Teeth cleaning prior to Zoom whitening
Your teeth should be free of tartar, plaque, and stain that can be removed by a hygienist prior to Zoom whitening. Keeping your teeth clean and tartar-free is important to preserve your gum health even without considering whitening, and will help keep your smile looking great!

Teeth cleaning prior to zoom whitening
Simple answer is YES. Tarter, plaque, calculus can cover your teeth and prevent the gel from working. You do not want to have your teeth cleaned and whitened in the same day they will be very sensitive.

Clean Your Teeth Before Zoom Whitening
YES. If there is any accumulation of plaque or tartar (calculus) on your teeth, the actual enamel will not be reached by the Zoom whitening gel. However, it is preferable to have the cleaning done at least 24-hours prior to the whitening, in case there is any bleeding of the gums.
