Brighten Your Smile with In-Office Teeth Whitening
For many teens and young adults, having a brighter smile can mean greater confidence — for prom photos, college interviews, social events, and everyday life. At Dentistry for Children and Teens, we offer Zoom Teeth Whitening designed specifically for younger patients who want results they can see — and parents who want results they can trust.
Performed in our Atlanta office under the care of a board-certified pediatric dentist, Zoom whitening offers safe, fast, and effective stain removal in a single visit. Unlike drugstore products, our approach is tailored to growing smiles, enamel safety, and long-term dental health.
Why Teens and Young Adults Choose Zoom Whitening
Our in-office whitening system is a perfect fit for patients ages 14 and up (or younger on a case-by-case basis), especially those who are preparing for:
- Senior portraits
- College applications and interviews
- Social events, dances, and prom
- Braces removal or post-orthodontic treatments
- Everyday confidence boosts
We focus on whitening without compromising enamel health, with detailed assessments and supervision throughout the process.
What to Expect During a Zoom Whitening Visit
Zoom Teeth Whitening is a clinically proven procedure that uses a light-activated hydrogen peroxide gel to break down stains and whiten teeth several shades in about an hour.
Here’s how it works:
- We evaluate the teeth and enamel condition to ensure whitening is appropriate
- A protective barrier is placed on gums and soft tissue
- Whitening gel is applied and activated with a specialized LED light
- The gel may be applied in multiple cycles for optimal brightness
- Results are visible immediately — and improve slightly over 24–48 hours
For best results, whitening should be performed after orthodontic treatment or when all permanent teeth are present.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe for Teens?
Yes — when supervised by a dental professional, teeth whitening is completely safe for teens and young adults.
We carefully assess:
- Tooth sensitivity or enamel wear
- Timing around recent cleanings or fillings
- Orthodontic history
- Whitening goals and expectations
At-home kits, strips, and LED lights bought online may lead to enamel damage, gum irritation, or uneven results. We help patients and families achieve a brighter smile the right way — with long-term health in mind.
