Permanent Zoom Teeth Whitening

Will Zoom whitening remove brown stains from the top and bottom of my teeth? Will they start to reappear after a certain amount of time?

A: Zoom Whitening maintenance

How much your teeth stain depends a lot on your diet.  For example, drinking coffee or soda regularly will stain your teeth.   Smoking also stains your teeth.   Brushing your teeth more frequently result in your teeth staining less.  Also seeing your dentist for regular cleanings will remove some of the stains.  I advise patients to use custom made take home trays to maintain their desired tooth shade.  Good Luck!

If I Zoom Whiten my Teeth Before Getting a Crown Will I Have to Always Zoom to Maintain?

Everything I have read says to get Zoom done before my permanent restoration. However, If I do that doesn't that mean I am signing up to do Zoom (or some other strong whitening) for life? Otherwise wouldn't I eventually end up with the super white crown but the rest of my teeth not matching due to naturally occurring stains?

A: You are about to make a big mistake!

Mixing and matching modalities like Zoom and Crowns is always a problem.

The colors will never match exactly and constant touching up of the natural teeth with trays is a pain in the you know what.  Do yourself a favor and seriously consider veneers in conjunction with the crown.  The color will match and you will have a smile you will love!

Blistered Gums from Zoom Whitening?

I had Zoom teeth whitening 3 days ago. Apparently, some solution seeped under the protective gum coating and left a nasty burn on my gums. It now looks like a blister or an ulcer. I've seen this reported by a number of people, but no one ever mentions how long it takes to heal (or if it ever does). Should I be concerned about permanent gum damage? The first picture was taken before, the second picture was taken right after the procedure, and the 3rd picture was ta just now (3 days later).

A: Burned gums from zoom whitening

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been burned.  Although burns can happen on a rare occasion.  This is something that has never happened in our office because we rigorously follow the protocol.  However, the burn will heal on its own.  The oral cavity heals extremely fast.  You may use Vitamin E oil to provide sooth the wound.  If it’s painful taking 400mg advil (2 tablets) is not a bad idea.   All the best, recover quickly.  Good Luck!
