Should i get a crown before or after zoom whitening? i'm having several bits of dental work done, and need a crown as well as wanting to have zoom whitening done. which order would it be best to do these two in?

Do : Do the zoom! first, then have and crowns of white restorations done after the zoom! so that your dentist can match the color of the restorations to your whitened teeth. Porcelain color cannot be changed with whitening products.

I : I agree with dr.Davantzis' answer but want to add that the zoom teeth whitening procedure is not permanent. If you continue with your current habits (eating, drinking, smoking, etc.) the teeth will pick up stains after the whitening procedure. You need to decide where you are "going to live" most of the time. If you are not going to maintain the "whitened" appearence long-term, you might be unhappy with the results down the line. I would discuss this with your restorative dentist so that you both can come up with the proper decision.

Zoom first: Please have your teeth whitened first. Then have your crowns completed. Please know that you will have to maintain your bleaching about once a year.

Tooth Whitening: We all are in agreement: always whitening (zoom) comes first before any extensive restoration especially if it involves tooth color material (composites, veneers, crowns). Bleach to your desired shade then get the restorations.

Depends on the cause and the jaw relationship: 9 mm is considerable and there must be an overbite component. Often pre- and post- tx. Orthodontic treatment is required. Surgical time is variable as is healing time. One thing is common, and that is that you will be tremendously better off after all is completed -- and that will be for the rest of your life. Best of luck with your treatment.

Zoom whitening 1st: Make sure the whitening completed first and then the new crown made to match the newly brightened natural teeth. Take care.
