Pearly Whites
Zoom Advanced Power is the world's number 1 light activation
whitening system and the hot procedure of celebrity smiles.
The people at Zoom Advanced Power tell us that clinical tests
have shown the process is harmless to enamel, composites
and dental work. It's an in chair procedure operated by a den-
tist which means you can lie back and watch a DVD whilst the
machine does the work.
First a hydrogen peroxide whitening gel is applied, and then
a large light is placed over the area emitting a `blue spectrum'
light. The light activates the gel whitening your teeth up to 8
shades whiter. After the four 15 minute sessions you may feel
like a celebrity, and you'll certainly want to fl ash your new
look pearly whites at every opportunity.

Straighten Up
Teeth straightening methods have come a long way since
the teen angst years of thick wire braces. If you weren't
amongst the lucky teens whose parents took you off to the
orthodontist to straighten your smile before you hit driving
age, then you'll be most pleased with the developments that
Invisalign have made.
The treatment is virtually invisible, allowing you to smile
confi dently whilst your teeth are being straightened.
Invisalign uses a series of clear, plastic, removable `align-
ers' that gently move teeth to desired fi nal positions. Cut-
ting-edge three dimensional computer graphics and pat-
ented software is used to manufacture individual Invisalign
Aligners for each patient. You wear each set of aligners for
approximately two weeks before moving on to the next set
in the series.
You can even view your own virtual treatment plan
via computer, enabling you to see how your teeth will
look once you've completed the treatment. Treat-
ment duration varies from patient to patient, however,
typically after six to fourteen months; you will be left with the
straight teeth you always wanted.
