The ZOOM Teeth Whitening Treatment
ZOOM!Teeth Whitening is the fastest, most effective and safest method to whiten your teeth. It isn’t just popularized by word of mouth. Numerous studies vouch for its effectiveness and safety. Being a product of Philips, a globally recognized brand, it brings with it a legacy of quality and innovation.
The procedure lasts for 1 – 1.30 hours depending on the case, during which a light-activated gel is applied on your teeth. The ZOOM! light is used for gel activation and helps the gel to penetrate the tooth surface.
The results can be seen immediately, up to 8 shades whiter in 45 minutes. And because a dental professional is involved, the process is safe and reliable.
ZOOM is exceptionally effective in tackling both surface and deep-set tooth stains. Whether your discoloration is due to coffee, red wine, aging, or even certain medications, ZOOM can provide a transformative effect. Walk away with a visibly brighter and more radiant smile!
The Teeth Whitening Process
of your teeth.
It begins with a thorough dental cleaning to remove plaque and surface debris.
Once teeth cleaning is done, a protective gel or rubber shield is applied to safeguard the gums. The whitening agent is then applied to the teeth. This agent works by breaking down and releasing oxygen molecules that penetrate the enamel, effectively breaking apart stains and discolorations.
Depending on the method chosen, a special light might be used to enhance the action of the whitening substance.
After the desired shade is achieved, which typically takes anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour, the teeth are rinsed, and a fluoride application may be used to reduce potential tooth sensitivity.
Teeth Whitening Maintenance
Achieving that sparkling, bright smile of your dreams is only the first step. Maintaining it is the journey. Once you’ve invested in a teeth whitening treatment, it’s crucial to ensure that your results last and your teeth remain healthy. Here’s how to go about it:
- Regularly brush and floss to remove plaque and prevent surface stains.
- Limit or avoid consumption of staining substances like coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco.
- Limit acidic foods that can erode enamel, making teeth more susceptible to staining. If consumed, it’s a good practice to wait at least 30 minutes before brushing to allow the enamel to remineralize.
- Drink colored beverages using a straw to reduce contact with teeth.
- Consume crunchy foods like apples, celery, and carrots, which can act as natural toothbrushes, scrubbing away particles and promoting saliva production, which naturally cleans teeth.
- Over time, some discoloration can recur. Touch-up treatments, either at-home kits provided by your dentist or brief in-office procedures, can help restore the brightness.


Teeth Whitening Side Effects
Although teeth whitening is generally safe, some patients may encounter temporary side effects, which include:
Tooth Sensitivity
Some may experience heightened sensitivity to hot or cold during or after the procedure, but this sensitivity is typically transient and should fade away.
Gum Irritation
If this happens, it lasts only for a few hours. Whitening products used or suggested by the dentist do not harm gums.
Enamel Damage
It is crucial to only use whitening products suggested by your dentist. #teeth whitening near me
Uneven Whitening
There can be instances where the results are uneven, especially if certain areas of the teeth absorb more whitening agent than others or if pre-existing dental work like crowns and fillings do not lighten.
Talk to our dentists at Symeou Dental Center to ensure that teeth whitening is appropriate for you, and get guidance on the safest and most effective approach.
Teeth Whitening Cost
Teeth whitening has emerged as a sought-after cosmetic procedure in Cyprus, with the price varying based on several factors, such as the chosen treatment type or the reputation of the clinic. The expertise of the dental practitioner can also impact the cost.
Additionally, the extent of discoloration and the number of sessions required can further influence the final cost. It’s essential for patients to have a thorough discussion with their dentist to understand the most effective and cost-efficient approach to meet their teeth whitening goals.
Our dental experts at Symeou Dental Center will evaluate your unique case and create a customized treatment plan. We are dedicated to providing competitive and clear pricing, making teeth whitening easily accessible to all our patients.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long after teeth whitening can I eat normally?
After undergoing teeth whitening, it’s recommended to wait for about 1 to 2 hours before consuming any food or beverages. This waiting period allows the whitening agents to fully settle on your teeth, optimizing the effectiveness of the treatment. By giving the agents enough time to work, you can ensure that you achieve the best possible results from your teeth whitening procedure.
Can I drink coffee 24 hours after teeth whitening?
To maintain teeth whitening results, it’s best to refrain from coffee or staining substances for 24-48 hours after the procedure. During this time, enamel pores remain open, making teeth more vulnerable to staining. Follow your dentist’s guidelines for lasting whitening effects.
What is the downside of tooth whitening?
Although tooth whitening is generally safe and effective, tooth sensitivity and gum irritation may occur during or after the process. However, these symptoms completely disappear the day after your whitening session.
Do not use whitening products that are not approved by your dentist as these can cause enamel erosion. Following your dentist’s instructions is crucial.
Why are my teeth not white after whitening?
There are various reasons why your teeth may not achieve the desired whiteness after whitening. Factors like your teeth’s initial shade, the cause of discoloration, and the whitening treatment used can affect effectiveness. Some patients’ teeth are more “resistant,” so they need more days to achieve the desired shade. Having realistic expectations and consulting your dentist can guide you toward the best approach to achieve your desired results.
Why are my teeth different colors after whitening?
After whitening, teeth may have varying colors or shades due to genetics, enamel thickness, or dental restorations. Existing color differences can become more apparent initially, leading some teeth to appear lighter than others.
This effect fades after a couple of days when teeth are re-hydrated. If the issue continues, additional whitening treatments or cosmetic dental procedures may be suggested. For personalized advice, consult our dentists at Symeou Dental Center.
Do your teeth get more yellow after whitening?
Teeth do not become more yellow after whitening. However, a slight rebound effect is normal, and teeth may gradually regain some natural color over time due to factors like diet and lifestyle habits. Good oral hygiene and avoiding staining substances can extend teeth whitening results. We also recommend maintenance sessions at the dentist’s office together with at-home maintenance.
