Yuma Zoom Whitening

There are many differences between Zoom whitening and Opalescence Boost. So which in-office teeth whitening method is better? We prefer Boost mainly because it does not require the use of a high intensity light. Some Zoom patients have reported burns to the gum tissue and sensitivity to both their teeth and gums after the Zoom procedure. We recommend Boost whitening because we feel it provides you with better, more comfortable, and longer-lasting results.

The Boost Whitening System

Boost relies on a unique, self-activated formula that does not require a laser or expensive light. This product is packaged with a syringe-to-syringe mixing system that guarantees its freshness and allows the chemicals to be evenly mixed. It is safe and very effective, yielding results in about an hour. Another benefit of Boost whitening is that there is fluoride and potassium nitrate in the formula. This means that while your teeth are being whitened the enamel is being strengthened and your resistance to cavities is being built up. Typically, our dentist will follow-up this teeth whitening procedure with the application of a gingival liquid barrier.

Boost Compared to Zoom Whitening

When compared side by side, here is a brief overview:
  • Boost does not use a light.
  • With Zoom, there could be discomfort, burns,
    and tissue damage.
  • Boost's syringe mixing system provides longer-lasting
    results.
  • Both whitening systems are fast and convenient,
    performed in one appointment that lasts about an hour.
