Get Straighter Teeth Discreetly In The City Of Liverpool

Thursday, August 8th, 2013

Many orthodontic patients are looking for discreet solutions nowadays and we are proud to offer a host of invisible brace systems, including Perfect Clear.

What is Perfect Clear?

Perfect Clear is an invisible aligner system, which uses unique K positioners to gently guide the teeth into the right position and correct misalignment. The aligners are created based on impressions of your teeth and they are bespoke to ensure a perfect, comfortable fit.

What are the advantages of Perfect Clear?

Perfect Clear is a great option for patients who are looking for a flexible, convenient and comfortable treatment, which will not interfere with their image during the treatment process. The aligners are light and comfortable and they are virtually invisible so other people will not even be aware that you are wearing a brace.

Perfect Clear K positioners are removable, which means that you can clean your teeth properly and eat without any troubles; the aligners are also very easy to keep clean.

Perfect Clear positioners allow patients to get the smile they want without the worry of wearing visible braces; clear braces give patients more confidence and allow them to continue with day to day life without worrying about how they look or how other people will react to their braces.

This treatment is suitable for a wide range of patients, including those with minor and moderate issues with the bite, slight crowding and small gaps between the teeth.

Do Perfect Clear positioners hurt?

Initially you may find wearing your braces is slightly uncomfortable and your speech may be mildly affected; however, after a couple of days, you will get used to wearing them and find them very comfortable. Your speech will also return to normal very quickly. Get in touch with the team at Liverpool Dental Spa for more information.

If you’ve ever thought of having braces but been put off by the lengthy treatment times, Six Month Smiles could be the ideal solution. This innovative fixed brace system straightens the teeth in just 6 months, meaning you don’t have to wait long to show off your gorgeous new smile!

About Six Month Smiles

Six Month Smiles is a fixed brace system, which was developed in the USA. The treatment straightens the teeth in just 6 months, making it one of the fastest orthodontic treatment options on the market. Unlike traditional fixed braces, Six Month Smiles focuses solely on the teeth that you can see when smiling, which eradicates the need for unnecessary treatment and reduces treatment time considerably.

Six Month Smiles uses the latest technology to move the teeth without any pain; the wires are self-ligating to prevent friction and there are no painful metal or elastic bands. The braces are also very discreet, as the wires are tooth-coloured and the brackets are clear.

Am I a suitable candidate for Six Month Smiles?

Six Month Smile braces work quickly because they concentrate on the front teeth, known as the social 6; this means that this treatment is only suitable for patients with minor or moderate orthodontic issues, which affect the front teeth. In cases where the back teeth are affected or greater movement is required, Six Month Smiles in not the right option; however, there are many other treatments available and we can help to choose the perfect one for you.

Banish Those Wrinkles With Dermal Filler Treatment In Liverpool

Thursday, July 25th, 2013

Ageing is an inevitable process, but there are some really effective treatments available to roll back the years and create a smooth, youthful complexion. If you’re tired of zoning in on your wrinkles whenever you look in the mirror, or you’d simply like to look a little younger and fresher. Restylane could be the ideal solution.

What is Restylane?

Restylane is an anti-ageing facial treatment, which uses hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the body, to add volume and life to the skin. Hyaluronic acid hydrates the skin and adds bounce, making the skin look younger and healthier and giving you bags of confidence.

Restylane fillers are ideal for patients who have fine lines and wrinkles around the nose, mouth and eyes and they can also be used to add definition and volume to the cheeks and lips.

The procedure

The procedure is really simple and it is non-invasive. Typically, treatment takes around 30-45 minutes. Before treatment, we will discuss the procedure with the patient and decided upon the injection sites. A very fine needle will then be used to inject filler into the problem areas of the skin.

Restylane treatment is not painful and you do not need to worry about taking time off to recover or deal with unwanted side-effects. As hyaluronic acid is a natural substance, the treatment is completely safe.

How long doe the results last?

Restylane is not a permanent treatment; the results are visible very quickly after treatment and they tend to last between 9 and 12 months, but the treatment can be topped-up very easily.

If you want a younger look but you don’t fancy committing to long-term or invasive treatment, this is a great option. The results are really impressive and we always strive for a natural look; call us today to find out more! Contact the team at Liverpool Dental Spa in the heart of Liverpool for more information.

The Wand For Nervous Patients In Central Liverpool

Tuesday, July 23rd, 2013

Most of us suffer a degree of anxiety when sitting in the waiting room of a dental surgery, but for some people, a trip to the dentist is a very scary and nerve-wracking experience and dental phobia can put people off going to the dentist for several years, which puts their oral and general health at risk. At Liverpool Dental Spa we have many years of experience of treating nervous patients and we do all we can to make every patient feel as relaxed as possible. One of our most popular and effective treatments for nervous patients is The Wand.

What is The Wand?

The Wand is a device designed to benefit patients who are nervous about having dental treatment as a result of a fear of pain, needles or injections. The Wand is a painless injection, which works by controlling the flow of anaesthetic through the needle. The Wand is shaped and designed like a pen so that it does not look like a needle and the needle component is hidden to reduce anxiety.

Many people have a fear of needles and injections because they have experienced a painful injection in the past; in most cases, pain from injections results from the flow of the fluid being too fast. If the flow of the fluid is too fast, this causes a sudden, sharp pain. The Wand helps to control the flow, so that it is steady and controlled, without the risk of a sudden, painful burst.

Additional benefits

In addition to preventing painful injections, The Wand also helps to reduce anxiety caused by actually seeing the injection. It also helps to prevent numbness in the lips, cheeks and gums, which can be very uncomfortable and inconvenient after treatment.

The Wand is a really impressive, effective treatment and it can make the treatment process a lot more bearable and tolerable for nervous patients at Liverpool Dental Spa.

What Are Mini Implants And How Do They Work For Patients In Liverpool?

Thursday, July 18th, 2013

Mini dental implants are smaller versions of traditional dental implants, which may be more suitable for some patients, especially those who have low bone density in the jaw.

How are mini implants fitted?

Mini implants work in the same way as traditional dental implants; however, as they are smaller, the procedure is less invasive and the implants can be fitted into the jaw bone directly through the gums without the need for making incisions in the gum tissue. Unlike traditional implants, there is no need to wait months for the implant to integrate into the bone and in the vast majority of cases, a new restoration can be fitted immediately, leaving patients free to show off their new smile straight away.

Before the implants are fitted, the gum is anaesthetised; the procedure can also be carried out under sedation and this may be a wise choice for nervous patients. The head of the mini dental implant is located above the gum line and it can be used to anchor a dental bridge, crown or denture.

What are the benefits of mini implants?

Dental implants have many benefits and these are shared by mini implants. Mini implants are ideal for patients who may have been advised against having traditional dental implants because they lack bone density in the jaw; it is important that there is sufficient bone mass in the jaw to support a dental implant. With mini implants, the treatment will be successful even in cases where the bone mass is not as dense as it could be and there is no need for grafting or invasive surgery to build up the bone mass.

Mini implants provide robust anchorage for the new restoration and this improves functionality and ensures that patients have peace of mind that there crown, bridge or denture will not come loose.

One of the major benefits of mini implants over traditional implants is that treatment time is a lot shorter; with traditional implants, the implants are left to integrate into the bone tissue and this takes several months. In the case of mini implants, the new restorations can be fitted straight away.

Treating Snoring And Sleep Apnoea For Patients In The City Of Liverpool

Tuesday, July 16th, 2013

Snoring is a very common problem; most of us snore now and again, but for some people it is a constant issue, which may disrupt sleep and place strain and pressure on relationships.

What causes snoring?

The noises you hear when somebody next to you is snoring are made by the vibrations of the soft palate and the other soft tissues in the mouth. There are several risk factors for snoring, including being overweight or obese, sleeping on your back, drinking alcohol and suffering from illnesses, such as colds or flu and allergic rhinitis (this occurs when the inside of the nose becomes inflamed as a result of an allergy, usually to pollen).

Snoring can potentially be serious and it can have an impact on day to day life; it can also be a symptom of sleep apnoea.

What is sleep apnoea?

Sleep apnoea is a condition, which makes it very difficult to breathe during sleep; people who have severe sleep apnoea often wear oxygen masks during the night to ensure that they can breathe while they are asleep. Sleep apnoea is most common in people who are very overweight or obese; it occurs as a result of the airways becoming restricted.

Sleep apnoea can be very serious and potentially life-threatening; it is important that it is managed properly.

How can snoring and sleep apnoea be treated?

Lifestyle changes can help to ease symptoms of sleep apnoea and snoring; these changes may include avoiding alcohol in the evenings, cutting down on alcohol consumption, quitting smoking, losing weight and adopting a healthy lifestyle.

In tandem with lifestyle changes, other treatments may be beneficial. We offer specialist custom-made mouth guards to aid breathing during sleep by keeping the airways open and clear. Using a bite guard will make it easier to breathe and also restore calm to the bedroom and prevent early morning arguments caused by snoring and keeping your partner awake.

The Benefits Of Removable Braces For Patients In The Heart Of Liverpool

Saturday, July 13th, 2013

 One of the most common reasons people are put off having orthodontic treatment is that they don’t want to be lumbered with a fixed brace for months on end; thankfully, we have a number of removable appliances on offer, to give patients freedom during the treatment process.

Removable brace treatments

Removable braces are very popular because lots of patients like the fact that they have the option to remove the brace, rather than being stuck with fixed braces for a long period of time. Our most popular removable braces include Invisalign, Clearstep and Perfect Clear, all of which offer extremely discreet treatment, as well as flexibility and comfort.

Invisalign, Clearstep and Perfect Clear are all invisible aligner systems, which use a series of bespoke clear plastic aligners to move the teeth; the aligners are removable but they must be worn for a minimum amount of time per day to ensure optimum results.

Benefits of removable braces

One of the most important benefits of removable braces for patients is that they are able to take their braces out to eat and drink; this means that they can eat what they like and eat and drink without worrying about damaging their brace or getting food trapped.

Braces can also be taken out to brush the teeth, which means that you can brush thoroughly without having to navigate the brush around your braces or use specially designed brushes; this promotes good oral hygiene and reduces the risk of gum disease and decay, as well as staining.

Removable braces are also much easier to keep clean than traditional fixed braces, as you can take the brace out and soak it for a short period of time or simply use a soft brush to clean it. For more information on fixed braces contact the team at Liverpool Dental Spa.

Patients In Liverpool Can Treat Missing Teeth With Innovative Dental Implants

Thursday, July 4th, 2013

Missing teeth can cause all kinds of problems, but thankfully we have the perfect solution: dental implants.

What are dental implants?

Dental implants have revolutionised modern dentistry; they have become an increasingly popular option for patients who have lost teeth and are generally considered to be the best long-term treatment for tooth loss.

Dental implants are small titanium rods, which are implanted into the jaw bone; a hole is drilled into the bone and the implant is then placed inside the socket. The aim of the dental implant is to replace the root of the missing tooth.

Dental implants are made from titanium in order to facilitate osseointegration, the process by which the implant integrates into the bone tissue; titanium does not interfere or irritate the gums and it lasts for a very long time.

When are implants used?

One of the best things about dental implants is that they can be used to treat a wide range of patients, from those who have lost a single tooth, to those who have full sets of missing teeth. Implants are left to heal in the jaw bone and once they have integrated fully into the jaw bone, an abutment is attached, which can then be connected to a single crown, a dental bridge or a denture. Single crowns are used when a single tooth is missing, a dental bridge is used when a small number of teeth are missing and a denture is used when a full arch of teeth is missing.

What are the benefits of dental implants?

Dental implants represent the very best of modern dentistry; they look and feel like natural teeth, they function in the same way a natural teeth and there is no risk of the restoration coming loose or irritating the gums because the implant is anchored by the jaw bone. Dental implants also last a lot longer than a bridge or denture and they do not interfere with the surrounding gum or bone tissue; they can also help to reduce bone loss.
