How Zoom in-office teeth whitening works
Creative Dental of Syosset uses the Zoom whitening system at a 15% hydrogen peroxide concentration, which is stronger than anything sold over the counter. In Dr. Mozner’s words: “In-office whitening is worth it because by law the United States cannot allow pharmacists to sell high-peroxide bleaching materials. They have to be handled by a doctor in the dental office. OTC strips use lower concentration which is not as effective as in-office whitening.” Store strips usually take weeks to make a smaller change.
A protective barrier shields your gums during the procedure while the whitening gel and LED light work on the tooth enamel.
Zoom in-office whitening or take-home trays
In-office Zoom whitening in about an hour
Dr. Mozner applies the Zoom gel and an LED light in the office, and you leave the same visit about 2 to 3 shades brighter. The full appointment takes a little over an hour.
Custom take-home whitening trays
If you would rather whiten gradually, the office makes custom trays and sends you home with professional-grade gel to use at your own pace. This is also the simplest way to touch up your results later, after the color starts to come back.
Which tooth stains can teeth whitening remove?
- Yellow or dull teeth from aging
- Stains from coffee, tea, red wine, or tobacco
- Dark spots or general discoloration
- Uneven tone caused by lifestyle or diet
Whitening works on natural enamel and does not change the color of existing crowns, veneers, or fillings. We’ll check your case, tell you up front what to expect from your specific smile, and recommend the right option.
Does teeth whitening cause sensitivity?
Some patients feel mild, short-lived sensitivity for a day or two after whitening, and it settles on its own. Dr. Mozner checks your enamel and asks about any existing sensitivity before he starts, and the protective gum barrier keeps the gel where it belongs during the session. Comfort is part of how this office works day to day: Dr. Mozner is known for painless dentistry, and the practice keeps options like nitrous oxide and noise-canceling headphones on hand for anxious patients. If your teeth tend to be sensitive, the take-home trays let you whiten more slowly, which is gentler than a single concentrated session.
The dentist understood my fear with dental equipment from past experiences in a different office so he and his assistant made sure I was comfortable and even provided options such as noise canceling headphones!

What to avoid for the first week after Zoom whitening
The first week after your Zoom whitening treatment matters most for keeping your results. “No stained products, no stained food products should be consumed for a week,” Dr. Mozner advises. During this period, your teeth are more likely to absorb pigments from food and drinks.
For the first 7 days after treatment, avoid: coffee, tea, red wine, tomato sauce, berries, soy sauce, and dark sodas. Stick to light-colored foods and drinks. After the first week, resume your normal diet while being mindful that heavy staining habits will shorten the lifespan of your results.

In-office Zoom whitening at Creative Dental of Syosset costs $450 per session.

Whitening, bonding or veneers: which fixes your tooth color?
Whitening lightens natural enamel. Some color and shape problems need another treatment.
I have a dark or misshapen front tooth. What can change it?
Thin porcelain shells bonded to the front of a tooth change its color and shape together. Read about porcelain veneers.
I have a small chip as well as stains. Can both be fixed?
A small chip is often repaired with tooth-colored resin, which can be done alongside whitening. See dental bonding.
My teeth are crooked as well as yellow. What should I ask about?
Whitening changes color only. Crowding and gaps are moved with clear aligners, so ask about both at your visit. See Invisalign.
It has been a while since my last dental cleaning. Where do I start?
A cleaning and exam clears surface buildup and lets the dentist check your enamel and gums. Book dental cleanings and exams.
One tooth turned dark after an injury. Will whitening fix it?
A single tooth that darkens after an injury can mean the nerve inside is damaged, which needs an exam first. Read about root canals.
Teeth whitening in Syosset: common questions
Is professional teeth whitening safe for my enamel?
Yes. Dr. Mozner whitens natural enamel using the Zoom system, and a protective barrier shields your gums during the session. He checks your enamel and any existing sensitivity before treatment so the approach fits your teeth.
How many shades whiter will my teeth get?
Most patients see about 2 to 3 shades of improvement from a single in-office Zoom session that takes a little over an hour.
How long does teeth whitening last?
In-office Zoom results typically last 3 to 5 years. “The old color comes back in about three to five years depending on whether the patient is a heavy smoker or a coffee drinker,” Dr. Mozner notes. Avoiding heavy staining from tobacco, coffee, red wine, and dark foods helps your results last longer, and a touch-up can refresh them when they fade.
Can whitening treatments fix discolored crowns or veneers?
No. Whitening only lightens natural enamel, so it does not change the color of existing crowns, veneers, or fillings. Dr. Mozner evaluates your case and recommends the right option if those need to be matched or replaced.
How long does an in-office whitening appointment take?
A little over an hour, start to finish.
