Cosmetic Dentures

Dentures are used to replace missing teeth and are removable. There are two types of dentures – complete (where all your teeth are missing) or partial dentures (used to replace one or more missing teeth). These can be made of plastic or chrome (which anchor onto the remaining teeth for stability).

Oralift
A "beautifying" denture that fixes faces instead of teeth has been launched in the UK.
The device fits in the mouth and places a load on the facial muscles, improving tone and circulation.

Wearers have reported remarkable anti-ageing effects, including reduced lines and eye bags, more prominent cheekbones, smoother skin, and a firmer jaw line.

The "Oralift" denture is even said to improve hair quality and increase fullness of the lips.

It has emerged from work carried out pioneering the "dental facelift" which involves altering the height of the teeth.

A research paper published in the British Dental Journal in 2002 showed that 80 per cent of patients given the "facelift" were judged to look between five and 20 years younger.

No dental procedures required.
Unlike this technique the Oralift requires no dental procedures, such as the fitting of crowns. The tailor-made device is designed to increase the gap between the upper and lower teeth - known as the "free-way space" - which is usually no more than three millimetres.

Separating the teeth with the Oralift forces the facial muscles to adapt to a new "free way space".

This sets off a series of responses, including boosting the flow of blood and oxygen to the muscles of the face and neck, and triggering healing processes.

The appliance can be worn only at night, when it works passively, or during the day and while eating.

Daytime use involves "active exercise" and loads the facial muscles even more. Other forms of active facial exercise include talking, laughing, grimacing and chewing.
