Zoom! in Clearwater FL

The Zoom Whitening procedure is simple and painless.

For in-office whitening, we recommend patients start with a cleaning. Next, we prepare the mouth for the whitening procedure by isolating the lips and gums. The proprietary Zoom Whitening gel is applied to the teeth, which is activated by a specially designed light.

Teeth typically become at least six to ten shades whiter – sometimes more! A five-minute fluoride treatment completes the procedure. You will be amazed at the results. In most cases, your teeth will continue to whiten in the first few days following the procedure.

Take Home Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening in the comfort of your home may be the perfect solution for your needs, especially for minor staining or darkening of the teeth with age.

Dr. Radosavljevic can prepare a take-home teeth whitening kit which will include custom-fit bleaching trays and professional whitening gels that will slowly whiten your teeth over a period of 1-2 weeks.

The custom fit trays will ensure an even distribution of the bleaching agent and minimal gum irritation. They will be used daily for a specified period of time as recommended by Dr. Radosavljevic.

Teeth Whitening FAQs

How does professional teeth bleaching compare to over the counter options?

There are many over the counter options for teeth whitening including whitening toothpaste, whitening strips, and gels. For patients who want the best results, professional treatment is still the best choice. Dr. Radosavljevic offers teeth whitening systems with custom fit trays to ensure even whitening throughout your mouth. In addition, our products are specially formulated to reduce tooth sensitivity, a common side effect of whitening.

How much does teeth whitening cost?

Teeth whitening is one of the most affordable cosmetic dentistry treatments available. The cost of your whitening treatment will depend on the type of whitening you choose and your desired outcome. Generally speaking, at home whitening is less expensive than in office procedures. Refills for touch up treatment may be an additional cost. Contact our office for more specific details and to see if there are any teeth whitening specials available.

Will bleaching cause my teeth to be more sensitive?

One of the more common side effects of teeth whitening is tooth sensitivity. Dr. Radosavljevic carefully supervises teeth whitening treatments to ensure minimal side effects. In addition, the products we use are specially formulated to virtually eliminate sensitivity.

How long does whitening last?

The results of teeth whitening will vary based on each individual. Most patients can expect whitening to last six months to a year. Touch-up treatment every four to six months can help extend the results of your treatment. Visiting the dentist regularly and avoiding smoking and dark foods will also help to keep your teeth white and bright.
