Laser dentistry is the latest, most efficient method
of treating cavities, tooth decay, discolored teeth, and the problems
associated with gum disease. This technology virtually eliminates
the pain and discomfort associated with traditional dental care,
allowing you to achieve a whiter, more beautiful smile without
invasive surgery or swelling. Dr. Gunnin is proud to be one of
the only dentists in Northeastern Tennessee to offer the benefits
of this cutting-edge equipment to his patients.
ZOOM!
Dr. Gunin specializes in the latest, most effective tooth whitening procedure available-the Zoom! in-office whitening system. Safe, fast, and convenient, Zoom! uses a combination of formulated lighting and hydrogen peroxide-based bleach to whiten teeth-typically by six to 10 shades-in one brief office visit. With simple, regular home touch-ups and careful maintenance, a beautiful Zoom! smile can last indefinitely.
Zoom! Whitening Gel is carefully applied to the enamel (the tooth's protective coating) and heated by a special Zoom! Whitening Lamp. The gel breaks itself down and then releases oxygen into the teeth's dentin (the main, hard part of the tooth) and enamel. The oxygen bleaches away stains without affecting the structure of the teeth. After one hour, the gel is removed, and a five-minute fluoride treatment is administered. The end result is brighter, whiter teeth that are essentially free of coffee, tea, soft drink, wine, or tobacco stains.
Although many patients who do try Zoom! notice no side effects, some might experience tooth sensitivity, discomfort from the heat lamp, or mild tingling sensations. Zoom! in-office whitening system is safe for most patients, although those who nurse, are pregnant, take prescription or homeopathic light-sensitive drugs, have skin cancer, or receive chemotherapy should not undergo the procedure.
Please contact us today to find out if Zoom! is right for you.
