“Zoom - Worth It!”

I was extremely hesitant to go through with Zoom as planned after reading all of the horror stories online. The worst part of the entire process was lying there waiting for the pain and agony to begin. It never did. What I've learned is that you should have this procedure done by a trusted dentist - not a hygienist or assistant.

My dentist took great care to ensure my lips and gums were completely protected. I never felt any discomfort during the 3 20-minute sessions. Well, sitting there for over an hour without being able to move was a bit uncomfortable. Almost 24 hours later, I have had very little sensitivity of the teeth--just a little twinge from time to time. My dentist put on a fluoride sealant after the procedure to help with the sensitivity--it must have worked. Bottom line, if you don't know the person doing the procedure, I wouldn't try it. But if you have a dentist you trust, then go for it. It really works if done correctly!
