Dentist New York-Dr Lawrence Spindel Zoom Photo Reactive Drug Information Sheet

                              Go Back

Included in every Zoom Whitening Kit is a sheet which details medications which are commonly considered phoreactive and Zoom maintains that that these might cause an adverse reaction if used in conjunction with the Zoom System.

It is Dr Spindel's opinion that If you are taking one of these medications it may be advisable to consider an in office whitening system that does not utilize a UV or Laser system.  For our patients taking these medications we are currently using The Nupro White Gold In-office Whitening System instead of the Zoom System.

Cosmetic Dentist New Yor

Cosmetic Dentistry Tip:After whitening, smiles remain bright for a long perioed of time. Gradually the brightness does tend to fade somewhat. Often teeth remain brighter than they were prior to bleaching for years. Most patients desire a bleaching touch up after 6 months to year. If a patient has whitening trays most touch ups can be accomplished easily in a day or two. Sometimes teeth become temporarily sensitive during the whitening process. If a patient stops whitening or takes a break this sensitivity goes away. Forty eight hours after they stop bleaching most patients report their teeth feel normal again.
