Teeth Whitening

Brighten Your Smile

Do you hide your smile in public or photos because of stains and discoloration? About 80% of Americans wish they had a brighter smile — yet over-the-counter products often cause irritation and deliver uneven results. Dr. Rob McVety offers in-office Zoom! whitening with Pola Gel in Falmouth, ME, delivering smiles up to 8 shades whiter in less than an hour.

Why Are My Teeth Stained?

Your teeth can become stained for many reasons. Normal wear and tear over time causes natural discoloration as enamel thins. Staining accelerates if you:

• Drink coffee, tea, or red wine regularly • Use tobacco products or smoke • Eat richly pigmented foods like blueberries, pasta sauce, or dark liquor • Practice inconsistent brushing and flossing

Regardless of the cause, professional whitening can reverse most surface and subsurface staining quickly and safely.

Zoom! In-Office Whitening

Patient thrilled with her Zoom teeth whitening results at Casco Bay Smiles

If you've tried store-bought strips or trays without the results you wanted, Zoom! is a different experience entirely. Dr. McVety applies a professional-grade whitening solution evenly across your teeth, then uses a special activation lamp that penetrates stains on and below the enamel surface.

The result: smiles up to 8 shades whiter in about an hour. Zoom's unique formula is also designed for patients who have experienced sensitivity in the past — the light-activated bleaching process is faster and gentler than prolonged at-home tray exposure.

How Long Will My Results Last?

Most patients enjoy whiter teeth for 3–6 months, though this varies based on diet and oral hygiene. To extend your results:

• Brush and floss consistently • Use a non-alcoholic mouthwash • Avoid heavily pigmented foods and drinks for the first few days after treatment

We also offer quick touch-up appointments — perfect before an important event, interview, or wedding.
