Six Months Smiles is a revolutionary technique for correcting crooked teeth. For anyone concerned by the prospect of wearing braces and retainers for a lengthy period of time, Six Months Smiles might be just the treatment you have been waiting for.  Rather than wearing braces for as long as three years, Six Months Smiles can correct your teeth in just six months.

Incredibly versatile, Six Months Smiles can remedy the overcrowding of teeth and issues with overbite or spacing.  What’s more, the treatment is actually cheaper than traditional braces, costing only about half as much despite the increased speed of the treatment.  And treatment with Six Months Smiles is very fast indeed, about one quarter that of traditional braces.

Six Months Smiles is especially advantageous for youngsters who are put off having their teeth issues dealt with because of the prospect of having to wear an unsightly metal brace for several years, during which there is enough social awkwardness as it is.  Six Months Smiles is far more discreet, using nickel titanium wires that are matched to the colour of your teeth.

Let Liverpool Dentists Put the Sparkle into Your Smile

January 4th, 2016

Here’s a bright idea – learn more about teeth whitening at Liverpool Implants

Beige, cream, ivory…whilst all aesthetically pleasing shades, nothing beats the colour of pearly white – especially when it comes to your teeth. But with so many different treatment options available, it’s hard to know which method of whitening is worth your money and your time.

Let’s face it, whilst you might have a perfect straight set of teeth there’s no nicer  appearance than that of an added sparkle. And with several celebrities opting for instant whitening, it’s no wonder many of us are seeking out whiter smiles.

Before you make any impulse purchases, compare different products and cosmetic dentists. Search out the most positive and recent reviews, get  as much information as possible and then you can deduce which treatment is  suitable for you. Factors such as comfort, time, professionalism, reputation and whitening results are a must, as well as any other issues you feel would be relevant when whitening.

The best thing about having professional treatment is that it can be custom-made  to suit your preferences. Whether you want an ultra bright smile or maybe  a hint of whitening, it’s always good to speak to a professional regarding any  questions you have in order to get the best possible treatment.

Looking for a Liverpool dentist? We are here to help.

Once whitening has commenced, it’s easy to think that your teeth will continue to be that shade of white for a long time. At Liverpool Implants, not only will you receive the whitening treatment, but advice on aftercare to ensure your teeth stay whiter for longer.

Everything You Need to Know About Gum Contouring and Tooth Re-Shaping

December 24th, 2015

Very few people have perfect teeth, but thankfully we have some incredible techniques that can help to improve the appearance of your smile. Whether you have a gummy smile or your teeth are looking a little run-down, worn or uneven, we can help!

About gum contouring

Gum contouring is a technique that we use frequently to treat gummy smiles. A gummy smile is the name given to the look of the smile when the gums cover a larger than normal portion of the tooth crowns. Although a gummy smile won’t cause you any physical pain, the teeth may appear small and you might feel self-conscious about the look of your smile. Gum contouring, also known as gum reshaping, can help to expose more of the tooth crowns, improving the balance of the smile by making the teeth look slightly longer. Contouring is usually a single-session treatment; simply remove very tiny portions of the gum tissue and reshape the gums to create a more attractive aesthetic.

What is tooth re-shaping?

Tooth re-shaping is a cosmetic technique that involves altering the shape of the teeth very slightly to create a more attractive looking smile. This technique is perfect for those who have teeth with worn or uneven edges, chips and some teeth slightly larger than others. Contouring improves the overall look of the smile and will ensure that you feel confident when you smile and speak in public.

Our cosmetic dentists are experienced in these techniques and use their expertise and creativity to produce truly stunning results.

If you’re not happy with the look of your smile and are interested in finding out more about simple techniques that will leave you beaming from ear to ear, call us today!

Don’t Let Jaw Joint Problems Destroy Your Joy This Christmas

December 22nd, 2015

At Christmas time, you want to enjoy a few days off, sample some festive delicacies and spend time with your favourite people. You don’t want to worry about jaw joint pain. If you regularly wake up with jaw pain, headaches or toothache, now is the time to call us so we can help you banish TMJ troubles for good.

About TMJ disorder

TMJ disorder is a group of symptoms that affects the temporomandibular joint. This joint is one of the busiest joints in the body and you can feel it working if you place your fingers on the side of the face by the ears and open and close your mouth. Symptoms of TMJ disorder include:

  • clicking and popping noises when you move your jaw
  • jaw pain
  • stiffness
  • headaches and neck and shoulder pain
  • restricted movement in the jaw

Possible causes of TMJ disorder include:

  • tooth grinding
  • clenching the jaw
  • underlying health conditions (such as arthritis)

How we can help

Many cases of TMJ disorder are linked to tooth grinding, also known as bruxism. Tooth grinding can be brought on by stress and anxiety or linked to orthodontic issues and loose crowns or fillings. If you grind your teeth, we can try to determine and address the cause. This may involve repairing loose restorations, fitting braces or creating a custom-made bite guard. A bite guard is a device placed inside the mouth to prevent contact between the upper and lower arches of teeth while you sleep. We can also recommend stress management techniques.

Have a Silent Night This Christmas Thanks to Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Treatment

December 10th, 2015

If silent nights are something of a rarity in your household due to snoring or sleep apnoea, we may be able to help restore peace this Christmas.

About snoring and sleep apnoea

Snoring is a very common problem. In most cases, it is a temporary issue that often coincides with colds and coughs, drinking alcohol or sleeping on your back. In some cases, snoring is a much more frequent or long-term issue and if snoring is starting to get you down or cause problems in your relationship, it’s time to do something about it. Persistent snoring may be a sign that your body is struggling to get enough oxygen while you sleep and there may be simple steps you can take to reduce snoring and improve your quality of sleep, as well as making things more harmonious with other members of the household. The main risks factors for snoring include smoking, being overweight, drinking alcohol and sleeping in a position that makes breathing more difficult.

Sleep apnoea is not the same as snoring, but snoring is often a symptom of sleep apnoea. Sleep apnoea is a disorder that occurs when your breathing is interrupted as a result of the airway becoming obstructed when you sleep. Apnoea refers to disturbances that last at least 10 seconds. Mild sleep apnoea can often be improved by adopting healthy lifestyle choices, but in more severe cases, more intensive action should be taken.

Treating snoring and sleep apnoea

If snoring is a persistent problem or you have mild sleep apnoea, using a mandibular advancement device may be helpful. This custom-designed appliance helps to move the jaw forward, opening up the airway. Making positive changes to your lifestyle, such as giving up smoking, doing regular exercise, cutting down your alcohol intake and losing weight can also help.

Spotting the Signs of Mouth Cancer in a Screening Session

December 8th, 2015

Mouth cancer affects around 7,000 people in the UK every year. With oral cancer screening, we can help to detect problems early and ensure that treatment is administered at an early stage, when the chances of survival are much higher. At Liverpool Implant and Aesthetic Dental Spa, we strongly encourage our patients to attend regular check-ups so that we can check their dental health and have a good look around for any potential warning signs of oral cancer.

About oral cancer screening

We perform oral cancer screening as part of a routine check-up and we can also offer more thorough examinations suing the latest technology. During your screening check, your dentist will examine the soft tissue in the mouth and throat, looking out for any potential signs of abnormal tissue and noting down any changes since your last check-up. If your dentist has any concerns at all, they can recommend further testing. In the vast majority of cases, there will be nothing to worry about, but it is always best to get checked out.

Signs and symptoms of oral cancer

Although oral cancer has become increasingly prevalent in the last decade, many people are still unsure about the warning signs they should be looking out for. Here are some of the most common symptoms of oral cancer:

  • red or white patches in the mouth or throat
  • difficulty swallowing
  • oral pain
  • sore throat
  • abnormal oral bleeding
  • slow-healing mouth ulcers and sores
  • unexplained swelling
  • lumps in the mouth or throat

If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s advisable to contact your dentist or arrange a check-up or to see your GP.

If you have any questions about mouth cancer or would like to find out more about oral cancer screening, don’t hesitate to get in touch and our friendly team will be happy to help.
