Teeth Whitening
what is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening involves bleaching the teeth to lighten their colour. After treatment, the teeth look a few shades whiter.
Teeth whitening is an cosmetic procedure which it is very rarely a necessity.
Whitening products typically use the chemicals hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. Only registered dental practitioners can legally use the most concentrated which is most effective and provide whitening solutions.
The bleach soaks through the tooth’s enamel top layer and into the dentine, the main part of the inside of the tooth which is slightly softer than the enamel. The bleach reacts with the coloured molecules that cause discolouration. The dentine then becomes lighter and the teeth look whiter. Bleach can also make the enamel surface more reflective, which looks whiter too.

How does it work?
When you decide to use Zoom Teeth Whitening through a dentist from SMILEE Dental, we will carefully protect your gums with a specially designed covering. Our dentists will then apply the Zoom whitening gel, which will immediately start breaking down the compounds that are staining your teeth. To speed up your whitening procedure, your dentist will then ‘activate’ the gel using the Zoom WhiteSpeed Whitening LED Accelerator.
Will it hurt?
When you choose Zoom Teeth Whitening, not only will you get a healthier, whiter smile without the use of needles, if you have sensitive teeth, they will be further protected from pain thanks to the inclusion of ACP(amorphous calcium phosphate – a compound that is clinically proven to reduce tooth sensitivity). No other whitening product contains this compound so Zoom is a particularly good choice if you suffer from sensitive teeth.
