Zoom!™ Teeth Whitening Morgan Hill, CA

Whitening is a bleaching process that reverses the discoloration that comes with age, coffee stains, tobacco stains, etc. While a beautiful bright smile is achieved, no natural tooth structure is lost.

Generally, teeth whitening procedures are successful in about 90 percent of patients, though they may not be an option for everyone. Yellow-ish hued teeth will probably bleach well, brownish-colored teeth may bleach less well, and grayish-hued teeth may not bleach well at all.

Likewise, if you have had dental bonding or tooth-colored fillings placed in your front teeth, whitening may not enhance your smile as the whitener does not affect the color of these materials.

There are two types of whitening available, in-office and in-home. We offer Zoom!™ Whitening as our in-office option of choice. It takes about an hour and can brighten your teeth up eight shades whiter. The process is safe and effective and the results are immediate.

The Zoom!™ Whitening procedure

• It begins with a short preparation covering your lips and gums so that only your teeth are exposed.
• From there, the whitening gel is applied.
• A Zoom!™ light is then directed at the teeth to penetrate the stains and safely remove the discoloration.
• The gel and light are applied three times.

In about 45 minutes, you’ll emerge from Santa Teresa Dental with a spectacular smile.

By following some simple post whitening care instructions, your teeth will always be lighter than they were before.

To keep your teeth looking their best, we recommend flossing, brushing twice daily and occasional touch-ups with Day White whitening gels. These are professional formula products designed specifically to keep your teeth their brightest.
