If your teeth are dull and discolored, Zoom! teeth whitening can restore their brilliance. Zoom in-office whitening treatment can be completed in just one dental visit to Westwood Village Smiles in Los Angeles, California. Newbies to teeth whitening are bound to have questions about this treatment. Dr. Jose Omar Guillen provides the answers to decide if Zoom! is right for you.
As teeth whitening can only be done on healthy teeth, Dr. Guillen will start with a checkup to confirm you have good oral health. From there, we’ll review the different shades for whitening your smile so you can select the color you feel is best for you. Next, we’ll cover your lips and gums to protect them from the whitening solution.
Zoom! uses a potent hydrogen peroxide whitening gel to break down stains and discolorations on your teeth. Once the gel is in place, we’ll activate it with a special light for fifteen minutes. We’ll then remove the first layer of gel and repeat the process twice to achieve optimal whitening results. Afterward, Dr. Guillen will apply fluoride to your teeth to reduce sensitivity that often occurs after whitening treatment. Depending on the state of your teeth, your procedure may take sixty to ninety minutes to complete.
No. Zoom! teeth whitening isn’t painful, but you may experience minor sensitivity during or after treatment. This is temporary and may last a day or two at most. If you have sensitive teeth, Dr. Guillen may recommend using sensitive toothpaste for a week before your treatment to help manage these symptoms.
Zoom! uses high-grade whitening agents that are safe for your teeth and achieve optimal whitening results. In-office treatments are conducted in a secure, hygienic environment by dentists with years of experience. You get quick, long-lasting whitening results that return your smile’s youthful, vibrant appearance.
Zoom! ‘s whitening results can last six months and a few years, depending on how well you care for your teeth. You can keep your pearly whites bright and beautiful longer by practicing good oral hygiene, refraining from smoking, avoiding stain-causing foods and drinks and seeing your dentist regularly for routine cleanings.
Yes! Plaque and tartar on your teeth can impair the whitening process, causing your teeth to whiten unevenly. To maximize your treatment, Dr. Guillen will schedule a dental cleaning within a week of your whitening procedure.
Absolutely! Zoom! will put a whiter, brighter smile on your face to boost your confidence, happiness and self-esteem!
