Make the Most of Your Smile

     

         (Family Features) A great smile is something a lot of people want. In fact, a recent survey by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) found that more people would pay to fix the quality of their teeth than pay for weight loss help.
"A nice healthy smile can be as simple as having your teeth professionally cleaned or whitened or achieved with cosmetic dentistry," said Dr. George Tysowsky who is the Vice President of Technology at Ivoclar Vivadent and Clinical Assistant Professor at the State University of New York at Buffalo, School of Dental Medicine. "The nice thing about upgrading your smile is that it's totally scalable in cost and effect. A great way for patients to start the process is to have a consultation with their dentist."
If you're thinking about improving your smile, here's what you need to know about your options:
Teeth Whitening - When you get your teeth whitened at the dentist, a bleaching agent is applied to your teeth and, sometimes, a laser is used to enhance the whitening agent. You can do it yourself with at-home bleaching kits that use peroxide to whiten teeth. You may experience increased sensitivity or gum irritation. You can also use whitening toothpastes, which have mild abrasives to remove surface stains.
Professional Cleanings - Regular cleanings from your dental hygienist are an important part of good oral health care; and they will keep your smile bright and healthy. Cleanings can help prevent gum disease, which is one of the major causes of bone loss, if left untreated. When you have dental cleanings, you're also checked for signs of oral cancer.
Restorations - Some teeth need more than a simple cleaning or brightening. Dr. Tysowsky says that one of the products your dentist might recommend is IPS e.max. "This is a dental treatment that can help improve smiles anywhere from fixing discolored or stained teeth, to correcting crooked, chipped, or decayed teeth and much more." The IPS e.max system consists entirely of metal-free materials that closely resemble the appearance of natural teeth. "Because e.max all-ceramic crowns are created from a special material called lithium disilicate, your dentist has greater ability to match your original tooth's color, consistency and physical characteristics," said Dr. Tysowsky. "It is the leading all-ceramic restoration used today; a perfect replacement to the traditional metal-based structure utilized in the past." Learn more about it at www.smiletothemax.com.
"I think the hardest part is admitting that you're not completely satisfied with your smile," said Dr. Tysowsky. "Your smile is your signature.  It tells people that you are an outgoing, confident person worth getting to know. So I recommend taking the first step and setting up an appointment with your dentist."

We all are running I guess faster than the clock. And so are our life and our health running behind us, making every effort to ask us whether we want any break?? Is our life SO busy? Don't we deserve such breaks to refresh our life? Our laptops and computers seem to be luckier than us, at least they have a refresh button and a shut down option!!
Let’s get this simple: Are you taking good care of YOUR Mental Health? Most of us would choose to spontaneously nod i acceptance and prepare huge sentences to answer this question. They would say:

Stop to smell the lavender

Aromatherapy awaits in Canada’s parcel of Provence.
StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-by Giancarlo La Giorgia - 

If you’re passing through Québec’s Eastern Townships region this summer, with the wind off Lake Memphremagog blowing just right, you may find your attention drawn by a distant, but distinct, floral perfume. That spritz of sweet-smelling air is Mother Nature’s way of advertising the Bleu Lavande lavender farm, just past the covered bridge in the rural hamlet of Fitch Bay.

Hi friends, today we will try and understand how important it is to meet Ourselves……Daily!!! If I ask you to explain your role as a son/ wife/ grandparent or as a corporate professional……..oh ho…..I am sure you have already started answering this in your mind…..isn’t it? And now if I ask you to define Yourself as a Human……just Mr./ Ms.……and most of you will be stuck on what to answer and how? Well, that is exactly how we all have conditioned our mind and have happily got accustomed to live this way. We have conveniently or sub-consciously ignored the fact that in all the roles of our life…..We are missing our own self; we have walked so far away from ourselves that now going back seems stressful, we are missing on taking a break and introspecting about ourselves and thereby, going away and at times lose touch with ourselves.

Sangeeta's Point: Color your lips

StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-You must have wondered why some lip colors look good on you and some don’t? It has all to do with your skin tone, warm or cool. Lighter skin tones are for cool colors, mostly Lilac, plums, reds with blue undertone, or colors with name of berries. Darker skin tones should always wear warm colors. These are earthy names, sandalwood, amber and rust. A lot of us argue if we should wear just one color for every outfit or have a palette of lip colors.

‘Whenever two people meet there are really six people present. There is each man as he sees himself, each man as the other person sees him, and each man as he really is’ William James.

Self esteem is a part of our image it’s also about how we look and feel about ourselves. You are motivated and confident if you have the ‘feel good about oneself’ attitude.
