Does Zoom Whitening Ensure Long-Lasting Results?

There's no question that professional teeth whitening offers the potential for results that are superior — in terms of aesthetics and longevity — compared to over-the-counter whitening kits. Still, it is important for patients to have realistic expectations for their Zoom teeth whitening results and understand that a repeat treatment may be needed at some point in the future to maintain a consistently bright, white smile over time. Additionally, proper dental and oral hygiene plays a role in preserving the outcome of your Zoom whitening treatment for as long as possible. Here, Farmingdale, NY Zoom whitening provider Dr. Angela Ferrari of Ferrari & Aldieri Dental Associates outlines some important must-knows about Zoom professional teeth whitening, including how long you can expect your new look to last.

What are my options for professional teeth whitening?

At Ferrari & Aldieri Dental Associates, we are proud to offer a diverse range of professional teeth whitening solutions to help meet the many unique goals, preferences, and needs of our patients. These include:

• Zoom QuickPro for superficial stains
• Zoom WhiteSpeed for superficial and deeper-set stains
• Zoom DayWhite and NiteWhite for at-home professional teeth whitening

During your initial consultation for teeth whitening at our office, Dr. Ferrari will thoroughly examine your teeth to assess the nature, severity, and age of your dental stains, discuss your preferences and goals, and recommend the most appropriate type of dental whitening for you.

How long does Zoom whitening last?

The results of Zoom tooth whitening will vary based on a number of individual case factors, including the nature of the staining, which form of Zoom whitening is used, and others. Generally speaking, Zoom teeth whitening results can last for up to 1 – 2 years with proper aftercare and a healthy dental and oral hygiene regimen. To ensure your Zoom whitening results last for as long as possible, use these helpful Zoom whitening aftercare tips:

• Brush and floss twice daily
• Avoid staining foods and drinks, like tomato sauce, red wine, tea, and coffee
• Rinse after eating or drinking staining foods and drinks
• Do not smoke
• Use a whitening toothpaste if recommended
• Consider at-home Zoom whitening between in-office treatments
• Keep up with your regularly scheduled dental exams and biannual dental cleanings

Can dental restorations be whitened?

Many patients are surprised to learn that dental restorations — like crowns, bridges, and porcelain veneers — cannot be whitened in the same way that natural teeth can. Fortunately, modern dental restorations are designed to be highly stain-resistant, so patients are typically able to enjoy their beautiful smile for decades or longer. If your dental restorations do become damaged, stained, discolored, or otherwise compromised, Dr. Ferrari can discuss available options for dental restoration repair or replacement to restore your smile to your desired shade of white once again.
