Zoom Whitening and Teeth Whitening

Can you tell me the difference between zoom whitening and teeth whitening? Which one is better?

Cassie W.- Dallas, TX

Cassie,

The only difference between the two methods of whitening your teeth is mostly with the time it takes.  Zoom whitening is done in-office. It is completed in one appointment during several cycles. The dentist will use a special light to activate the whitening gel and make it work faster.

Regular teeth whitening is done in the privacy of your own home. You’ll wear special bleaching trays that contain a whitening gel for at least 20 minutes a day.  It will take several weeks up to a few months to get the level of whitening you want.

Both methods will whiten your teeth very effectively.  Zoom whitening costs more than at-home whitening.

Fastest Teeth Whitening

Are some whitening brands more effective than others? I want to get my teeth whitened very quickly for a special engagement I have in a few weeks.

Brandi,

I would recommend for you to get Zoom Whitening. It uses a special light that activates a powerful bleaching gel. This enables you to get your teeth whitened in just one appointment. Dentists vary in the amount of time for that appointment, but you can generally have it done between one to two hours. At the end of your appointment, you’ll have dazzlingly white teeth.
