When you notice a gorgeous smile, amongst the list of reasons someone’s grin stands out to you is probably how white and bright their teeth appear. Teeth whitening has become a fairly common cosmetic dental treatment because of how attainable it is, and how drastic the results can be. Yellowing and stains on your teeth are natural signs of aging. A professionally aided whitening treatment can make you appear years younger. Compared to other cosmetic procedures to create a more youthful appearance, teeth whitening is cost-effective and doesn’t require lengthy recoveries or marked discomfort. Today, your Lincolnshire cosmetic dentist, Dr. Brent A. Engelberg, will tell you more about one of the fastest and most effective whitening treatments: Zoom!
Fast Whitening – It’s in the Name
Zoom!® is a teeth bleaching process designed to expediently lighten the dentin and enamel of your teeth. The process includes the extra measure of covering gums to protect them from potential sensitivity that can result with bleaching. Hydrogen peroxide containing gel is next applied to the surfaces of your teeth, which is then exposed to a specialized light containing an infrared filter. The action of the light activates the peroxide in the bleach so that oxygen bubbles are released. This virtually erases the stains on your teeth. However, the internal structure of your teeth will remain healthy and intact. The most incredible part is that the entire process only takes about an hour.
Is Zoom! for Everyone?
Treatment recommendations with any cosmetic dental treatment are going to be individual. Are most people good candidates for Zoom? If you have extrinsic stains from normal living, aging, coffee drinking, wine consumption, tobacco use, etc., but your teeth are otherwise healthy and free of decay, you are probably a fine candidate for Zoom! teeth whitening. Occasionally, stains are so intrinsic that no whitening treatment will work, and porcelain veneers may be recommended by your Lincolnshire dentist.
