Teeth Whitening

If your smile has collected stains and a dark yellow tint over the years, nothing will revitalize its appearance more quickly than advanced, professional tooth whitening. Here at our state-of-the-art Fresno cosmetic dentistry practice, we offer tooth whitening treatments that are safe, highly effective, and comfortable. The most popular teeth whitening option among our patients is unquestionably the Zoom! Teeth Whitening System.

Instant Gratification with Zoom!

Tooth whitening has come a long way in recent years. The makers of professional tooth whitening products like Zoom! are allowing patients to enjoy dramatic results with improved safety and efficiency. The Zoom! Teeth Whitening System lets you see an improvement of up to 8 shades in just one session. In about an hour, you can get a renewed sense of confidence in your smile, as the Zoom! bleaching agent penetrates your enamel and removes the dulling stains caused by wine, coffee, smoking, and aging.

Your in-office treatment will begin by protecting your lips and gums with a dental dam. Then, the proprietary Zoom! whitening gel – a pH-balanced hydrogen peroxide – is applied directly to your teeth. A safe heat lamp is then used to help the Zoom! gel absorb into tooth surfaces, clearing away stains. Finally, a fluoride rinse completes the process. Your initial results will be immediately visible, but your teeth will continue to whiten over the next few days.

Gradual Whitening at Home

If you would rather upgrade your tooth shade in a more gradual manner, Dr. Miyake also offers take-home Zoom! Teeth Whitening kits. These professional-grade whitening kits include customized trays created for you by Dr. Miyake, and the same effective whitening gel at a lower potency. The trays will be worn nightly, and Dr. Miyake will monitor your progress through follow-up appointments. The flexibility and convenience of the at-home whitening system satisfies many of our patients, and the more subtle results are perfect for patients who want a more subtle shade improvement.

The Professional Whitening Touch

Teeth whitening is the most non-invasive cosmetic dentistry treatment you can choose, and it’s extremely affordable as well. But remember, over-the-counter whiteners bought from a store tend to be either too weak or too harsh on your teeth and gums, and their formulas are of a much lower quality than our professional-grade whiteners. Only when tooth whitening is supervised by a skilled cosmetic dentist can you expect great results that look natural and won’t damage precious enamel or gum tissue.
