The products

Philips' flagship Zoom! WhiteSpeed in-chair system utilises advanced blue LED light-technology to accelerate the whitening process. In 45 minutes, teeth can be up to 8 shades whiter,² reversing stains from food and drinks, ageing and even discolouration from some medications. Philips Zoom! DayWhite and NiteWhite complete the range with take home options in 6%, 9.5% and 14% hydrogen peroxide and 10%, 16% and 22% carbamide peroxide respectively.

Philips Sonicare range of electric toothbrushes pulse fluid between the teeth and along the gum line while 62,000 brush strokes per minute gently and effectively remove plaque. The Sonicare range includes the Sonicare 9900 Prestige, Sonicare DiamondClean 9000, ExpertClean 7300, ProtectiveClean, Sonicare 3100 Series, Sonicare 2100 Series and Philips Sonicare For Kids.

Complementing these, the Sonicare Power Flosser range features a unique X-shaped nozzle that creates 4 streams for up to 99.9% plaque removal.³ The Quad Stream covers more area and requires less technique than a single stream nozzle, for fast and effective flossing.
