If you’re unsatisfied with the stains on your teeth, consider undergoing a Zoom! whitening treatment. The Zoom! system is faster and less invasive than any other professional whitening treatment on the market. A single treatment only takes one hour and can leave you with that bright, white smile you’ve always wanted. Before you contact your local dental office, keep reading to learn about how the Zoom! Whitening System works.
What is the Zoom! Whitening System?
The Zoom! Whitening System is a revolutionary whitening system that was designed to provide faster, whiter results. The Zoom! treatment involves a specially-designed gel formula and an ultraviolet light that can penetrate deeply-rooted dental stains that are often caused by coffee, tea, wine, smoking, and tarter buildup.
How Does Zoom! Work?
To begin the Zoom! whitening treatment, the dentist places lip and gum protectors around the mouth to protect sensitive tissues from the Ultraviolet heat. Next, he or she applies the Zoom! gel to the surface of the teeth. Then, the dentist positions the Zoom! ultraviolet light over the teeth to activate the bleaching agent within the gel. Throughout the procedure, the dentist returns every 15 minutes to apply a new layer of the Zoom! gel. Finally, after just 45 minutes, the teeth are brilliantly whiter.
Who is a Good Candidate for the Zoom! Whitening System?
This procedure can benefit anyone who is dissatisfied with the color of their teeth. People who smoke or drink dark beverages every day are typically the most in need of professional teeth whitening treatments. However, any measure of teeth stains can be embarrassing and cause low self-esteem. Therefore, consult your dentist about the Zoom! Whitening System to improve the appearance of your smile.
To schedule your Zoom! Whitening treatment, call Personal Dental Office at (323) 302-5794. We’re a multi-specialty dental practice offering preventative, cosmetic, sedation, and surgical dentistry. We take every smile seriously and aim to make our patient’s feel relaxed throughout treatment.

The Invisalign system was first introduced to the market in 1998 by Align Technology, which is now considered one of the world’s most advanced manufacturing operations.
In this video, we take a closer look at how Invisalign aligners are created to meet the specific needs of each individual patient. The process begins with a manual impression of the teeth, which is then scanned into a computer and digitized where the virtual treatment plan can be created. The molds are then placed on an assembly line where they are tailored to the patient’s orthodontic specifications. Check out this full clip for more information on the creation process.
