The goal of cosmetic dentistry is to improve the function,appearance and health of the patient's teeth and its surrounding structures.One procedure which improves the appearance of the teeth is teeth whitening.
Teeth Whitening procedure is where the dentist will remove dental stains or discolorations by bleaching and laser tooth whitening. Zoom tooth whitening uses bleaching to remove discoloration.
Zoom Tooth whitening is a procedure done in the dental clinic to eliminate or minimize tooth discoloration.It became popular all over the world specially in the United States .The teeth whitening costs from $400 to $900.And whitening cost can still go up if there is a need for dental fillings and oral prophylaxis. First the dentist will do an oral examination to the patient.Any cavities especially found on labial surfaces of the teeth needs to be filled if not permanently then at least temporarily.Oral prophylaxis is needed if there are tartar or calculus.Polishing of the teeth removes plaques not removed during tooth brushing.This will make the zoom tooth whitener more effective.The zoom whitening gel is applied only to the tooth surfaces.Once exposed to the zoom light,it is activated to start the zoom whitening procedure.The teeth whitening procedure may last from 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on the degree of tooth discoloration.The patient is informed not to eat or drink food that could stain the teeth.Like tomato sauce,red wine,tea,coffee and to avoid smoking for at least 2 hours.The zoom whitening procedure may need to be repeated after 4 to 6 months depending on the recurrence of the stains.A Zoom whitening kit could be used by the patient at home like the Night White ACP Zoom kit.It is a home maintenance kit.
Tooth sensitivity is a common problem after zoom tooth whitening.The use of fluoride like Fluoridex Daily Defense 2 X a day 2 weeks before the procedure helps prevent tooth sensitivity.The fluoride application can be continued even after the teeth bleaching.Sometimes old composite fillings may need to be replaced using a shade similar to the new lighter shade of the newly bleached teeth.This is usually done 2 weeks after the zoom tooth whitening.Stinging pain on the gums are due to leak of bleaching gel to the soft tissue.This is avoided by using the zoom liquidam properly.
If you read some of the zoom tooth whitening reviews,there are people who were satisfied while others were unhappy.It is because zoom tooth whitening is more effective in eliminating yellow and brown discolorations but only to a certain degree for grayish discolorations.An informed patient at the very start will have realistic expectations about the outcome of the procedure therefor avoiding disappointments.
