Philips Zoom!®
Philips Zoom!® is produced by Discus Dental™ in Beverly Hills, the top manufacturer of safe, effective teeth whitening systems. Zoom!® is an in-office whitening treatment that can make your teeth up to eight shades whiter in one 60-minute treatment. Before beginning any whitening treatment, Dr. Hochfelder will perform a thorough cleaning, removing all plaque and tartar. Then he will apply a hydrogen peroxide gel to your teeth, carefully avoiding the sensitive gum tissue. The gel also contains a desensitizing agent to protect enamel and minimize discomfort. The dentist will train a special light on your teeth to activate the whitening agent in the gel, allowing it to chemically break down the stains on your teeth.
NiteWhite®
At-home NiteWhite® treatment, also produced by Discus Dental™, is an equally effective teeth whitening method. After your thorough cleaning, Dr. Hochfelder will take impressions of your teeth. Those impressions are then used to pour up models to create custom fitting trays similar to the aligner trays used in Invisalign® treatment. These trays will fit comfortably around your teeth, and you will fill them with a hydrogen peroxide-based whitening gel. You will wear these trays every night for one to two weeks or as instructed by Dr. Hochfelder.
At your initial consultation, we will help you decide which whitening method is correct for you. Because both ways produce similar results, your decision will be based on personal preferences, schedule, and budget. NiteWhite® treatment typically costs less. However, you may prefer the more immediate results of the Zoom!® treatment.
