Zoom whitening is an increasingly popular alternative to conventional tooth bleaching procedures. Although Zoom whitening is similar to other options in its basic stain removal mechanism, it is different in some important ways. Here is more about the uniqueness of Zoom whitening.
Most tooth bleaching formulations contain only concentrated hydrogen peroxide. With Zoom, carbamide peroxide is used for increased whitening power. To speed and enhance results, our San Francisco cosmetic dentist activates the formula with the patented Zoom light.
Many other in-office whitening treatments involve a single application of the gel during each session of treatment, whereas Zoom includes multiple cycles per appointment. Up to three times, our dentist cleans the teeth, inserts a barrier, applies the gel and activates it with the light. As a result, patients have their smile up to eight shades whiter by the end of treatment.
Zoom offers impressive results in just one appointment. Yet, this system also allows for patients to schedule additional sessions to reach the shade they want, if necessary. Fluoride, which strengthens tooth enamel, can also be applied at the end of a Zoom whitening session for patients at risk of tooth sensitivity. Patients can schedule a consultation with our expert in Zoom whitening in San Francisco to learn more about how this treatment compares to alternatives.
