Oralift Appliances
Reversing the signs of ageing
The Oralift® technique has been developed over many years by leading London dentist Dr Nick Mohindra and produces a subtle but significant improvement in muscle tone with the effect of improving the appearance of the skin and shape of face and reduction in wrinkles.
Retraining the facial muscles
The treatment works on the principle of giving the facial muscles more stimulation so increases their blood supply and muscle tone. To achieve this the patient wears a small appliance over the lower teeth and concentrates on stopping the upper teeth from touching it. It is a gradual technique whereby the time of wearing the appliance is gradually increased, as is the height of the appliance. Rest days between wearing it are essential as the muscles must also have time to regenerate. The initial period of wear is four months, but after a rest of a further four months it can proceed again and continual improvements in appearance have been recorded over many years.
It is essential that patients wishing this technique should have lower back teeth, although these could have been replaced with dentures or implant-retained restorations.
