Professional Philips Zoom whitening at a price below Miami's typical $400–$600 range, without cutting corners on results or care.
Nearly 37% of Americans are unhappy with the color of their teeth, making whitening one of the most requested cosmetic dental treatments. Zoom uses a hydrogen peroxide gel activated by LED light to break down stains at the enamel level, delivering results that surface products can't match.
Miami's typical Zoom whitening price is $400–$600. Our $350 rate can save you $50–$250+ per visit.

In-office Zoom whitening in Miami typically costs between $400 and $600, with some clinics charging up to $1,000. At Dr G Dental Studio, our Zoom whitening treatment is $350 — below the Miami average — and includes your consultation, treatment, and post-whitening care.
Most patients see results 6 to 8 shades whiter after a single Zoom whitening session, compared to 1 to 3 shades with over-the-counter whitening strips.
Zoom whitening results typically last 1 to 3 years depending on diet, tobacco use, and oral hygiene habits. Avoiding coffee, red wine, and tobacco, along with periodic touch-ups, helps extend your results.
Some temporary sensitivity to cold or hot foods is common after treatment and typically resolves within 24 to 48 hours. We apply a desensitizing fluoride treatment after your session to help minimize discomfort.
No. Whitening gel only changes the color of natural tooth enamel. Crowns, veneers, and bonding will not lighten, which can create a mismatched appearance if you have visible restorations. Talk to your dentist about your options if this applies to you.
A typical Zoom whitening visit takes about 60 to 90 minutes total, including consultation, prep, three to four whitening cycles, and post-treatment fluoride application.
Professional whitening usually gives faster, stronger and more even results than store strips, because the gel is stronger and applied under supervision to protect your gums. Strips can work for mild stains but take longer. Our in-office Zoom whitening is $350. Whitening does not change the color of crowns, veneers or fillings.
Usually no. Most dental insurance plans treat whitening as cosmetic, so it is not covered. We accept PPO insurance for covered treatment and work with four financing partners for cosmetic care like whitening. Our in-office Zoom whitening is $350.
Professional whitening is considered safe for enamel when done correctly. Temporary sensitivity is the most common side effect. Gel touching the gums can cause short-term irritation, which is why we protect your gums during in-office whitening. Overusing store products is more likely to cause problems.

Un blanqueamiento en clínica suele durar de 1 a 3 años, según sus hábitos. El café, el té, el vino y el tabaco hacen que los dientes se vuelvan a manchar más rápido. Limpiezas regulares y algún retoque ayudan a mantener el resultado. Llame al (305) 217-6453 para preguntar por precios. Hablamos español.
Por lo general se recomienda esperar hasta después del embarazo y la lactancia para blanquearse los dientes, porque no hay suficientes estudios sobre su seguridad en esa etapa. Las limpiezas dentales sí se consideran seguras durante el embarazo. Avísenos si está embarazada y la Dra. Gonzalez le orientará.

More answers about who Zoom whitening suits, how to prepare, and how to keep your results.
Zoom whitening isn't the best choice if you have untreated cavities, active gum disease or severe tooth sensitivity, and elective whitening is typically postponed during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It also won't lighten crowns, veneers or bonding. Your dentist checks your teeth and gums at your consultation and will suggest another option, such as veneers, if whitening isn't a good fit.
Not always. Zoom works best on yellow or light brown surface stains from coffee, wine or aging. Deep internal stains, such as gray discoloration from certain medications or an injured tooth, often don't respond fully to whitening. For those teeth, porcelain veneers ($650 per tooth) or bonding may give a more even result. Your dentist can tell you what to expect at your shade check.
Your teeth are cleaned at the start of the Zoom visit, so you don't need a separate appointment in most cases. If you haven't had a checkup in a while, have tartar buildup or might have a cavity, your dentist may recommend a full exam and cleaning first so the gel works evenly and safely. New patients can ask about our $89 new patient cleaning special.
For the first couple of days, it's best to avoid dark or acidic foods and drinks such as coffee, tea, red wine, cola, berries and tomato sauce, and to avoid tobacco. Your teeth can pick up stains more easily right after whitening. Use a straw for colored drinks, rinse with water after meals and keep brushing twice a day to protect your new shade.
Yes. We offer take-home whitening kits for touch-ups, and using touch-up trays every 3 to 6 months can help your Zoom results last longer. Touch-ups are gentler than a full in-office session and keep your shade from slowly drifting back. Ask your dentist which touch-up schedule makes sense for your diet and habits.
Plan your Zoom session about one to two weeks before a big event. That leaves time for any temporary sensitivity to settle and for your shade to stabilize before photos. If you're also getting veneers or bonding, whiten first so they can be matched to your new shade. Call (305) 217-6453 early, since popular dates fill up quickly.
