Does the New Zoom WhiteSpeed Machine Still Use Gel, or is It Just the Light?

I have heard the new Zoom WhiteSpeed machine creates less sensitivity than the traditional Zoom machine. What I have read online says that "blue light emitting diodes" whiten the teeth.I thought light was used in the traditional machine too. Is a gel still applied to teeth, or is the whitening completely achieved by the lights?

A: It's the gel, not the light, that gets the job done.

There is a great debate out there whether or not the light is even necessary, be it the old light or the new. It's really the gel that's doing the whitening.

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!
