Zoom! Teeth Whitening in Houston, TX

Dazzling, whiter teeth are quickly achieved with the Zoom! WhiteSpeed system. Our in-office Zoom! whitening procedure is clinically proven to whiten teeth up to 8 shades in one simple appointment. A special light source is used to activate the hydrogen peroxide whitening gel that is applied to the teeth. The process allows the hydrogen peroxide to remove stains from the enamel and dentin quickly and safely without disturbing the rest of the tooth structure. The treatment is perfect for removing stains caused by common foods, drinks, and tobacco products. To prolong the look of whiter teeth, there are various at-home treatments that can be used in conjunction with Zoom.

Philips Zoom! White Speed is an in-office laser treatment that uses a laser to activate a specially-formulated whitening gel. The gums are first protected from the gel with a special barrier. Then, the whitening gel is then applied to the teeth and the laser to breaks down the stains that have diminished teeth’s whiteness. The entire process takes around 45 minutes and patients immediately notice that their teeth are several shades whiter after just one treatment. Subsequent treatments could be needed to maintain whiteness.

Compared to over-the-counter whitening products and professional home whitening treatments, the results of laser treatments last the longest at 3 – 4 years. In some cases, results can last more than 5 years. Patients should follow a good home health oral care routine, including brushing at least twice a day, flossing, and using mouthwash. Additionally, patients should continue to visit their dentist twice a year for a professional dental cleaning and tooth polishing.

For in-office lasers, the price could be between $500 and $1,000 when performed by a reputable dentist. While the cost is higher than at home treatments, laser teeth whitening produces better results, lasts longer, and works faster.

Anyone who looks in the mirror or at pictures of themselves and notices a duller, more yellow smile than they would like, is a candidate for laser teeth whitening. You can schedule a consultation with the dentist to discuss your options and develop your teeth whitening plan for a brighter, more confident smile.
