It’s A Matter Of Taste

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

Have you ever thought about why foods taste different?

Your tongue and the roof of your mouth are covered with tiny taste buds.  when you eat something these taste buds are responsible for converting the chemicals in to a signal to the brain.

There are four different types of taste buds

The salty/sweet taste buds are located near the front of your tongue; the sour taste buds line the sides of your tongue; and the bitter taste buds are found at the very back of your tongue

the taste buds change as you get older so this is why taste develops different as you get older .

many things can effect taste if your having problems with your taste then give us  call  on 01772 717316 or email on info@lifestyledental.co.uk .


What Is The Difference Between Power Whitening and Tray Whitening?

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Whitening – Power whitening or Professional Tray Whitening

Whitening is one of the simplest and least expensive ways to light up your smile.

It can be done at home using trays custom–made by your dentist ( at lifestyle dental these can be made within 40 minutes on the same day) and filled with one of today’s sophisticated whitening gels. The trays are worn for several hours each day until, over a period of weeks, your teeth reach the degree of whiteness you prefer. Short visits to your dentist during the whitening process help monitor the condition of your mouth and verify your progress.

For those who want faster results, power whitening, done in the dentist’s office can brighten your smile in just one or two visits.

In either case you will probably need to touch up the whitening yearly to maintain your new look.

Whether whitening is done at home or at the dentist, it’s very important to make sure your gums and teeth are healthy before you start. It’s also important to think carefully about exactly how white you’d like your teeth to be. Whitening is very effective on teeth that are naturally dark or have been stained by things like coffee, tea, tobacco and certain medications.

so if you have any more questions about whitening pleae give us a call on 01772 717316 or email info@lifestyledental.co.uk

Do you want straighter teeth but don’t want to wait for up to two years to get that great smile?

Most people would like straighter teeth although do not want to spend a year or even longer in some cases wearing  braces, yes you can get clear braces as well like Clearstep or Invisalign although these can take just as long so if your looking for a solution to get straighter teeth fast then this is for you

The six month smile system is now available at lifestyle dental by concentrating on the front teeth and the teeth that show when you smile most people can be treated within six months

The brace itself is very discreet and here is a picture of some one wearing the brace.

The brace itself consists of clear brackets and a tooth coloured wire. There can be a small amount of discomfort although this can be alleviated with painkillers available over the counter.

Once the brackets are fitted review appointments are made once every month to change the wire and do any alterations.

Most people can be treated within six – nine months

If you would like to know more then please call us now on 01772 717316 or email lifestyle dental on info@lifestyledental.co.uk


Another Testimonial …….

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

I started treatment in June

I searched for Lifestyle Dental on the internet because I was unhappy with my smile and my teeth as they were crooked and twisted.

The service here has been brilliant

My first impressions of Lifestyle Dental was that it was not like a dental practice it was clean very friendly and a very friendly team.

NowI am more confident about smiling and showing my teeth. I wanted to do this fro myself.

I think the biggest benefit of this is I feel more confident I have already recommended Lifestyle Dental to a friend
