We are frequently asked about the Zoom! Teeth Whitening System. This is a simple, yet effective way to create an instant smile makeover.

A common question asked is, “Does teeth whitening hurt?” The answer is no. In fact, here is exactly what takes place while a patient is going through the Zoom! whitening process.

First, the patient is asked to wear protective glasses. Next, their teeth are isolated and gums protected with a special, protective material. A whitening gel is then painted onto the teeth. The Zoom! light is then directed at the bleaching gel to accelerate the whitening . Dr. Maddahi likes to offer our video system to watch a movie or patients can relax while listening to music through headphones.

Another commonly asked question is, “How long does it take?” The Zoom! whitening process typically takes about an hour and a half.

Many patients are curious about the post-whitening care. It is recommended that for the next 48 hours after whitening, dark staining substances should be avoided. The Zoom! whitening process typically lightens one’s teeth six to ten shades. Avoiding staining foods or beverages and receiving regular teeth cleanings will help keep them that way.

In addition, we also offer our patients same-day, take home bleaching trays. This helps a patient to maintain the new whiteness of their teeth.

What a great, fast and easy way to create a much brighter and whiter smile!

Did you know, according to survey, people with whiter teeth appear younger, wealthier and smarter to others?

When I get home I am going to write a letter to Dr. Kourosh Maddahi and the Beverly Hills Cosmetic Dentist office because I am blown away.

It all started when someone I had spoken with on the phone for some years, but had never met, told me he was getting a divorce and wanted to meet me. He sent a photograph of himself and I got motivated to do a makeover before I met him. I lost weight but I didn’t take the easy way out. I educated myself on eating and exercising and followed my plan. After losing all the weight I went for the makeover.

From the moment I walked into Dr. Maddahi’s office I felt like I had been given the best possible care. Since I was from out of state, I was on a schedule and it was a rush to get me through all the procedures on my makeover within the time frame I had available. When I told my surgeon that I felt my smile brought my face down he directed me to see Dr. Maddahi and explore getting veneers.

Dr. Maddahi has a talent to envision a smile and how it should look. He asked me what I wanted to fix about it. I told him what I pictured it should look like. I told him I felt like I had a very small smile compared to how I felt inside. Mainly, when I would smile, my lower teeth would show instead of the uppers. I pointed out things I thought should be different. He then said let me tell you what I have seen as well and mentioned a couple of things that I had thought about but could not pinpoint like he did. It was exactly what I wanted. He transformed my smile without any major surgery – just reshaping the teeth. And the veneers – the way he put them on just transformed my smile completely!

I have been very happy every step of the way. Arcy helped me with the financing as this was not part of the original makeover project. I kid around about how I have a Mercedes of a smile. Now, when I smile, my smile is wider and you see all my upper teeth and less of the bottom ones. Truly he is an artist. I can’t wait to see my before and after shots. Today he did some final tweaking. I am soooo excited!

Everything about this office is special. From the beginning I was treated like one of the rich and famous. Dr. Maddahi was wonderful each time I came in. My temporaries came off and he saw me right away and worked around my schedule. I can’t say enough about how wonderful my experience has been. As far as dental work is concerned, I have only had cleanings in the past. However, Dr. Maddahi put me at ease and I never felt anxious or nervous. Even the shots for numbing were hardly noticeable. Each time I felt uncomfortable he noticed immediately and asked about my comfort – always looking after me. So, it’s a very comfortable environment. It’s also very classy and aesthetic. It’s just WOW!

This is the one thing I have wanted to do for a long time and how can you go wrong in Beverly Hills, especially in a practice like this. This really completed my makeover and I am very, very happy. It was worth every penny. You get what you pay for and it really matters where you go. That’s why I flew out here from New York. I was very lucky to be able to achieve all I have. I wanted to do it once and do it right – the first time. It’s been incredible, a fairy tale come true and now I’m off to marry Prince Charming. – MT
