Almost anyone. However, teeth whitening may not be as effective or some as it is for others. We can determine if you are a viable candidate for ZOOM 2 Teeth Whitening through a thorough oral exam, including a teeth shade assessment.
Do many people whiten their teeth?
More people whiten their teeth than you might imagine. A bright, sparkling smile can make a big difference for everyone. The ZOOM 2 Teeth Whitening System makes it easier and faster than ever before.
How does the ZOOM 2 Teeth Whitening In-Office System work?
The ZOOM 2 light-activated teeth whitening gel’s active ingredient is Hydrogen Peroxide. As the Hydrogen Peroxide gel is broken down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching colored substances while the structure of the tooth is unchanged. The ZOOM 2 teeth whitening light aids in activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface of the tooth.
What does a patient experience during the ZOOM 2 Teeth Whitening procedure?
During the teeth whitening procedure, patients may comfortably watch television or listen to music. We offer blankets, pillows back massagers, etc. for your comfort.
Are there any side effects to ZOOM 2 Whitening?
With teeth whitening some people experience temporary increased tooth sensitivity to cold during treatment. These symptoms disappear within 1-3 days after completion of the teeth whitening treatment.

The ZOOM 2 teeth whitening procedure requires that all soft tissue in and around the mouth be protected. The clinician is required to monitor the procedure to insure any exposed skin or tissue is isolated and protected. Protective eyewear is required during the procedure. Light sensitive individuals including those undergoing PUVA (Psoralen+UV Radiation) therapy or other photo-chemotherapy, as well as patients with melanoma, should not undergo the ZOOM Teeth Whitening procedure. Also patients taking light sensitive drugs or substances, should consult their physician prior to ZOOM 2 Teeth Whitening.
