The Zoom Process

Although a routine teeth cleaning is advised before the Zoom teeth whitening treatment, the whole process takes less than an hour. The teeth are left uncovered during the brief preparation phase that precedes the surgery. After that, the Zoom hydrogen peroxide whitening gel is applied by the dentist or dental assistant. This gel penetrates the teeth and breaks up stains and discolorations by combining with the Zoom light. The gel is left in place while the light is turned on for fifteen minutes. You may unwind, watch TV, or listen to music at this time.

For a total of 45 minutes of therapy, three 15-minute light activation sessions using the gel are administered. People who are anxious or have a strong gag reflex could find it difficult to go through the full process. The teeth are then immediately treated with a fluoride paste-gel that reduces sensitivity.

In order to prolong the bleaching results of your procedure, your dentist could suggest avoiding certain foods and drinks or consuming them in moderation to prevent discoloration of your teeth. This covers things like cola, red wine, tea, and coffee.

Tobacco products often leave stains on teeth, even after teeth whitening procedures. Iris Dental Group in Etobicoke will thus advise you to stop using them. To stop stains from coming back, practice good oral hygiene (brushing and flossing) and schedule routine tooth cleanings with your dentist and hygienist.

Iris Dental Group could also recommend toothpaste with whitening chemicals if you want to keep the procedure's effects.
