Zoom Whitening: Q&A

Should I Be Suspicious of a $99 Zoom Denist In-Office Teeth Whitening Offer?

There are a few specials on Groupon and other marketing venues offering Zoom at $99 for Denist In-Office Teeth Whitening. Can you tell me if this sounds realistic and if it can be the entire, full procedure without any short cuts or leaving out a key component (like trays)? If so, how can dentists afford to do this? Also, do you think this low of a price would compromise quality or safety? Thank you!

$99 Zoom whitening

It depends on the dental office. I highly recommend doing some research first by reading online reviews on sites such as Google Local+, Zocdoc, Yelp, etc.... before purchasing any deal. There are many good dental offices looking for ways to introduce themselves to potential new clients, offer good customer service, and make your experience positive. As with anything else, buyer be ware. Regards, Peter Mann DDS see video

You ask if you will get the full service, with no short-cuts, and including the trays for follow up whitening. I doubt it. There are a few offices that CAN deliver what you asked. Occasionally a reputable office will run a promotion to gain a farther reach into their community. In those very limited situations, you could get the full service (I... more

Buyer beware

Hi. The cost of the material to the dentist is somewhere around 100 dollars. This does NOT include the cost of the chair time (usually about an hour of office time). Without going into too much detail I can tell you that no office will ever do any treatment at a financial loss, thereforeI think you can pretty much draw your own conclusion.
