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.

Naturally occurring latex has been linked in recent years to allergic reactions in people who use such products as latex gloves. The proteins in the latex, which can also become airborne, can cause problems in vulnerable people such as breathing problems and contact dermatitis. Some allergic reactions, including anaphylactic shock, have been more severe.

Many health experts have rightly attributed the dramatic increase of allergic reactions to latex in the health care community to the increased use of gloves and other personal protection equipment in light of the AIDS epidemic.

Latex is a pervasive substance in many household items-from toys and balloons to rubber bands and condoms.

Latex allergies could cause the following symptoms:
  • Dry skin
  • Hives
  • Low blood pressure
  • Nausea
  • Respiratory problems
  • Tingling sensations
People with high-risk factors for latex allergy include those who have undergone multiple surgical operations, have spina bifida, or are persistently exposed to latex products.

If you are vulnerable to latex or have allergies related to it, please notify our office and, by all means, seek medical attention from your family physician.
