Age, diet, illness, and lifestyle can discolour your teeth, affecting your self-confidence and oral health. Teeth whitening is a fast and effective way to brighten your teeth and give you a smile you are proud to share. 

However, professional-grade teeth whitening systems vary in efficacy. To choose the right one for your teeth, it is crucial to understand how each system works and discuss your options with your dentist. Here are two of the most popular and effective teeth whitening procedures. 

 

The Philips Zoom Teeth Whitening Procedure

To achieve a brighter smile, quickly and safely, the most effective option is in-chair professional teeth whitening at a dental practice. At Glebe Dental Group, we are proud to offer the Philip Zoom teeth whitening system, widely regarded as the best procedure available. 

Before your Zoom teeth whitening procedure, your dentist will clean away plaque and tartar to help you achieve optimal results. They then apply a protective barrier to your gums to prevent soft tissue irritation. The highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide gel is painted directly onto your teeth and begins to release oxygen molecules that break down and disperse stains. 

Your teeth are then exposed to the Philips Zoom WhiteSpeed Whitening LED Accelerator Light that speeds up the reaction between the peroxide and stain pigments in your tooth enamel. After approximately 15 minutes, the light is switched off, and the bleaching gel is rinsed away. 

The Zoom teeth whitening procedure can be performed three times in a single session to achieve a smile up to eight shades lighter in under an hour.

How KöR Teeth Whitening Works?

Discolouration due to medications cannot be removed by most standard tooth whitening products. KöR is a whitening system that can remove deep intrinsic staining due to tetracycline-based pharmaceuticals.

At Glebe Dental Group, we offer the at-home KöR teeth whitening system so you can achieve a brighter smile at your convenience.

KöR teeth whitening uses a specialised delivery system and an advanced dual-activated, Tri-Barrel™ Hydremide® Peroxide formula to penetrate your tooth’s enamel and whiten the dentin underneath. 

The effectiveness of a teeth whitening system depends on prolonged exposure to potent active bleaching agents that are chemically-enhanced to produce a high percentage of free radicals, as well as oxygen and water. Unfortunately, saliva can dilute up to 29 mg of peroxide-based whitening agents per minute, leaving most standard at-home kits inefficient and ineffective. 

The KöR teeth whitening system uses customised KöR-Seal™ trays that keep saliva out of the trays, ensuring the whitening gel is absorbed deeply into the enamel, providing 6-10 hours of whitening action.

The KöR teeth whitening formula is composed of three chemical components that are kept separately and mixed only when you need to use them. The KöR system is delivered refrigerated to preserve the stability of the bleaching agent and minimise any oxidative degradation. The formula also contains desensitising ingredients to eliminate tooth sensitivity, which is a common side effect of teeth whitening procedures.
