Since the seal hardens, if you move it will crack. She immediatly took the lamp off and fixed the gum seal. A small part of my front gums were burning a little. After about 2 minutes she came back in and asked if I feel ANY sensation on my gums, lips, or face. (Your dentist will either do 3 times at 20 mins each, or 4 times at 20 min each). After she prep'd my gums, she applied the two gels on my teeth. She informed me that any part of the gums that are showing will severely burn if exposed to the light and or the bleach.She told me to immediatly report ANY sensation on my lips, gums, or face. She spent about 45 minutes making sure EVERY speck of gums were covered. She finished the "protection" on my lips and face and started to prep the gums. She said it was VERY important to protect all the lip including under the lip. She may have used a tape like material to hold them on, but I am not sure. Next she used special pads and put them all over my lips. She than piled on gauze around my tongue, and covered my lips. She told me that it is to protect my face from the UV light. I mean so thick that it looked like I was wearing a mask. She prepared me by drenching my face and my lips in sunscreen. She herself had the procedure done on herself and experienced it first hand. She discussed all the side effects and (unlike many other people's dentist) she told me about the extreme pain. She first discussed the procedure and the prep. But, having coffee stained yellow teeth and only being 30 I went for it anyways.Īt the dentist the hygentist performed the entire procedure. Prior to having the zoom 3 whitening procedure performed by my dentist, I did much research and read MANY reviews.
