Dermal fillers are used to remove or reduce lines, folds and wrinkles on any area of the face. They are based on hyaluronic acid, a clear gel, which is found naturally in skin which gives it its elasticity and as we age is degraded so that wrinkles form and skin becomes more lax. The main fillers used are Hydrafill, Restylane and Juvederm. There are other fillers on the market but from our research over the years these have proved to be the most effective.

How are they used?

After a local numbing of the skin (if needed) the fillers are injected into the specific area to be treated. They work immediately to lift the skin and soften the lines but after a couple of days when any redness has subsided their overall effect improves. These fillers can also be used to define lips or to fill them out to increase the 'pout'. The time they last can vary but on average we have found them to last around 12 months making this a very cost effective treatment.

It is a temporary dermal filler and is naturally broken down. Hyaluronic acid is less likely to cause allergic reactions than any other type of filler

TOOTH WHITENING

How Does It Work?

WY10 contains a purer form of hydrogen peroxide. With fewer additives holding back its chemical reactions, its active ingredient penetrates the enamel and dentine to reach the stain molecules much faster. The lower viscosity allows the gel to adhere to the teeth more readily increasing contact area. Being completely water-based, the gel is readily absorbed into the teeth structure. The WY10 patent-pending organic activator reacts with the hydrogen peroxide and triggers the release of active components at over ten times its normal rate. The culminating result is a gel that produces results fast.

Is It Cost Effective?

The unit costs of the WY10 products are highly competitive with leading brands. However when the saving in chair time is factored in the cost effectiveness of the WY10 products is way above the other brands.

What causes staining of the teeth?

There are many factors that can cause staining. Coffee, tea, red wine, smoking all cause tooth discolouration. In childhood, taking antibiotics such as tetracycline can cause teeth to become darker.

What does home whitening involve?

The professional home whitening treatment allows you to carry out teeth whitening procedure in the comfort of your own home or work place, and yet benefit from the professional advice of a dentist. I initially check your teeth to ensure they are suitable for whitening. Impressions of your teeth are taken, from which two thin patented customised Perfect Trays are moulded. These precision trays fit your teeth perfectly and comfortably.

We will then explain how to apply the whitening gel to the trays and how to correctly place these trays on your teeth. For best results, these trays should be worn for half an hour, twice a day for two weeks.

How long do the results last?

The teeth will always be lighter than they were. However, some people may want to touch-up their teeth by re-whitening for one to two days, usually once or twice a year. This is especially useful if they continue to use staining substances such as coffee or tobacco products.

Is teeth whitening safe?

Yes! Research and clinical studies indicate that whitening teeth with hydrogen peroxide under supervision is safe for teeth and gums.

What are the side effects?

Some people experience temporary teeth sensitivity during the treatment. These symptoms always disappear within 1-2 days after interruption or completion of the treatment.
