Zoom whitening
An in-practice whitening option considered after a dental assessment.
Could this treatment help you?
Zoom is an in-surgery whitening system: dental-grade gel activated under a lamp, completed in a single supervised visit rather than weeks of home trays. It suits people who want a marked change quickly, with a professional in the room throughout.
As with all whitening at Pearl Dental, the teeth and gums are checked first — whitening is only offered where it is safe and likely to work.
This may suit you if
Natural teeth darker or more stained than you would like, healthy gums, and a preference for one supervised visit over a course of home whitening. Suitability is confirmed at the assessment.
What it will not do
Whitening changes natural teeth only — crowns, veneers and fillings keep their shade, which is why whitening is sequenced before matched cosmetic work. Temporary sensitivity during and after treatment is common and settles. In the UK, whitening is legal only when performed by a dental professional.

- Step 4Shade checkThe result is compared against your starting record and aftercare agreed.
Afterwards
Expect possible sensitivity for a day or two. The new shade lasts longest when tea, coffee, red wine and smoking are kept down, and hygiene visits keep surface stain from creeping back.
Questions patients usually ask.
How much does Zoom whitening cost?
The cost is confirmed in writing at the assessment, before anything is booked.
How white will my teeth go?
It varies by person — starting shade and how your teeth respond decide it. The assessment gives you an honest expectation rather than a promise, and your result is measured against your recorded starting shade.
Zoom or home whitening?
Zoom concentrates the change into one supervised visit; combination whitening pairs surgery treatment with home trays for a result you top up yourself. Which suits you is discussed at the assessment.
