Zoom! In Office Teeth Whitening
What to Expect
At BOCO Dental & Prosthodontics in Boulder, Dr. Marisa Patt provides professional Zoom! in-office teeth whitening for fast, dramatic results in just one visit. This 90-minute procedure safely removes years of stains to reveal a noticeably brighter, more radiant smile.
Before Your Appointment
To minimize sensitivity, patients are encouraged to use a desensitizing toothpaste—such as Sensodyne—for about a week before treatment. Your visit begins with a brief exam and cleaning to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy and ready for whitening.
During Treatment
A professional-strength hydrogen peroxide whitening gel is applied in four 15-minute sessions. A specialized LED light activates the gel, gently lifting deep stains and discoloration from the enamel. Most patients see their teeth brighten by three to four shades—or more—by the end of the appointment.
After Treatment
A soothing gel is applied to reduce any temporary sensitivity and protect the enamel. Dr. Patt will provide personalized guidance on keeping your new smile bright, including avoiding coffee, tea, red wine, and other dark foods or drinks for the first 48 hours.
Benefits of Zoom!® Teeth Whitening
- Quick, dramatic results in about 90 minutes
- Enhanced confidence with a more radiant, youthful smile

Aftercare
Some patients may experience mild tooth sensitivity in the first 24 to 48 hours after whitening. This is normal and typically fades quickly. You can manage it by using a sensitivity-reducing toothpaste and avoiding very hot or cold foods for a couple of days.
To keep your results bright for as long as possible, maintain daily brushing and flossing, limit dark or staining foods and drinks, and schedule routine professional cleanings at BOCO Dental & Prosthodontics in Boulder.
