How it works
Check first
Your dentist makes sure your teeth and gums are ready.
Clean and protect
We polish your teeth. We put a gel on your gums to protect them.
Zoom treatment
A whitening gel and a special light do the work. This is about three rounds of 15 minutes.
Keep it white
Take-home whitening and touch-ups help it last.

Common questions
How long does Zoom whitening take?
About one hour in our office. It depends on the result you want.
How long does it last?
It can last for months. If your teeth stain easily, you may need touch-ups. Some people do it every six months.
Does whitening hurt?
Most people feel fine. Some have sensitive teeth for a short time. Your dentist can help with that.
Will whitening change my crowns or fillings?
No. Whitening only works on your natural teeth. Crowns, veneers and fillings stay the same color, so your dentist plans for them.
