Which Celebrities Give You #SmileGoals?

Monday, May 16th, 2016

Many people are encouraged to have dental work after seeing the success of the latest treatments on celebrity smiles.

Celebrity magazines are always full of stories about celebrities and their latest cosmetic surgery procedures. Many younger stars don’t need the usual types of cosmetic treatments, such as face lifts or Botox, but cosmetic dental treatment is very popular among celebrities of all ages. Many are happy to admit in the press that they have had treatment, while others try and keep it secret, despite the evidence to the contrary!

Seeing how successful a procedure like braces, veneers or whitening has been on a celebrity can inspire patients to turn up at dental clinics requesting similar treatments, so that they can get the same smile and the same look as their favourite celebrity. Some of the brightest and most dazzling famous smiles have been given a helping hand by dental practitioners, including those of Miley Cyrus, Gwen Stefani and actress Katherine Heigel.

Who’s had what done?

Miley’s perfect smile was created with the help of a set of porcelain veneers, which can cover up minor imperfections in just one appointment, while Gwen and Katherine have both had orthodontic work to correct their crooked smiles. Katherine was treated using one of the new, modern types of invisible braces, while there are many pictures of Gwen with her traditional fixed braces, which helped to create the perfect smile we can all see today.

The Kate Middleton look

Often patients will come into clinics asking for a particular celebrity’s look, even if they don’t know what treatment they have had done! The Kate Middleton look is a popular request, as ladies all over the world want to copy her perfect princess smile.

Although all the reports are only tabloid gossip, Kate is rumoured to have had orthodontic work on her teeth, using the latest 3D technology to reduce the amount of time that the patient has to wear their braces. Comparing her engagement pictures with previous newspaper shots, it appears she has also had professional teeth whitening carried out. No doubt the Kate Middleton smile will be recreated in many mouths around the world!

Invisible Braces and Healthy Teeth in Liverpool

Friday, March 4th, 2016

Invisalign is a very popular treatment, as it offers orthodontic patients a host of benefits and enables patients to get an amazing looking smile without anyone else being able to notice their braces.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is modern and innovative orthodontic treatment that straightens the teeth using a number of transparent aligners. Each aligner is slightly different and they are worn in a set order, with each one in place for two weeks.

Invisalign aligners gently guide the teeth into position and enable patients to have treatment without them having to worry about what they look like or what other people think about the fact that they are wearing braces.

Healthy teeth and gums with Invisalign

One of the things people like most about Invisalign is that the braces are removable. This means that patients have more sense of freedom and the ability to take their aligners out to clean their teeth. Braces can make oral hygiene a problem, especially as brackets and bands tend to attract food deposits and plaque. With aligners, there are no bands and brackets and you can continue to brush your teeth in the normal way, having taken your aligner out.

Is Invisalign for me?

Invisalign is suitable for most orthodontic patients and it can be used to treat a range of problems, including crooked and crowded teeth and mild or moderate issues with the bite. This treatment is a particularly attractive prospect for patients who want the results of orthodontic treatment without having to wear a visible brace.

Invisible Treatment with Invisalign Aligners

Friday, August 28th, 2015

One of the most important and popular innovations in recent years has been the introduction of the invisible brace. Now, we are able to straighten teeth with minimal impact on the look of your smile during the treatment process. Thanks to incredible treatments like Invisalign, you can obtain the smile of your dreams without anyone even knowing you’ve been wearing a brace!

About Invisalign treatment

Invisalign is an invisible brace system that offers you the opportunity to undergo treatment in secret. Unlike most other braces, this system involves using a series of custom-designed clear aligners that work to straighten your teeth without making you feel uncomfortable or embarrassed about your brace. The aligners are made from high-grade clear plastic and slide over the teeth in a similar way to a mouth guard worn for sport. Once they are in position over the teeth they are barely visible, so nobody will be able to spot them when you smile.

How does Invisalign work?

Invisalign aligners work in sequence. Each patient receives their own set of custom-fit aligners, which are fabricated based on a personalised treatment plan. The aligners are all different and are shaped to allow room for movement. The appliances generate forces that gently reposition and align the teeth. Each aligner stays in place for two weeks.

Invisalign aligners are comfortable and give you flexibility as you can remove them quickly and easily when you want to eat, drink or brush your teeth. We recommend wearing the aligners for at least 21 hours each day to ensure the best possible results.

Is Invisalign for me?

Invisalign is generally suited to those with minor or moderate issues and is an excellent choice for those wishing to enjoy convenience, comfort and discretion. If you like the sound of Invisalign and have been dreaming of an invisible solution for orthodontic problems, call today and we’ll have you beaming in no time!

Improve Your Smile with Invisalign

Friday, February 6th, 2015

Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment that promises to improve the look of your smile with minimal fuss and virtual invisibility. If you’ve been looking for a treatment that enables you to enjoy a beautiful smile without dealing with the stigma of wearing a visible brace, Invisalign is just what you’ve been searching for.

Invisalign clear braces offer an amazing alternative to traditional fixed braces for adults and teenagers, and they give you the option to go through treatment without anyone even being able to tell that you’re wearing a brace.

How does Invisalign work?

Invisalign treatment involves wearing multiple removable appliances that are made according to your personalised treatment plan. We use sophisticated computer software to plot the movement of the teeth and the individual plan is used to create your Invisalign aligners. Each patient receives a set of bespoke aligners and they are designed to be worn in order, with each aligner placed over the teeth for two weeks and then swapped until the treatment is complete.

Invisalign aligners produce gentle forces that move the teeth over the course of time. The aligners are shaped differently to allow room for tooth movement.

What do Invisalign aligners look like?

Invisalign aligners are made from clear plastic and they look similar to a mouth guard, which is worn for sport. They are thin and light and they simply slide over the teeth. Once they are on your teeth they are virtually invisible, so you can smile without the anxiety of showing people your brace.

How long does treatment take?

Invisalign treatment is not usually a quick-fix, but it does provide an excellent solution for patients who require minor or moderate correction. On average treatment takes around 12 months. However, times vary according to how much movement is required.

Perfect Orthodontic Treatment with Invisible Braces in Liverpool

Friday, August 15th, 2014

At Liverpool Dental Spa we know that you like to look your best, and have amazing invisible braces to help you achieve a perfect smile without anyone else being able to spot your braces. With invisible braces, we can transform your smile in secret and you don’t need to worry about smiling in public and showcasing a load of metal or feeling anxious about what others may say about you having braces.

About our invisible braces

We offer a range of clear brace orthodontic solutions to allow you to enjoy your treatment on the down low. Our treatments include Perfect Clear, Invisalign, Clearstep and Simpli5. We also offer 6 Month Smiles, Damon Braces and CFast, all of which are extremely discreet.

Clearstep, Invisalign and Simpli5 are all aligner systems, which have a similar approach to treatment. These removable aligners are made from clear plastic and each treatment works in a series, with patients wearing a number of different aligners; the number of aligners usually depends on the complexity of the prescription, apart from Simpli5, which uses five aligners. Perfect Clear is another similar system, which uses bespoke, clear positioners to move the teeth.

CFast, 6 Month Smiles and Damon Clear are fixed brace systems, which offer much more discretion than traditional fixed braces. Often, fixed braces are preferable when a lot of movement is needed, as they provide greater support for the teeth.

Before we start any treatment, we hold consultations to determine your needs, analyse your bite and discuss the options with you.

Perfect Clear Braces So That Patients In Liverpool Can Smile In Confidence

Thursday, September 20th, 2012

For most people having to wear a brace on their teeth for several months can be quite daunting. Traditionally, they were forced to wear something that was either uncomfortable or garish to look at or both.

However in recent years, technological research has developed a range of new braces which are not only much more comfortable to wear but are also aesthetically pleasing.

But even so, for many people it would be even better to have something that is invisible or at least almost invisible to look at. And that’s where Invisalign braces come into their own. They could even be called the perfect brace.

Invisalign braces use a series of clear, removable teeth aligners whereas traditional braces tend to have fixed parts which over time can cause some discomfort as well as embarrassment for the wearer.

Invisalign braces on the other hand are effectively clear and can be removed when necessary.

Advantages of Clear Braces

The main advantage to wearing such braces is cosmetic. The aligners are completely transparent and therefore unobtrusive.

Also, since the aligners can be removed, food can be eaten without any of the parts getting in the way. Moreover it makes cleaning teeth and gums much easier.

While not proved, it is also said that the actual process of fitting clear braces is a lot quicker than fitting traditional fixed metal braces. Further they are said to work faster at straightening the teeth.

Disadvantages of Clear Braces

While clear braces have advantages for the fashion conscious individual they are not perfect in every way. There are some disadvantages to wearing them. For example, fitting them does depend on the cooperation of the patient. Further, ensuring they remain in place when needed is out of control of the dentist.

Similarly, since they are removable they can perhaps be lost. What’s more, they are more expensive than traditional methods, so losing them can be costly in more ways than one.

Patients’ habits can also affect the wear of the device. For instance, if the individual grinds his or her teeth this can easily damage the aligners.

Finally, the aligners are known to cause minor allergic reactions in some patients, such as a sore throat, a cough or in more severe cases, nausea.
