I see patients every day asking me which teeth whitening product they should use. You greet the world with your smile, and my patients want to put their best self forward with a confident beautiful smile.
As a society, we are far more conscious how white our smiles are than any time before us. This has made teeth whitening a big business which several players vying for your money offering this or that and a beautiful smile if you just use their product.
However, most teeth whitening products are simply not worth your trouble. They do not offer the benefits you get with professional, in-office whitening products such as the Zoom! Teeth Whitening. If you want whiter teeth, you need to see me or your own dentist. No one else can give you the smile you want.
Why You Need Professional Teeth Whitening for Your Smile
People want whiter teeth for many reasons. Some were born with yellow or darkened teeth and need natural teeth whitening treatments to appear normal. Some want to improve their social life. Others work in industries that require the most beautiful and whitest smiles just to get in the door. Once you understand why you want them, you can see your dentist for your teeth whitening options.
Many people go straight to the over-the-counter at-home teeth whitening kits you see everywhere. They believe these kits are cheaper and more effective than seeing a dentist. They bought into the lies the manufacturers of these products claim in their advertisings, and often learn the expensive truth too late. These do not work nearly as well as in-office procedures.
You may be able to use these at-home kits for small jobs such as getting your teeth white enough for an impromptu night on the town, but, if you really want perfectly white teeth, you need to see your dentist to see immediate, lasting results.
As a dentist, I can evaluate your teeth and advise you on which treatment would work best for you. I can also monitor you for any side effects and other risks to your teeth from the whitening process. At home, you do not have this immediate care, and teeth whitening can make your teeth brittle if you don’t do t properly.
With in-office whitening, you will leave the office with a brand new whiter smile. You could use one of those home kits to keep your smile white, but you need a dentist to get you there in the first place.
Why Zoom! Teeth Whitening?
In my practice, I have natural teeth whitening treatments for every condition. Some of these products have been around for years, and it shows. I can use the BriteSmile bleaching system and a laser to get deep whitening results. I can use the hydrogen peroxide Opalescence Boost or the Sapphire Professional Whitening system, and drop the laser for sensitive patients. But, I generally prefer the Philips Zoom Chairside Whitening system for my patients.
The Philips Zoom Chairside Whitening system combines both the laser and hydrogen peroxide bleach to whiten teeth with the deepness of BrightSmile and the sensitivity of Opalescence Boost in a single treatment.
The system accelerates the bleaching using the Zoom Advanced Power Chairside Lamp in three 15-minute intervals. I then apply a sensitivity-reducing fluoride paste immediately after the third bleach application. My patients leave my office with a Zoom! home-use touch-up kit complete with custom-fitted whitening trays that they know will give them the results they deserve: brighter, healthier smiles. The entire procedure takes less than an hour!
The Philips Zoom system is the most requested professional whitening treatment in the world, and you can only get it from your dentist. The procedure whitens your teeth by 8 shades during each application.
It’s also the safest treatment available. Other products can harm your teeth and gums, but the Zoom actually improves enamel health and luster.
If you desire whiter, healthier looking teeth, you should ask your dentist if he or she offer Zoom, or you can just stop by my office for a consultation. The Philips Zoom comes in different treatment types and strengths to fit your lifestyle and sensitivity.
