Get ready to Zoom!

The Zoom! Teeth Whitening procedure is simple and painless. It begins with a short preparation to isolate your lips and gums. We then apply a special cleaner that reduces sensitivity and precleans the teeth. After this, the Zoom!Whitening Gel is applied and activated by a special light. Teeth typically become at least six to ten shades whiter, sometimes more. A five-minute fluoride treatment completes the procedure. You’ll be amazed with the results. In most cases, teeth get even whiter the first few days after the procedure. For long term results the take home whitening must be done after the Zoom procedure in the office.

How Zoom! Works!

The Zoom! light activated gel was developed after years of research by Discus Dental, the leaders in professional take-home tooth whitening. The gel is a scientifically formulated, pH balanced Hydrogen Peroxide that, when activated by the Zoom! light, gently penetrates the teeth to remove deep stains and discoloration. With proper care and an occasional touch-up at home, your whiter smile will sparkle for years.
