How Philips Zoom® Teeth Whitening Works
A relaxed, clinically supervised in-office experience from start to finish:
01
Gums & Lip Shielding
We apply a protective barrier film over your lips and soft gums so only tooth enamel receives gel exposure.
02
Zoom® Hydrogen Peroxide Gel
Proprietary hydrogen peroxide formula is carefully painted across the front surfaces of your visible smile.
03
Blue LED Light Activation Cycles
The Zoom® blue LED light illuminates the gel to speed up stain oxidation. Repeated up to 4 fifteen-minute cycles.
04
Anti-Sensitivity Relief Protocol
After the final cycle, we seal teeth with Relief® ACP desensitizing gel to instantly rehydrate enamel and block nerve sensitivity.
Enamel Science
What Causes Tooth Staining and Discoloration?
Outer enamel is naturally translucent, covering the yellow dentin below. As enamel thins or absorbs pigments, discoloration occurs:
Factor 02
Tobacco & Nicotine Use
Tar and nicotine create stubborn brown and yellow surface deposits that toothbrushing cannot shift.
Factor 03
Aging & Enamel Thinning
As enamel wears down over time, the naturally darker, yellow dentin layer beneath becomes visible.
Factor 04
Medications & Dental Trauma
Tetracycline exposure during tooth formation, nerve trauma, or legacy amalgam fillings.
Whitening Consultation
Who Is a Good Candidate for Professional Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening may be an option if you want to brighten the shade of your natural teeth or reduce visible staining associated with coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco, and other everyday pigments.
Whitening agents work on natural tooth structure but do not change the shade of porcelain crowns, veneers, or composite restorations. If you already have dental restorations, experience tooth sensitivity, or are unsure what is causing discoloration, an evaluation before whitening helps determine the appropriate approach.
Natural Teeth
Whitening is designed to brighten natural tooth structure and visible discoloration.
Existing Restorations
Crowns, veneers, and composite restorations do not change shade with whitening agents.
Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Whitening
How long do Zoom® teeth whitening results last?
Results typically last between 1 and 4 years. You can maximize longevity by maintaining good oral hygiene, using a straw for dark drinks like coffee, and utilizing custom home touch-up trays occasionally.
Can dental crowns, composite fillings, or porcelain veneers be whitened?
No. Professional whitening agents only act on natural tooth enamel and dentin. They will not alter the shade of porcelain crowns, veneers, or composite restorations. We recommend whitening prior to placing new cosmetic work so ceramics can match your new bright shade.
How does in-office Zoom® compare to store-bought whitening strips?
Store-bought strips contain very weak peroxide concentrations and fit loosely over teeth, often leading to splotchy results or gum irritation. Clinical Zoom® uses potent, regulated gels and custom barrier technology under dentist supervision for dramatic, uniform shade transformation.
Is Philips Zoom® teeth whitening available in Tribeca, NYC?
Yes. Tribeca Dental Studio offers Philips Zoom® in-office teeth whitening at 54 Warren Street in Tribeca, Lower Manhattan, along with custom take-home whitening options. During your consultation, our dental team can review your current tooth shade, existing restorations, and sensitivity concerns before selecting a whitening approach.
How long does Philips Zoom® in-office teeth whitening take?
Philips states that Zoom® WhiteSpeed can produce noticeable whitening during approximately 45 minutes of treatment. The complete appointment may take longer because preparation, protection of the gums and soft tissues, evaluation, and post-treatment care are also part of the visit.
Can I get professional teeth whitening if I have sensitive teeth?
Temporary tooth sensitivity can occur with whitening procedures. If you already have sensitive teeth, let our dental team know before treatment. We can evaluate your sensitivity and discuss appropriate in-office or take-home whitening options along with measures intended to improve comfort.
