    Will I get a burn from Zoom whitening if I'm taking Cipro?

    I’m scheduled to do Zoom Whitening next week and I’m wondering if I need to cancel it.  I have been taking Cipro (ciprofloxacin) for a week now to treat a UTI. The infection has mostly cleared up and I feel good, but the doctor told me to stay on it for 14 days. I went…

    Zoom whitening made my teeth look worse!

    I recently got my braces off and have very noticeable white spots on my front teeth. My dentist recommended Zoom whitening, so I tried it. I could tell right away that the spots looked even worse, but he said I just needed to wait a few days for the color to even out. It’s been…

    Does the blue light in Zoom whitening do anything?

    I recently had Zoom Whitening done and my dental office made a big deal about preparing me for the blue light. I’m thrilled with the results and my teeth have never been brighter, but I was talking with my boyfriend after the procedure and he laughed it off. He said that the blue light is…

    My dentist won't use Zoom… can I buy it and use it on my own?

    Over the last year, I have gone through a personal transformation of sorts. I’ve lost nearly 100 pounds and I feel great. Now I’d like to tackle my smile. I’ve always wanted to have a bright, white beautiful smile like the ones I see on those makeover shows. When I went to my dentist to…

    Had Zoom Whitening… will my teeth darken to match crown over time?

    I had Zoom Whitening done in preparation for a crown I needed. My dentist told me that if I ever wanted to brighten my smile, now was the time to do it, because the crown’s color couldn’t be change afterwards. The tooth isn’t visible all the time. It’s on my top, but two spaces over…

    Is it True That Ancient Egyptians Whitened Teeth with Urine?

    I’m trying to come up with low-cost ways to bleach my teeth so I don’t have to get Zoom whitening done at my dental office. I know it sounds gross, but I swear I heard that people in Egypt used to use urine to make their teeth whiter. Is this true? If so, is it…

    Is my 11-year-old too young for Zoom whitening?

    This may sound like a terrible question, but I’m not one of “those” moms. My daughter is 11 and wants to have Zoom whitening done and I support her in it. If it was for vanity’s sake, I might be a little hesitant, but her teeth are kind of yellowish, and her regular cleanings don’t…

    I shop at the mall, why not whiten my teeth there, too?!

    I wanted to get my teeth bleached, but I called around to a few offices and it’s out of my budget. A few of them said they’d give me stuff to use at home for a couple hundred bucks, and the offices that did Zoom whitening charged much more. I’ve been checking out a place…

    What Should I Do About Painful Gums After Zoom Whitening?

    I had Zoom whitening done yesterday. While they were doing it, I could feel my gums tingling a bit and I told the assistant. She messed with it a bit, but I’m not sure what she did. The discomfort reduced, but never went away altogether. All though the night, my gums really started to hurt…

    Zoom whitening made my white spots look worse

    My teeth have always had little white spots on them, and I was hoping that having them bleached would make them less noticeable. I talked to my dentist about Zoom whitening and decided to have it done, but I am utterly disappointed with the results. Instead of hiding the white spots, they are even brighter.…
