Zoom! Teeth Whitening
Proactive Ways to Keep Your Smile Shining
Because our teeth are naturally porous, they are good at becoming discolored and stained. Discoloration over time is almost inevitable, and future whitening treatments will likely be necessary to keep your teeth as white as you would like.
In between whitenings, there are many proactive things you can do to help keep your teeth white:
- Consider a whitening toothpaste.
- Use a straw for drinking.
- Keep your teeth clean.
- Eat more healthy foods like fruits and vegetables.
Things to Avoid If You Don't Want to Stain Your Teeth
Other than dental care and routine visits to the dentist, there are some things you can avoid to help keep your teeth looking pearly white.
If you want to keep your teeth white, avoid:
- Drinking staining beverages like coffee and red wine.
- Smoking, which in addition to staining your teeth, impacts the total health of your mouth.
- Waiting too long to brush after meals. Many foods can cause discoloration and feed the bacteria that cause damage to the enamel, which will diminish the whiteness of the tooth.

In 45 minutes, the Zoom whitening system, together with the Philips Zoom WhiteSpeed LED Accelerator shining on the whitening gel, is clinically proven to whiten your teeth up to 8 shades.
Teeth Whitening Process
During the process, your gums are carefully protected with a special covering, and then Zoom's unique hydrogen peroxide whitening gel is applied. Once on the teeth, hydrogen peroxide breaks down into stain-fighting radicals that break the molecular bonds making up stains, on and in your teeth. The intense light of the Philips Zoom WhiteSpeed Whitening LED Accelerator shining on the whitening gel helps the stain-fighting radicals whiten faster: The Accelerator light increases whitening results by an amazing 40%!

There are so many types of teeth whitening treatments available that it can be a challenge to choose one that produces brilliant results. But we chose to offer KöR Teeth Whitening because we believe that it is the single most effective treatment available today.
Professional Teeth Whitening Options
Other popular teeth whitening products are effective, but they can’t come close to achieving the results you’ll see with KöR. While these treatments can whiten your teeth by about six shades, KöR can transform your smile with results as much as 16 shades lighter.
The reason that KöR can achieve this level of whitening is the revolutionary capabilities of its whitening gel. Other teeth whitening products are not effective for removing deep stains.
KöR was developed to improve the ability of your dental enamel to absorb oxygen. This allows the whitening gel to penetrate deep within your enamel and lift out hard-to-remove stains.
In fact, KöR is so effective that it can even whiten teeth stained by tetracycline use. This is unique to teeth whitening products and has transformed smiles for many people who thought they had to live with dark, stained teeth.
