Philips Zoom Teeth Whitening Gel

As far as convenient, at-home whitening products go, Philips Zoom is up there with the best of them. The results are immediate, and you will have a whiter smiler in no time. Results can also last as long as four years, which is great payback for a product that takes less than an hour to apply and has side effects lasting only a few days.

No, you should never eat, drink or smoke while wearing your whitening tray. Once your treatment is finished, remove the tray and gently clean it with a toothbrush before rinsing it and completely drying it. After your application, you should only drink water and no dark coloured food or drink for at least 48 hours.

Philips Zoom is one of the most convenient whitening products available if you don’t want to wear a tray for a long period. Available in various strengths, the trays should be worn for 30-90 minutes and you will see results in just 2 weeks. Read the manufacturer instructions to make sure you’re applying correctly.

Yes, brushing your teeth after whitening is fine, in fact, it’s recommended. We’d advise you use a soft bristled brush and a gentle toothpaste to do so. Also, if you suffer from any sensitivity after whitening, some people have success using products designed specifically for those with sensitive teeth.

There are two different versions of Philips Zoom, depending on which approach you prefer. The NiteWhite product is one which is designed for the tray to be worn overnight. It’s also the quicker of the two treatments, meaning you will see results quicker. If you don’t wish to wear it overnight, then the DayWhite product can be worn for just one hour every day.

The main thing to be aware of following whitening treatment is that your teeth are still porous. Therefore, for at least 48 hours, stay away from drinks such as coffee, soda, wine and tea which can stain your teeth, or anything else with a strong colour.
