Which method to choose: Amazing white or Zoom teeth whitening?


Beautiful white teeth are a sign of health, beauty and success. Many people turn to dental centers for professional teeth whitening.

Modern dentistry offers several ways to solve the problem of darkening of tooth enamel. The innovative whitening procedure is in particular demand - amazing white

, which replaced the previously popular whitening technique – zoom.

In this article we will look at how these teeth whitening procedures differ, which method is more effective and safe, and who is suitable for whom.

All about Zoom whitening

The modern classic Zoom whitening procedure, developed by American scientists, is based on the photoactivation reaction of a gel containing hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide.

Advantages and disadvantages of the technique

Zoom is an effective method of teeth whitening, which has its pros and cons. Let's look at them.

Advantages of the Zoom procedure:

  • a quick and painless way to whiten teeth;
  • the system does not have a destructive effect on tooth enamel;
  • guaranteed result, lightening of tooth tissue by 8-10 shades.

For some period after bleaching, the patient needs to stop smoking and consuming coloring foods and drinks.

Minuses:

  • tooth hypersensitivity for several days after the procedure;
  • If during treatment the active agent accidentally comes into contact with the gum tissue, minor irritation may occur;
  • excessive lightening with high intensity bleaching, which leads to the formation of an unnatural tooth color.

Efficiency of photobleaching

You can usually whiten your teeth several shades. But the results of whitening, as well as its durability, regardless of the technique, are always individual. In many ways, the achieved effect depends on the natural shade of the teeth and the reasons for its change. For example, yellow teeth are more susceptible to lightening than gray teeth. A coffee or cigarette lover will be more likely to be satisfied with the results obtained, but someone with tetracycline teeth or fluorosis will probably waste their time and money. Therefore, if you are interested in the issue of effectiveness, then reviews from friends and colleagues about photo teeth whitening are unlikely to be useful to you. “I want teeth whiter than my girlfriend’s!” – You shouldn’t make such a request even to the best specialist. If you need a guaranteed result, it makes sense to think about installing lumineers, which quite effectively solve the problem of yellow teeth.

How is the Zoom whitening procedure performed?

The Zoom whitening technique is successfully used in many dental centers in Russia. The procedure is performed in several stages and takes about 2 hours, which depends on the persistence of the deposits and the desired shade.

Zoom teeth whitening procedure – step by step:

1. Applying whitening gel to tooth enamel.

2. The doctor directs the glow of a special Zoom lamp with ultraviolet radiation onto the surfaces of the teeth treated with gel, which activates the release of free oxygen. Under the influence of a lamp, it penetrates into the deep hard tissues of the tooth and removes deposits, including the most persistent ones.

3. At the end of the procedure, the gel is washed off with water from the surface of the teeth.

4. The doctor applies a special agent to the enamel to reduce tooth sensitivity and strengthen the enamel.

Whitening using the Zoom system has many contraindications. This method is not used to restore a beautiful enamel color to women during lactation and pregnancy, people with epilepsy and mental disorders. Contraindications to the procedure are also various diseases of the teeth and gums, allergic reactions to the active components of the gel, cancer, the presence of a pacemaker and age under 18 years.

Where in Moscow can you lighten your teeth with cold light?

Aesthetic dentistry services, namely hardware procedures, can now be found in almost every clinic in Moscow. Before choosing a place, make sure of the professionalism of the specialists and the quality of the material used. Read reviews or consult your dentist.

At the A-Medic clinic, you can not only do light teeth whitening, but also take advantage of other aesthetic dentistry services. At the first appointment, the doctor will help you choose the appropriate lightening technique that will suit you in terms of cost and quality.

Amazing White system – advantages, features, indications

An innovative method of whitening tooth enamel, Amazing White occupies a leading position in the ranking of the best dental techniques aimed at restoring the snow-white color of tooth enamel. The technique is based on the use of a special gel containing an active substance - hydrogen peroxide, which effectively lightens the tooth crown without compromising the integrity of the tissue structure.

Will not cope with hypoplasia and fluorosis

The technology will not be effective against non-carious lesions and stains that affect the aesthetics of the smile: hypoplasia, fluorosis, wedge-shaped defect. Especially if the pathologies are severe.

Are any of the professional whitening methods effective for the listed defects? Researchers claim that some types of hypoplasia, mild fluorosis and even tetracycline teeth are best treated with ZOOM technology. But most often, such patients are still offered to install veneers, lumineers and crowns (if the teeth are severely damaged), which, in addition to adding aesthetics to the smile, help protect the enamel from external influences, destruction and caries.


The technology will not be effective against fluorosis

There is a filling on the front tooth, will it be whitened using the methods you listed?

Valya (06/08/2020 at 01:15) Reply to comment

    Dear Valya, fillings and artificial crowns cannot be whitened by any of the methods existing today. If you want to whiten the enamel, then the filling will need to be changed so that it matches the color of the new shade of the teeth.

Is it possible to do cold bleaching immediately after air flow?

Laura (06/27/2020 at 01:24 pm) Reply to comment

    No, you need to wait at least 7–10 days: during this period you need to use special pastes and remineralizing compounds.

Will they give me an anesthetic injection before bleaching, otherwise I’m afraid...

Zverev S. (07/13/2020 at 15:47) Reply to comment

    Injection anesthesia is not used for such a procedure, but the gums and soft tissues will be treated with a special protective gel that reduces sensitivity and the likelihood of irritation of the mucous membrane.

Why does tooth enamel darken?

To get the most out of lamp whitening, you need to understand the causes of darkening of tooth enamel. In most cases, it is enough to eliminate the negative impact and clean the teeth so that the color of the teeth becomes natural again.

Dentin has a dark shade, which shines through a thin layer of enamel. A fair question arises: how does it happen that dentin darkens if the enamel is strong and can protect the tooth from many negative factors?

The reason is quite simple. It lies in the universal love for solid foods and sour drinks. Seeds, nuts, lemonades and other similar products contribute to the deformation of the upper layer of teeth. Through scratches and chips, pigments easily penetrate into the tooth tissue, staining the dentin.

The main factors influencing the color of teeth:

  • The most popular reason is the consumption of foods that contain large amounts of coloring substances. These can be the following things: cranberries, blueberries, beets, strawberries, various candies and sodas, coffee, strong tea and much more. If this is the reason for the darkening of your teeth, then careful hygiene and periodic professional cleaning (once or twice a year) will help.
  • Change • Change in enamel color is common in smokers. The main problem here is the tar that is in the cigarette. Together with smoke, they fall on the surface of the teeth and settle in the form of a dark plaque. Gradually, this sediment destroys tooth enamel, which can lead to caries and more serious diseases. In addition, smoking also has a negative impact on your gums. The best option in this case would be to quit smoking completely. If this is not possible for you, try to reduce your cigarette consumption to a minimum and pay more attention to oral hygiene.
  • The tooth may darken due to injury, which led to damage to the neurovascular bundle. In this case, consultation with a specialist is necessary. Until the cause is eliminated, whitening will not help lighten the tooth.
  • The shade may change due to the removal of the nerve; the darkening may not appear immediately, but also requires the intervention of a specialist.
  • Filling a canal can lead to staining of the enamel; it all depends on the material used to fill the hole.
  • Progressive caries is an advanced case of ordinary caries. The fact is that if such damage is not eliminated, small black spots will increase, destroying the enamel and then the dentin.
  • Teeth may have congenital characteristics that are in no way related to caries or other damage. They can differ in structure, tone, shape, and so on. In some cases, it is possible to change their color only with the help of special overlays - veneers.
  • Excess fluoride in the water you drink can lead to fluorosis. At the beginning of the disease, dark spots or chalky streaks appear on the teeth. The progression of the disease leads to the destruction of enamel and then dentin. Whitening such teeth is not possible until you get rid of fluorosis.
  • Taking tetracycline antibiotics during pregnancy can negatively affect the condition of the baby's teeth.
