How To Use Zoom Teeth Whitening?Īll take-home Philips Zoom Whitening products are very easy to use. Each syringe in Zoom whitening kit contains enough gel to be applied 6 times on one dental arch. That way its contact with your teeth is firm throughout entire whitening session. So, each time you put the gel in the whitening trays, it is completely fresh and ready to whiten your teeth with its maximum power.Īlso, the gel has high viscosity. On the top of the syringe there is auto mixing nozzle which mixes these two types of gel in the moment of use. The main ingredients that whiten are Carbamide Peroxide in Nite White and Hydrogen Peroxide in Day White. It is important that these two mineral be separated so the gel does not lose its bleaching strength when you once open the syringe. These minerals are responsible for starting the chemical reaction which whitens teeth. One contains calcium, and the other contains phosphates.

In each whitening syringe there are two barrels full of two types of gels. As an other at-home alternative you can try whitening strips for some good cost effective results. You only have an option after each 15 minutes session to check in the mirror if the teeth colors match and then stop the procedure (if it wasn’t already too late). So after the procedure, the difference between the color of your natural and artificial teeth can be very visible. This gel must be efficient to fully whiten you teeth in approximately only one hour. That is because the strength of the chair side whitening gel used in office is very high (35%/44% Hydrogen Peroxide). But, if you decide to do in office Zoom whitening, you should know that there is a possibility that, after the procedure is done, you may need to replace some of your dental restorations (white fillings, crowns, bridges etc.), especially on the front teeth. For best results, start with whitening after you visit your dental hygienist for regular cleaning! Zoom Whitening GelĬhair side bleaching (in the dental office) has the advantage that can whiten your teeth up to 8 shades brighter, while at home bleach can get them up to 6 shades lighter. Because at home Zoom whitening process is slow (up to two weeks by comparison to in office method which lasts for about an hour) to achieve wanted color of your natural teeth, you can easily match their color with the color of your dental work (so you do not need to replace it!). In case you decide to do at home whitening by yourself, great thing is that Zoom offers 3 types of gels each with different strength ( 8% HP (∼22% CP), 9.5% and 14% HP). Usually in time, natural teeth turn yellow, while artificial ones retain similar color as it was when they were set.
