Pros & cons of Teeth Whitening
Advantages:
1. People typically have their teeth whitened to improve their appearance. Whiter teeth are associated with beauty and a healthier lifestyle. In addition, a whiter smile tends to minimize the appearance of facial wrinkles, giving way to a more youthful and energetic appearance.
2. A whiter smile gives people to whom you are speaking a place to focus on and gives you a friendlier appearance.
Disadvantages:
1. Although bleaching is very effective, there can be short term disadvantages, such as sore gums or teeth from the bleach. This disappears when bleach use is discontinued.
2. Some individuals are more chemically sensitive.
3. Some people experience discomfort from wearing the mouth tray.

How does the Zoom! in-office system work?
The Zoom! light activated whitening gel's active ingredient is Hydrogen Peroxide. As the Hydrogen Peroxide is broken down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching colored 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 33% or more, giving an average improvement of eight shades.

HOW ZO0M2 LIGHT ACTIVATION TECHNOLOGY WORKS
 |
The property Zoom2 gel works due to the “photo-fenton”
reaction of peroxide H2O2 and iron Fe3
|
 |
The peroxide reacts with the iron to produce hydroxyl radicals –
“stain terminators”
|
 |
A light reaction cyclically renews the iron so it can continue to
produce hydroxyl radicals – more effectively whitening teeth
