How does professional peroxide whitening work?
Philips Zoom is a professional tooth-whitening system that uses peroxide gel, with the dentist selecting the procedure and exposure for your teeth.
What happens to stains during in-office whitening?
In-office whitening uses a peroxide-based gel to oxidise some stain molecules within enamel and dentine. “14” may refer to a product, shade, or search label, so the exact kit and protocol must be confirmed rather than assumed from the name alone.
What does the clinician check before whitening treatment?
The clinician examines teeth and gums, records the starting shade, treats active decay or gum inflammation, protects soft tissues, and applies the chosen gel according to its instructions. Existing fillings, crowns, and veneers do not whiten like natural tooth tissue.
When should teeth and gums be assessed before whitening?
Have an assessment before whitening if you have sensitivity, cavities, exposed roots, cracked enamel, gum disease, or restorations in the smile line. Contact the clinic for severe or persistent pain after treatment.
Which whitening method and maintenance plan suit you?
Ask which Philips Zoom product is being used, whether your restorations will match afterward, how sensitivity will be managed, and what maintenance plan fits your staining pattern.
Frequently asked questions
Does Philips Zoom whiten crowns?
No. Whitening changes natural tooth tissue, not ceramic, porcelain, or resin restorations.
Why can teeth feel sensitive afterward?
Peroxide can temporarily irritate dentine pathways, especially when enamel is thin or roots are exposed.
