The ZOOM! Whitening Process
Pre-treatment Consultation
Before starting your ZOOM! whitening journey, a thorough consultation is conducted to assess eligibility and understand patient expectations. This critical step allows for the creation of a personalized treatment plan tailored to each individual. Our Sierra Vista dentist will assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and provide personalized recommendations based on your unique circumstances.
Remember, individual candidacy may vary, and it’s important to consult with a dental professional to determine the most appropriate whitening solution for your specific needs.
In-office Procedure
The in-office ZOOM! Whitening procedure is a carefully orchestrated process designed for swift, stunning results. After ensuring your comfort, your certified ZOOM! provider will shield your lips, gums, and soft tissues, leaving only your teeth exposed. A specialized ZOOM! Whitening gel is then applied, working in harmony with a powerful LED light to break down stains and discoloration. As the gel works its magic, you may experience a gentle warming sensation, signifying the active enhancement of your smile’s brilliance.
Throughout the teeth whitening treatment, our dentist monitors progress, adjusting as needed for optimal results. Once achieved, the gel is removed, and a post-treatment gel is applied for comfort and reduced sensitivity. In about an hour, you’ll leave with a noticeably brighter, confidence-boosting smile.
At-home Maintenance
Maintaining the brilliance achieved with ZOOM! Whitening is key to enjoying long-lasting results. We’ll provide you with comprehensive post-treatment care instructions tailored to your specific needs.
- Regular Brushing and Flossing: Use a non-abrasive toothpaste and floss regularly to preserve your bright smile.
- Consider using whitening toothpaste or custom whitening trays to maintain the results of your treatment.
