Zoom Teeth Whitening as defined by a South East London dentist

Zoom Teeth Whitening is a cosmetic procedure to whiten the teeth quickly and efficiently; says a South East London dentist. The method is widely used to great effect and is applied by a technician rather than a dentist. It is a purely cosmetic thing though and won’t straighten or repair damaged teeth. It is just a way of whitening teeth that have been discoloured by excessive use of tobacco and red wine, and also usually a lack of regular brushing. It cannot be used on teeth that have diseased gums around them; Gingivitis is a no-no for this method as it exposes the part of the tooth it protects. After an initial consultation the technician will apply a gel to the teeth, and then put a soft shield in your mouth to protect the fleshy parts of it, including the lips and your tongue. Then a light is beamed onto the gel and it reacts to break down and eliminate the discoloured parts. The whole procedure is done in around an hour, and the results are almost instant, the preparation takes about 10 minutes, then the session is broken into three 15 minute parts. It is painless although slightly uncomfortable as your mouth is held open to maximise the light beams effects, you can listen to music or even watch a screen if you wish. It isn’t expensive and can often cost just a couple of hundred pounds, there are restrictions on what you can eat and drink for a while afterwards. If all the advice is strictly adhered to then the client can enjoy a long period of lovely white teeth. It is widely available and some technicians even do home visits, although many people get their Zoom Smile during a lunch break at a salon near their work place.
