Zoom Whitening in Newport Beach, CA
Professional-Grade Whitening With Immediate Results
Zoom Whitening is one of the most popular in-office whitening treatments available, and it can make teeth dramatically whiter in a single visit. It is a great choice before a big event, or any time you want fast, professional results under a dentist’s care.
How Zoom Whitening Works
Zoom uses a powerful hydrogen peroxide whitening gel that is activated by a specialized LED light. The light helps the gel break up deep stains and discoloration more effectively than over-the-counter whitening products can. Before the gel goes on, your gums and lips are protected, and the treatment is carried out from start to finish under professional supervision. The whole appointment typically takes under an hour and can whiten your teeth by up to 8 shades. You leave with custom aftercare recommendations to help your new shade last.

Frequently Asked Questions About Zoom Whitening
- How long does a Zoom Whitening appointment take?
A Zoom Whitening appointment typically takes under an hour from start to finish. That includes protecting your gums, applying the gel and activating it with the Zoom light. Because it is done in one visit, there are no trays to wear over the following days. Many patients book it shortly before a big event.
- How many shades whiter can Zoom make my teeth?
Zoom can whiten your teeth by up to 8 shades in one appointment. How much change you see depends on your natural tooth color and what caused the staining. Stains from coffee, wine, smoking and aging tend to respond well. We will discuss the change to expect before you begin.
- Why does Zoom use a light?
The specialized LED light activates the hydrogen peroxide whitening gel. Once activated, the gel breaks up deep stains and discoloration more effectively than over-the-counter products. The light is part of the professional system and is used under supervision throughout. It is what allows Zoom to work in a single visit.
- Is Zoom Whitening safe?
Yes, Zoom is a safe, FDA-approved whitening system when it is performed by a dental professional. Your gums are protected before the gel is applied. The whole treatment happens under professional supervision. Our team checks your teeth and gums first to make sure Zoom suits you.
- Who should not have Zoom Whitening?
Zoom may not be recommended for patients with restorations on their front teeth, or with active decay or gum disease. Whitening gel does not change the color of crowns, veneers or fillings. Decay or gum disease should be treated before any whitening. Dr. Haroonian will review your options with you at your consultation.
- How do I keep my Zoom results bright?
Follow the custom aftercare recommendations we give you at the end of your visit. Cutting back on coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco helps slow new staining. Good daily brushing and flossing keep your smile looking fresh. The NiteWhite and DayWhite take-home systems from Zoom can help maintain your shade.
