ZOOMZoom2 is a light assisted tooth whitening system for use in lightening discolored teeth. Zoom2 is intended only for in-office use by a dental professional.

On the first visit the chair side assistant will find your existing shade. Together you will discuss whether or not Zoom2 is right for you and how it works. If you decide it is right for you, an impression of your teeth will be taken so we can provide you with your own take home whitening trays.

At your next visit we will use our state of the art Zoom2 system to whiten your teeth. For the best results you should have a professional cleaning within the last 6 months. If hard tarter is on the teeth bleach will not be able to whiten those areas. We will end your visit with take home whitening trays, a custom case to hold your trays when not in use, as well as a complimentary tube of bleach for continuing whitening or touch ups.

After your visit you will need to be aware of staining. For the next 48hours you will need to avoid any staining foods such as Coffee, Dark Soft drinks, Blueberries etc. Your teeth will be more succeptable to staining during this time. Keep this in mind when making your appointment.

People who grind their teeth can sometimes develop a serious problem with their jaw, which left untreated, can adversely affect the teeth, gums and bone structures of the mouth.

One of the most common jaw disorders is related to a problem with the temporomandibular joint, the joint that connects your lower jaw to your skull, and allows your upper and lower jaw to open and close and facilitates chewing and speaking.

People with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) often have a clicking or popping sound when opening and closing their mouths. Such disorders are often accompanied by frequent headaches, neck aches, and in some cases, tooth sensitivity.

Some treatments for TMD include muscle relaxants, aspirin, biofeedback, or wearing a small plastic appliance in the mouth during sleep.

Minor cases of TMD involve discomfort or pain in the jaw muscles. More serious conditions involve improperly aligned joints or dislocated jaws. The most extreme form of TMD involves an arthritic condition of the jaw joint. Traumatic injuries also can cause jaw dislocation.

In these cases, jaw surgery, may be required to correct the condition. Some jaw surgery can be performed arthroscopically.
