Summer is coming, and it's time to get ready for those hot summer nights, parties at the pool and your annual family vacation. Summer is such a fun time of year in which most people are incredibly busy. Whether you're taking a spa vacation, heading to the annual family reunion, attending your best friend's wedding or kicking it back at the beach, summer is the time when people capture these memories with pictures. When a patient has stained or yellowing teeth, then he or she may be less apt to smile brightly for those Instagram shots. Fortunately we have an easy solution that can brighten an individual's smile in as little as 1 or 2 visits to our office!
Zoom bleaching is the fastest and most effective way to whiten one's teeth. Zoom not only removes the surface stains on the teeth but it also penetrates the enamel, which begins the process of oxidization. Molecules inside the teeth will change to reflect less light and appear colorless. As a result the teeth become white and bright! We use secure-fitting whitening trays, a peroxide-based solution and then a dental laser to activate the solution for faster results.
Why choose Zoom over store bought or other at home whitening products? Zoom is quick and easy. While you might obtain whiter teeth with other products done at home, the result is slower, not always as effective and can sometimes create sensitivity.
With the Zoom product, we will have you come into our office for a quick exam to make sure your teeth are in good shape and free of any decay or infections. Once determined that you are good to go for whitening treatment the process can begin.
