Over the last few days we have been doing some training with the team at lifestyle dental and Laura Horton has been helping us put a treatment planning system into place.
what this means is that
people can get a didicated team member to talk to them about thier treatment and take them through the concerns and explain the treatment in non clinical terms
How do you get striaghter teeth?
You may be thining well it takes a few years and would involve metal train track braces on your teeth which dont look very good.
well there are alternatives. well quite a few alternatives lets look at the options
If you have slightly twisted or crooked teeth at the front of your mouth which just ruin your smile and lower your confidence then you could have the Clearstep brace or the Invisalign brace – these are a series of aligners which are clear and invisible (well not noticable) and when you wear each one this exherts a small amount of pressure on to the teeth and this gradually pushes the teeth into position. The degree of crowding or overlapping of your teeth will determine how long the treatment takes but even severe cases can be treated in 2 years or less.
There is also the Inman aligner
This is one of the quotes often heard it originates from Phyllis Diller, the American actress, .
so what impact does a smile have
1, Can improve your confidence people who generally smile more are deemed more confident in meetings and social gatherings
2, Make you feel good – when you smile certain chemicals are released which actually make you feel good
3, Can make others feel good – smiling is contagious smile at someone and in most cases they will smile back
so what to do if you dont have the right smile? -
well perhaps tooth whitening – to achieved a little brighter smile, or how about achieving straighter teeth with an invisible brace .
Another testimonial from a very happy person
I drove past the clinic and also saw the website. I liked the idea of the free consultation and decided to book one. It had been awhile since I had been to a dental practice and this was very clean and professional. There is nothing I would change about Lifestyle Dental I would really recommend others here too

Now that Lifestyle Dental is one year old what do we have planned for the year ahead?
Well we hope to continue to grow the practice and with the help of Jade (hygienist and therapist) the newset member of the team we are looking to increase the service we provide so that people can now recieve a tailered programme to make sure they keep thier teeth for thier life.
also in the next few months hopefully we will be looking to develop the second treatment room and look to add a second dentist to our team and thus growing the team further.
these are all developments in progress and will keep you informed.
Lifestyle Dental is now Officially One year old. Lifestyle dental opened its doors a year ago today and what a year it has been. Over the year we have taken on new team members and seen the practice membership grow.
