ZOOM! TEETH WHITENING IN WAPPINGERS FALLS

What causes teeth to discolor? There are many causes of tooth discoloration. Some of the most common include the consumption of highly colored foods and drinks (berries, coffee tea, red wine). Some medications, aging, smoking and trauma can also cause teeth discoloration.

What is Zoom! professional teeth whitening and how does it work?

Zoom! is the trade name of the teeth whitening kit that we use at Mel Mel Dental. Here are the steps in the procedure:

  • Your dentist pours gel containing hydrogen peroxide in upper and lower mouth trays and places them in your mouth.
  • He/she shines a laser light on your teeth to activate the gel.
  • You remain in the dental chair for up to one hour.
  • The hydrogen peroxide breaks down and changes the dentin in your teeth a bright white color.
  • He/she removes the trays and rinses the solution off your teeth.

Your teeth could be up to several times brighter by the end of the procedure.  Zoom! whitening treatments help to reduce existing stains, but through consumption of coffee, soft drinks or just through natural aging, your teeth may eventually become discolored again. Maintenance whitening can help discolored again. Maintenance whitening can help combat recurring discoloration. Only Zoom! take-home whitening products include ACP, which has been shown to help reduce fade-back. If you’re ready to change your smile, call 845.632.6613 to request an appointment.
