn Pivovarov, a competent dentist at Barrie Smile Centre, says, "We are making sure that every patient has a treatment plan and in a very personalized way for achieving the best result."

Step 2: Preparing for Treatment

Before the procedure begins, your dentist will:

  • Clean your teeth professionally to remove surface debris.
  • Protect your gums and soft tissues with a special barrier.

What to avoid before the treatment:

  • Dark liquids, such as coffee and red wine
  • Smoking and tobacco.
  • Over-the-Counter whitening products
  • Acidic foods that serve to weaken your enamel

For all of those reasons, taking care to prevent the above means creating an environment where the application will have excellent results. Secondly, good oral hygiene in the pre-procedure days enhances results of the overall treatment.

Step 3: The Whitening Procedure

The teeth whitening process with Zoom!® includes:

  1. Application of the hydrogen peroxide gel to your teeth.
  2. Activation of the gel using the Zoom!® light for about 15 minutes, repeated up to three times.
  3. Final application of a fluoride-based gel to reduce sensitivity and strengthen enamel.

During the procedure, you’ll be seated comfortably while the dentist monitors your progress. The Zoom!® light enhances the effectiveness of the gel by degrading the stains in a much quicker way than with other methods. Each session of 15 minutes allows for gradual whitening and thus provides an even, natural result.

Step 4: Aftercare and Results

After your treatment, here are the steps to maintain your new smile:

  • For at least 48 hours, avoid foods and beverages that will stain the teeth.
  • Brush and floss as usual with a non-abrasive toothpaste.
  • A touch-up kit recommended by your dentist will help extend your results.
  • Rinse your mouth with water after consuming any acidic or staining substances.

How Long Does Zoom!® Whitening Last?

With proper care, Zoom!® Whitening results can last up to 12 months. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene are the keys that will keep you smiling bright. For long-term results, consult periodic touch-ups or whitening maintenance kits available from your dentist.

Zoom!® Whitening Aftercare Tips

  1. Stay hydrated. It encourages the production of saliva, which serves as a natural cleanser for the teeth.
  2. Using a straw when consuming dark beverages will help you reduce the chances of stains.
  3. Schedule regular dental cleanings to keep your smile looking fresh.
