Zoom whitening for discolored teeth?
I have always have some discoloration on my teeth since I was little. My mother said it might have been from some type of medication I took. Anyways, I want to get the Zoom whitening treatment, but I'm nervous it will only make it worse. The discoloration isn't major, although sometimes it's more noticeable than others.

If you have discolorayion from tetracylcine, whitening may mildly show some improvement and will not worsen it. Your best bet is to try the Zoom whitening and if it doesnt work as well as you want you can do veneers on the front two teeth.
