Zoom!® Laser Teeth Whitening Clinic

Improve the appearance of your smile with the help of Zoom!® laser teeth whitening. This teeth whitening solution is safe to use and very minimally-invasive. It uses a more powerful whitening agent to provide you with longer-lasting and visible results without a lengthy procedure.

Zoom! begins with the placement of a gum guard in your mouth to protect your gums and lips from the whitening gel. After your dentist applies the gel to each of your teeth, they are exposed to the Zoom!® LED accelerator for about 15 minutes. The gel is reapplied and the whole process is repeated a few more times (about 3-4).

You can see immediate results following the teeth whitening process which may take up to 90 minutes to complete.

Custom take-home whitening trays

Custom-fitted teeth whitening solutions made by our dentist allows for it to properly sit in your mouth to avoid any leakages, irritations to your gums, as well as your teeth not completely going through the whitening process.

An advantage this process has to the Zoom!® whitening system is that this procedure can be done by yourself, at home. This process may take an average of two weeks to see significant improvements to the appearance of your teeth. It can also be used as a touch-up for in-office teeth whitening.

Work with our dentists to choose a teeth whitening solution that is the best suited for your needs.
