Zoom whitening

The most painful tooth whitening system available. Performed by a dental technician, the Zoom whitening system can make your teeth up to eight shades lighter in just 45 minutes.

The Zoom whitening system consists of a high-concentration bleaching gel (a.k.a. hydrogen peroxide) and an ultraviolet light. The UV light accelerates the bleaching process and helps the hydrogen peroxide penetrate your teeth. The gel is applied for three 15-minute sessions for a total treatment time of 45 minutes.

Zoom whitening hurts like a motherfucker, which is why at-home whitening systems are still available. Custom-molded trays filled with dentist-dispensed gel are worn 1-2 hours a day for up to 14 days. Tooth sensitivity is less severe and should subside after a couple of days.
The Zoom whitening procedure begins with a plastic piece being placed in your mouth to hold it open (if you have a strong gag reflex, you won't last the entire procedure). A blue coating is painted onto your gums to prevent chemical burns. The whitening gel is then applied and an ultraviolet light is placed near your mouth. Protective eyewear is provided.

Zoom lens

The lazy man's dolly or tracking shot. Used effectively only in cases where speed is needed to grab the audiences' attention.
"We're losing light. Let's use a zoom lens instead of going through the difficulties of pre-planning and executing a superior tracking shot."

Zoom Bag

1) A person who uses Zoom meetings to escape their usual duties around the house, trying to cover for their general laziness by claiming fake Zoom meetings (aka' Douche Bag' before the Covid days)
2) Taking a picture of your hairy nuts, and than Zoom-bombing a room with it, setting that picture as your background and covering your webcam. The picture of your nuts is the 'Zoom Bag'. Similar to tea bagging, just in the virtual realm.
1) Honey, I can't leave my basement office bunker now, you'll have to feed our toddler and give him a bath. I know it's unusual, but I have a work Zoom from 6pm-9pm today. It sucks, I know. Please try to understand... (while I take a nice nap on the basement couch). ZOOM BAG!
2) Hi everyone, here's my nuts in Zoom. How y'all like that? Eat that Zoom Bag!
