What types of stains can professional teeth whitening treat?
The Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening system is most effective at treating extrinsic stains. Extrinsic stains are types of tooth stains that sit on the surface of your teeth. External factors such as excessive or long-term coffee, tea, or red wine consumption cause extrinsic stains.
Years of smoking can lead to extrinsic stains on your teeth as well. Your dentist will suggest Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening to tackles these types of stains.
Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening may not be effective at treating intrinsic stains. These types of stains occur deep within the tooth and are hard to remove. Factors such as aging, genetics, certain medications, and excessive fluoride consumption cause intrinsic tooth stains. Our dentist may recommend tooth bonding or porcelain veneers to tackle these types of cosmetic imperfections.
How Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening Works
The Zoom teeth whitening procedure removes surface stains in as little as one visit. The procedure typically involves the following steps to give you whiter teeth.
- Preparation: Our dental staff will take the necessary steps to protect your gums and lips. We will not expose your soft gum tissue to the whitening gel or light for your safety.
- Application: Once we prepare your mouth, our dentist will apply the specially formulated bleaching gel to your teeth. This hydrogen peroxide-based gel will break down surface stains and remove them.
- Light Activation: After we apply the gel, we will direct the Zoom light at your teeth. This is what will activate the bleaching gel and accelerate the whitening process. It helps penetrate the enamel more effectively to give faster results.
- Multiple Sessions: Our dentists can repeat this process several times. Typically, the Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening system consists of three-to-four 15 minute whitening sessions. Our dentist will apply the gel and direct the light at your teeth each time.
- Aftercare: After your final round of whitening, your dentist will apply a different gel to reduce tooth sensitivity. Temporary sensitivity is a common side effect of teeth whitening.
Once we complete your Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening procedure in Hunt Valley, MD, you will notice that your teeth are up to 8 shades whiter. The results are noticeable after one visit and should last you a few years if you maintain your teeth properly.
