The Process

CONSULTATION

Prior to the Zoom Treatment, a consultation is carried out by one of our GDC dentists. All of our dentists have carried out thousands of teeth whitening treatments, and are subsequently very experienced at assessing suitability for ZOOM teeth whitening.

During the consultation period itself and prior to treatment the dentist will be able to give you a clear indication of what results you can expect..

We do this by measuring the shade of your teeth on the VITA teeth whitening chart and then giving you, an indication of which shade will be achieved after treatment.

TREATMENT

Gums are protected by a gingivital dam barrier, lips and soft tissue protected by a sunblock and a face guard is placed to protect the area around the mouth.
Teeth are then coated with a 6% hydrogen peroxide solution this is the active product that whitens the teeth.

The Zoom Whitespeed Laser is then set which activates the gel and speeds up the whitening process. Zoom Whitespeed works at the most effective wavelength to whiten teeth without causing any damage to teeth or soft tissue.

The process is completed in three, 15-minute cycles. The full session is completed within an hour including consultation, so can be fitted conveniently into your day.

POST PROCEDURE / AFTERCARE

Your teeth whitening results are then measured and recorded using the VITA Chart.

The dentist will advise on post treatment care and how to use the whitening kit to prolong and maximise results (if this is included as part of your package).

For 24 hours post treatment, we recommend that you stick to a none staining food and drink, the ‘White Food Diet’. Good oral hygiene, flossing, an electric toothbrush and regular hygienist appointments will also help to maintain your newly whitened teeth.
