    • The complete procedure takes less than an hour. The process begins with a preparation period followed by about 45 minutes of bleaching. A cleaning is usually recommended prior to the actual Zoom session.
  • How does the Zoom Whitening In-office system work?
    • Zoom light activated gel contains the active ingredient Hydrogen Peroxide.
