Zoom!® Take Home

A simple scan is all you need to get started. Custom trays give you convenient teeth whitening at home, and the flexibility to whiten on your own schedule. Paired with Zoom!® DayWhite or NiteWhite whitening gels, custom trays allow for a precise fit and the ability to deliver whitening agents directly to the teeth, enhancing effectiveness and safety. They also minimize gum irritation and reduce the risk of tooth sensitivity compared to over-the-counter options.  

A pearly-white smile is beautiful to look at and can greatly improve self-confidence. Zoom!^® combines the newest advances in dental technology with proven chemical formulas. This ensures that the bleaching experience is painless, and the results are satisfying.

There are many reasons why teeth become stained or discolored, including tobacco use, and drinking dark liquids such as red wine, coffee, tea and cola.  However, the natural aging process and prescription medication use can also cause yellowing and graying.

There are literally hundreds of whitening treatments available in the marketplace, including take-home strips, bleaching toothpastes and take-home whitening gels.  Many take-home gels are ineffective and may not elicit the desired results.

Zoom!^® has many advantages over these other treatments, including:

• All teeth treated simultaneously.
• Faster treatment times.
• Longer lasting results.
• Reduced sensitivity.
• Removal of stains on crowns, veneers and other restorations.
• Safe procedure and treatment.

It is important to seek advice from the dentist prior to beginning a bleaching regime.  Women who are pregnant or lactating should not seek bleaching treatment.

How does Zoom!^® whiten the teeth?

Zoom!^® is a bleaching process that lightens the dentin and enamel of the teeth.  Zoom!^® DayWhite contains a hydrogen peroxide component (14%), which is the active ingredient in the gel.  When hydrogen peroxide is applied to the teeth, the peroxide component breaks down into tiny oxygen bubbles.  It is these bubbles that eliminate yellowing and staining. Zoom!®NiteWhite contains carbamide peroxide (22%), which is the active ingredient in the gel. It works by breaking down into hydrogen peroxide, which then oxidizes stain molecules within the tooth enamel, resulting in a whiter appearance. This process allows the ingredients to be active for longer periods of time, ideal for night time wear. 

As with any whitening system, the post-treatment results can vary according to the degree of staining and the condition of the teeth.  A consultation with the dentist prior to treatment will provide information as to what kind of results Zoom!^® can provide in specific instances.  Zoom!^® is only applied to healthy teeth and gums.  If tooth decay or gum disease is an issue, these need to be controlled before the bleaching treatment is performed.
