Zoom teeth whitening results before and after
Zoom in-office whitening uses peroxide gel to lighten natural tooth color, but the result depends on the starting shade and type of stain.
How much can professional whitening change your tooth colour?
Zoom in-office whitening uses peroxide gel to lighten natural tooth color, but the result depends on the starting shade and type of stain.
Which tooth surfaces can peroxide whitening actually lighten?
The gel acts mainly on color molecules in enamel and dentin, not fillings, crowns, veneers, or bonding. Before-and-after photos are useful only when lighting, dryness, camera exposure, and shade matching are controlled.
What happens during a planned professional whitening session?
A dentist checks for decay, cracks, gum disease, exposed roots, and restorations, records a shade, protects the gingiva, and applies gel in planned cycles. Follow aftercare instructions while sensitivity is present.
When should you have an examination before whitening?
Have an examination before whitening if you have untreated decay, inflamed gums, marked sensitivity, or visible restorations. Contact the office for severe or persistent sensitivity, gum irritation, or an uneven result.
What should you ask about stains, shades and sensitivity?
Ask which stains should respond, whether restorations need separate treatment, how sensitivity is managed, and how photos are standardized.
Frequently asked questions
Will whitening change crowns or veneers?
No. They do not bleach like natural enamel, so color matching should be discussed first.
Why can photos look different?
Lighting, tooth dehydration, camera exposure, and shade guides alter apparent color.
