We use the ZOOM 2 CHAIRSIDE
PROCEDURE KIT TWIN PACK in combination with the NEW
ZOOM ADVANCED POWER LIGHT which gives 50% of
patients to B1 whitening or better in three 15
minute sessions with an ENHANCED LIGHT ACTIVATED
FORMULA of 25% Hydrogen Peroxide Gel.
The ZOOM 2 gel works due to the
"photo-fenton" reaction of peroxide and iron. The
peroxide component reacts with the iron to produce
hydroxyl radicals, a.k.a. "stain terminators." The
light reaction cyclically renews the iron, so it
continues to produce hydroxyl radicals,
significantly enhancing whitening results. In a
clinical study, the Zoom Chairside Whitening System
whitened teeth 26% better when the Zoom Lamp was
used versus whitening with the Zoom 2 Chairside Gel
alone. If you've been waiting for the ultimate in
speed and efficacy, the wait is over...
Zoom Advanced raises the bar to a
new level of performance while delivering an average
of eight shades lighter, and sometimes more, in less
than an hour. The new Zoom2 system is: Faster -
Achieve superior results in three 15-minute
sessions. The new system reduces chair-time by 33%
with no compromise in results.
More Effective - The proprietary
light activated Zoom2 gel incorporates patented
Amorphous Calcium Phosphate1 (ACP) technology to
provide superior whitening results. Easier - The new
Precision Light Guide System ensures quick and
consistent patient set-up for optimal whitening
results, while the new locking casters and
ergonomically designed structure make moving and
positioning Zoom2 a snap.
Lower Sensitivity - Reduced contact
time, ACP chemistry, combined with the new Balancing
Agent and Satin Finish, to ensure the lowest
possible discomfort for patients. In fact, Zoom2
patients experience 67% less significant sensitivity
than those treated with the original Zoom System.
frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Zoom! tooth whitening?
A: Zoom! is a bleaching process that
lightens discolouration of enamel and dentin.
Q: What causes tooth discolouration?
A: There are many causes. The most
common include aging and consumption of staining
substances such as coffee, tea, colas, tobacco, red
wine, etc. During tooth formation, consumption of
tetracycline, certain antibiotics or excessive
fluoride may also cause tooth discolouration.
Q: Who may benefit from tooth
whitening?
A: Almost Anyone. However,
treatments may not be as effective for some as it is
for others. Your dental professional can determine
if you are a viable candidate for this procedure
through a thorough oral exam. Including a shade
assessment.
Q: Is whitening safe?
A: Yes. Extensive research and
clinical studies indicate that whitening teeth under
the supervision of a dentist is safe. As with any
tooth whitening product, Zoom! is not recommended
for children under 13 years of age or pregnant or
lactating women.
How long do the results last?
A: By following some simple post
whitening care instructions, your teeth will always
be lighter than they were before. To keep your teeth
looking their best, we recommend flossing, brushing
twice daily, and occasional touch ups with bleaching
trays and gel.
Q: How does the Zoom! In-Office
system work?
A: The Zoom! light activated
whitening gel's active ingredients is hydrogen
peroxide. As the Hydrogen Peroxide is broken down,
oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching
coloured substances while the structure of the tooth
is unchanged. The Zoom! light aids in activating the
hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface
of the tooth. A study has shown that use of the
Zoom! lamp increases the effectiveness of the Zoom!
gel by 26% or more, giving an average improvement of
eight shades.
Q: What does a patient experience
during the Zoom! In-Office Procedure?
A: During the procedure, patients
may comfortably watch television or listen to music.
Individuals with a strong gag reflex or anxiety may
have difficulty undergoing the entire procedure.
Q: Are there any side effects?
A: Sensitivity during the treatment
may occur with some patients. The Zoom! light
generates minimal heat which is the usual source of
discomfort. On rare occasions, minor tingling
sensations are experienced immediately after the
procedure, but always dissipate. |
