2. The Philips ZoomWhiteSpeed Light-
Activated Whitening System
What is Zoom WhiteSpeed?
Philips Zoom WhiteSpeed is an In-Office
procedure for whitening discolored teeth.
A bright sparkling smile can make a
difference in patients’ lives and motivate
them to take better care of their teeth.
ZoomWhiteSpeed whitens teeth up to 8
shades in less than an hour, not including
preparation time.

3. How does Zoom WhiteSpeed work?
•The ZoomWhitening Gel’s active ingredient is hydrogen
peroxide. As the hydrogen peroxide is broken down,
oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching colored
substances while leaving the structure of the tooth
unchanged.The Zoom In-OfficeWhitening Lamp aids in
activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the
surface of the tooth.

4. • How long does Zoom In-Office Whitening take?
The procedure begins with a preparation period followed by
three, 15-minutes of bleaching sessions with an optional
fourth, 15-minute session to be dispensed at the discretion of
the dental professional.

5. Can the Zoom Whitening Gel be used for internal bleaching of the tooth?
• ZoomWhitening Gel is approved and tested for external bleaching only.There
has been no testing for internal bleaching.
Is Zoom recommended for patients with dental implants?
• It is not recommended that the Zoom procedure is performed on for patients
with implants in the anterior teeth (upper six, lower six) or titanium implants
that could absorb heat and could cause discomfort. Heating of the bone around
implants can lead to failure. Other types of dental implants have not been found
to cause problems during the Zoom procedure.
