Acid Reflux – Common Drug Treatments Jan 12th 2012, 10:32 Although it is absolutely vital to realise that acid reflux is a serious problem and often needs proper medical attention, it is possible to reduce symptoms with drug treatments. Many drugs are registered with medical authorities for use with stomach acid and acid reflux. These drugs are used in the relief of symptoms and are among the most widely prescribed drugs in Western medicine. It is important that these medications are used under proper supervision, as some common over the counter antacid treatments can actually impair the effectiveness of other treatments they are taken with. Proton pump inhibiting drugs are the most effective form of drug in reducing the production of stomach acid available today. These drugs have a powerful and long lasting effect, which has made them among the best selling drugs in the world. Because these drugs are so effective in reducing stomach acid, they can be used to create an environment to facilitate the healing of duodenal ulcers. If anything, they can be too effective to use for cases of acid reflux. This is because the lack of acid production in the stomach can lead to impaired absorption of vital nutrients, including calcium, which is necessary for healthy bones and teeth. Some form of supplementation is advisable to counter this. Antacids are very common over the counter medicines used for temporary symptomatic relief from acid reflux. They are only suitable for short-term relief and have no long-term effect in reducing the symptoms, or helping to cure the underlying condition. Antacids should be used sparingly, as they have many unpleasant side effects; some of them potentially serious. Severe constipation can be caused by antacids which contain aluminum or calcium salts. Calcium salts may also lead to renal stones. Magnesium can also be problematic, with the possibility of renal failure or problems with the neurological or cardiovascular systems. Sodium can be even more dangerous, leading to potential heart failure. The proton pump inhibitors described earlier has largely superseded H2-receptor antagonist drugs. They still have several advantages over common antacid drugs, however. Their action lasts much longer – up to five or six times as long – and they can be taken in advance, before meals, to prevent the acid reflux occurring in the first place. These drugs are also considerably less prone to unpleasant side effects, with the notable exception of cimetidine. This one particular drug has many common side effects that include dizziness and headaches, tiredness and confusion and bowel problems such as diarrhoea or constipation. It is extremely inadvisable to use over the counter remedies for extended periods of time and especially unwise to take any medicine for long periods without consulting a qualified physician. Antacids should only be used on rare occasions when absolutely necessary. However, pharmaceutical treatments do have a proven record of alleviating the symptoms of acid reflux and even helping to counter the illness in the long term. The modern proton pump inhibitors have proven especially effective. Used properly, in conjunction with the advice of a competent physician, these advanced medical treatments can be of great benefit to the long-term acid reflux sufferer.

Pakistani Pop Music Jan 12th 2012, 10:13 Pakistan is blessed with talent and when we talk about Pakistani Music, you can never stop picking up one of the best Pakistani pop song uptill now because there are number of such hit songs nobody can judge the best one in past decades such as “Dil Dil Pakistan” , “Huwa Huwa”, “Mehndi ki Raat”, “Na Kaho”, “Dil Haray”, “Ankhain Milanay Walay”, “Wakt”, “Neeli Neeli Ankhain”, “Jaisay Chao Jeo”, “Garuj Burus”, “No More”, “Ankhoun ki Sagar”, “Na Tu Aigi”, “Addat” left the audience agape and many more. Our artists’ are popular all over the world. Many new talented artists in Pakistan are still working hard to bring quality Pakistani music. We can easily judge Alamgir as the pioneer of music industry who’s first big hit was “DEKHA NA THA KABHI HUM NAY YEH SUMMA”, and remains the song he is still most identified with, though later songs such as “Yeh Shaam Aur Tera Naam” and “Mein Ne Tumhare Gagar Se Kabhi Pani” continued to add to his composition. Alamgir, it must be said, laid the groundwork that countless others used to break into the music industry. He not only sang well, he was a performer in the true sense of the word. There is no denying Alamgir’s contribution to the evolution of the pop music genre in Pakistan. NAZIA HASSAN was the first one to cross the forbidden Pakistan-India border to sing in an Indian film called “Qurbani” which was “APP JAISA KOI”. And later this song became a youth anthem in both India and Pakistan. And next NAZIA, ZOHAIB and BIDDU (an Indian composer) teamed up to release “DISCO DEEWANE” which became the biggest pop selling album till then in Pakistan. The Hasan siblings released one more album, “Boom Boom”, in 1984. This second collaboration with Biddu, the undisputed king of Indian filmi disco music, was also a huge success. Their success marked a turning point in the pop history. And later Vital Sign ventured on to Pakistani television screens with their guitars and a catchy, patriotic song named “Dil Dil Pakistan” in 1986. Their album released in 1987 with gems like “Yeh Shaam” and funky “Goray Rung Ka Zamana”. Then came Jupitars with their evergreen hit songs “Yaroun Yehi Dosti Hai”, continued with Hassan Jehangir’s “Hawa Hawa” in 1990, “Sanwali Saloni” by Vital Signs in 1991, “Sar Kiye Yeh Pahar” in 1992 by the Strings, Sajjad Ali’s “Didi” ripoff “Babia” in 1993, Najam Shiraz’s “In Se Nain” in 1995, Junoon’s “Saeein” in 1996 or Awaz’s “Mr. Fraudiye” in 1997. Junoon came into the race with their World Cup Hit song “Jazaba-e-Junoon Tou Himat na Har”. This is only to be expected in a growing industry. Perhaps the biggest unexpected success of an experimental song, however, was Sajjad Ali’s street-wise 1995 hit “Chief Saab”. Full of Karachi slang and tough imagery, “Chief Saab”, perhaps more than anything else signified the coming age of pop music. It showed that one did not necessarily have to remain within pre-determined saccharine-sweet boundaries to be popular, and that people liked hearing of issues other than puppy love. Partly, as a result of this expansion of the pop market, established musicians from non-pop genres such as qawwali maestro Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan were also drawn towards experimenting within it. Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan gave numerous hit one after another and he gave the music for Hollywood movies and as well as for many Bollywood movies too. The pop band that most successfully seized upon this idea was, of course, Junoon, which used its success with the haunting “Saeein” to recast itself as a completely different sort of band. Here we saw pop again intersecting with folk and vice versa. In 1994, FM radio brought about another mini-revolution in Pakistani music. From Landhi in Karachi to Krishan Nagar in Lahore, names like female vocalist Hadiqa Kiyani and young Shehzad Roy suddenly became household names. Even iconoclastic recluse virtuosos like guitarist Amir Zaki (whose almost purely instrumental album “Signature” did well in the market) were receiving the kind of airplay the big bands of the ’80s could only have dreamed of.. Pop industry had big turnaround when private channels came into the scene, Like IM which became the medium to introduce young talents in the pop industry names like Fuzon, Aaroh, noori, Aks, Ahmad Jehanzaib, Mizraab, Karavan, Ali Zafar, Jal which not only rock the Pakistani pop music but also made their names worldwide. The new arrivals made their presence felt through remarkable individual songs, even though full albums for now seemed beyond most new acts. Ahmad Jehanzaib’s Ek Bar Kaho, Fuzon’s Ankhon Ke Saagar and Schehzad Mughal’s Bas Yunheen were each excellent. The first two were carried by soulful, ardent vocals and the last shone through affecting lyrics. Hot on their heels, honourable mentions must also go to Aks stunningly understated Neela Aasman, noori’s jangle-pop perfection Tum Hans Diyae, Junoon’s excellent Garaj Baras, Sajjad Ali with Teri Yaad, Aamir Zaki’s insightful and incisive People Are People, EP’s piledriving Hum Ko Aazma, Najam’s infinitely catchy ! Jaisay Chaho Jiyo and Aao Wahan Chalain, Ali Zafar’s startling Chanoo ki Ankh, Jal’s splendid addat and yes even Ali Haider’s insipid but still memorably melodic Chandi Ratain. Abrar’s Preeto was the novelty hit of the year. The Pepsi Battle of the Bands did a great job in throwing up a wealth of talent. EP, Aaroh, Brain Massala, Messiah, Schahzad Hameed and others all have Pepsi to thank. The Pepsi Battle of the Bands got all these fledgling bands great exposure. Recently, a team of talented Pakistani musicians and artists took the long road to Mumbai, via Dubai, possibly to make history, for this was the first time in recent memory that Pakistanis had gone to India to create the background score for a Bollywood film. The film in question is Pooja Bhatt’s Paap, and former Vital Sign Shehzad ‘Shahi’ Hasan, cinematographer Faisal Rafi, singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and studio session player and keyboardist Faiz Ali Naqvi, were the foursome representing the world of Pakistani music in India. Strings enjoyed considerable success with Dhaani. Probably the most hyped album of the year, with lead single Chaaye Chaaye being the standout favourite. String gave the soundtrack for Spiderman 2 which was a remarkable effort. Junaid Jamshed’s Dil Ki Baat was understated but assured and notwithstanding JJ’s quite public and tortured ruminations over religion and music, the album showed that JJ is still competent at middle of the road pop and that Shoaib Mansoor still has the magic touch. Shahzad Roy’s Rab Jane was hobbled by his illness and yet catches the fire while Karavan’s Gardish seems to have suddenly picked up and was sold like hot-cakes. Schahzad Mughal’s Jhoom Lay was one of the most pleasant of surprises of the year. So this proves that our music industry has dared to move forward with hope rather than skepticism.

Prague Places

Meaning of The Star of David Jan 12th 2012, 10:34 The Star of David is religious symbol for Jewish people, but not many people know the meaning of the symbol. The star is made up of 2 superimposed triangles forming a 6-point star. In Hebrew, the star is called Magen David, which translates to Shield of David. The star is also part of Israel’s national flag and denotes unity. How the Star of David came about is not very clear. However, there is evidence that in the ancient times, the star was used by both the Muslims and Christians. Strangely, the star is more often linked with King Solomon instead of King David. And, in the rabbinic texts, there was no mention of the star until the Middle Ages. After this period, the star got connected with spiritualism by the Kabbalah followers. It was the year 1354 when the Star of David was used for the first time as Jewish symbol. This even took place in Prague when Emperor Charles IV allowed the Jewish people to have their own flag. The people choose this symbol for their flag. In 1500s, when the emperor visited Prague, he was welcomed with banners displaying the star. In the 1600s, Prague was ruled by Emperor Ferdinand II and during this time the Swedish attacked the city. It was the Jewish people of the city who helped to defend it. To show his appreciation, the emperor allowed the people to take on a coat of arms. This was indeed an honor as it was only the rights of the nobility to have coat of arms. The history on why the Star of David is a symbol of Judaism is still not clear. Some experts contend that when Jerusalem was under siege by Alexander the Great and while defending their city, the Jewish soldiers had a 6-point star on their shields where one star marked King David, while the other was for the Messiah, the king’s descendent. Whatever were the reasons for adopting the star as a symbol of Judaism, the star became omnipotent all Jewish architectures and religious sites. During the Second World War, all Jewish people had to wear yellow colored Star of David, which was seen as a badge of shame. However, after the war, the star attained the status of honor and respect. Today, the meaning of Star of David is hope and security all any Jewish person who looks for it. The star has several symbolic meanings attached to it. For instance, the triangle pointing upwards denotes good deeds that are reaching out to the heavens to attract goodness to the earth. While, the inverted triangle is symbolic of that goodness reaching out to the earth. Others contend that the star is indicative of God’s absolute rule across the entire universe, and all directions are under the rule of God. The star could also symbolize good and evil. Another symbolic meaning of the star is the relationship between the Jewish people and God. The triangle pointing upwards symbolizes God, while the one pointing downwards symbolizes the Jewish people.

China Travel Tips Jan 12th 2012, 11:56 Survival China Travel Tips and Tricks These China Travel Tips, Survival Techniques, will help you get around and make your trip to China easier, so you will be able to experience the real China with a little less stress. China is an odd beast that needs to be respected; the major cities, Beijing, Shanghai, and Xian, all have their own personalities. Some complex situations that you think would be an organizational disaster turn out to be great and you wonder afterward what all the fuss and worry was about. Then the simplest of tasks can turn out to be a major calamity. This is when you have what we call here a “China day”. These days come and go and are part of the experience of everyday travel in China. One needs to have an open mind when travelling China. It is a place with thousands of years of history and culture that is trying overnight to adapt to Western ways of living. You need to have a very open mind when you Travel in China. I have listed below a few China Travel Tips that will make life that wee bit more bearable on your Travel China experience. China Travel Tips – Be Toilet Wise o Never expect a clean toilet 100% of the time. o Be prepared; Carry some tissue. o You may have to use a squat toilet, again if you know this before hand it is not a shock. If you don’t know how to use a squat toilet, try the following experiment at home. While holding onto something for support with both hands, lower your body down into a low squat position, so that the cheeks of your bottom is almost touching your heels or the back of your calf. Now, let go with your hands. See if you stay in this position for at least 1 minute. If you fall backwards or you cannot get up, then a squat toilet could be a problem for you! Practice, you will be happy you did. o If you see a clean toilet, Go… it may not come again for a while. o There are many public toilets around the cities, usually the ones you pay for are OK, (RMB .5), the others best to stay away from if you can. You will soon notice them as you walk around the cities. o Be warned that public areas like bus and train stations are usually what I class as “tough toilets”, however if gotta go you gotta go. o Outside of the major cities, the toilet systems are old or have very narrow plumbing /pipes and get blocked easily. In these cases a small basket is usually beside the toilet, this is for your used toilet paper. One of the best China Travel toilet Tips I can give you, is use hotel lobby toilets; these are everywhere and are always clean. Still they may not always have toilet paper. It depends on the class of hotel that you are using. I do not wish to scare you. However, of all the China Travel Tips in all the other web sites I have read, this is a topic not often mentioned, but it is very important to us all. So outside of the major cities conditions can be tough. But most of the time everything will be fine, especially if you book a tour; everything will have been checked out before hand. However even the best laid plans can go wrong, so be prepared, the toilets in the smaller cities, towns and villages can be scary. China Travel Tips – The Food o The food is great and the variety is overwhelming. Most of the time you get to choose what you eat, or you can recognize what you’re eating, however sometimes you do not get a choice. Carry a chocolate bar or something; this will keep you going until some food that you can recognize turns up. Drink bottled or boiled water, as the tap water is NOT safe to drink, this is for the whole of China. Even boiled water, while sterilised can contain a lot of minerals and iron deposits that you probably do not want in your system. The safest bet is to drink bottle water. Tap water in most big cities is OK for brushing teeth. o Eating habits – Most Chinese people have a great habit of being very noisy when they eat and lunch and dinner times can be a wonderfully noisy celebration, food tends to go in all directions, its just part of being in China. o People also smoke at the table while everyone is eating, so some restaurants get very loud and smoky. o If you get stuck what to order as most of the menu’s are in Chinese just look at the table next to you and point to the dish you fancy and ask how much it is, this system works really well and know seems to mind. o I have a basic menu that will help you order safe food, (no Cats or Dog) this will enable you to visit a larger selection of restaurants, not just the tourist ones with high prices. You can carry it with you and use it in the local restaurants where most will be able to serve what is on it. This way you will know what you are eating. These local places are very cheap and the food it great. Contact me if you would like me to send it to you. China Travel Tips – Taxis o China Travel Tips- Taxis – Taxis are an experience that can have you griping the seat and gasping for breath; however you soon get used to it, after the first few rides, you’re an old hand. o The taxis in Shanghai are, overall, quite good. Try to get the Blue, Blue’ish Turquoise, Gold and White taxis, these are the best… these are the four major taxi companies and are generally recognised by their single colour paintwork. The others are OK, just older and a rougher ride (the others also may have faulty metres). No drivers will speak English. o Carry your hotel or accommodation business card with you, written in Chinese, this helps if you get lost walking around town. o In all the taxis around the country you will see the drivers name and taxi registration number in plain sight. If you have any problem, or if you think you have been over charged etc, just take this number down, make a big fuss about it, and the driver then should wake up and fix whatever problem you have. Even better is to take the receipt. This has all the trip details on it and you can ring the taxi company if you want to take things further or if you’ve left something in the taxi. o The government takes rip-off drivers in all cities, Beijing and Xian especially, very seriously and if you complain they will lose their license. This is their livelihood. So far I have had not one driver in 3 years that has not backed down and we have then agreed a price for the trip or solved our problem. o In Shanghai, it is common practice for taxi fare increases after 11pm. However, one can usually bargain for a 20% discount, which will get the fare back to the pre-11pm rate. Be strong with the taxi drivers, never-the-less, keep your cool, smile and negotiate. China Travel Tips – Shopping o China Travel Tips – Shopping – China is a shopper’s paradise, Markets, Bargains; Top labels… anything and everything if you have the time. With clothes, the larger (Western) sizes can be quite hard to find, however in the major cities where you get a lot of tourist traffic, you can find them. o Electrical gear, DVD’s, Cameras, stuff like this is not worth buying in China, Hong Kong is still the best place for this. o Store hours in the major cities are from 10am to 10pm, 7 days a week. o Visa card is still the best card to carry, with ATM’s in good supply all with PLUS access etc. There is usually a surcharge for use of VISA, MasterCard or other forms of credit card. o Wait on purchasing if you can, look around to get a feel for the prices. The Chinese are VERY experienced at selling and know that we halve the opening price when bargaining. In the markets go for 25% of what they first ask; go so low that they let you walk away. This will give you an idea of the bottom price. The resulting end-price will probably be around 40% to 50% of where they started. Whatever the market people say, they are used to pushing and haggling for best prices. Do not worry about being too hard, they are used to it and will not sell you an item unless they make a profit. Don’t be concerned with the apparently hurt body language when you go low – it is all part of the game. As soon as they have wrapped up your first purchase, they will try to sell you something more. Remember to keep smiling and having fun while bargaining. China Travel Tips – Medical Treatment and Records o Most hotels will have a doctor that you can see. In the major hotels English will be spoken. o Always take a small first aid kit, cold remedy, headache tablets at the very least. WATSONS is a very large chain chemist. Most of the remedies, tablets etc, that you may require should be in these shops. These shops are all over China.. o There is a great network of pharmacy type shops; these are indicated by a Green Cross. There will always be a 24 hr Green Cross pharmacy in the city you are in. It is handy to carry a Phase book, as no one will speak English, however you will end up with something that will help. o INPORTANT POINT – for most of the mass produced packet type medicines, the packaging will be written in Chinese on one side, English on the other. However in the shops you only see the Chinese side. Have a good look, turn the packs over, it gives you a lot more confidence knowing you can read the package. o If you have a specific medical issue, take records, most of the Doctors will have OK written / reading English, even though their oral English will be poor.. China Travel Tips – Telephone o Using the phone is as easy as at home. However the person picking it up will not speak English or have very broken English… the Major 4- or 5-Star Hotels will all be OK. o What is worth doing is buying a Chinese Telecom SIM card, they are about RMB100 and with this you get RMB50 in calls, the other 50 is for the price of the SIM card; this SIM card will go into all major brand phones and work OK. By doing this, people can reach you within and out of China if there is an emergency. If you have a couple of phones, you can short (txt) message each other (SMS). Also you are able to call your tourist guide, hotel etc if you have any major problems. It is a cheap way to keep in touch. NB.Before you buy a Chinese SIM card, check that it will work in your Cell / Mobile phone. There are plenty of China Telecom shops that can help. China Travel Tips on when NOT to move around China. o Spring Festival, this would be the Chinese New Year time, around the end of January / Early February o Early May; Labour day Holidays o Early October; National Day Holidays Of all the China Travel Tips National Day is the biggest one. Millions of Chinese travel at these holiday times of the year. Most are travelling back to home towns or visiting family. Hotels, trains, planes, cars, buses, and roads are all crowded to the maximum. Major congestion, everywhere. Also travel fares are at their full price. No discounts are offered! Stay in one place and enjoy where you are. It’s best and causes fewer hassles. China Travel Tips – TV o If you want to watch TV, most of the major hotels will have cable and if you are in the smaller places, the national channel, CCTV9 is in English. Over the last couple of years it has got a lot better, with some great China Travel Tips programs, news and views on people and places around China. China Travel Tips – Airport Tax o There is a “construction fee” at almost all airports. Domestic flights RMB 50 International flights RMB 90 – which is to be paid in local currency. Just recently, tickets are being tissued with the Construction Tax included; however make sure you have the Tax money with you just to make sure. I hope some of these China Travel Tips will come in handy and will make your trip to China that little bit easier. If you have been to China and wish to share your China Travel Tips, please feel free to contact me anytime.

Postmodernism Art Jan 12th 2012, 11:33 The term, Postmodernism, refers to art, literature, politics, social philosophy and other aspects of contemporary society. The American Heritage Dictionary defines postmodernism: “Of or relating to art, architecture, or literature that reacts against earlier modernist principles, as by reintroducing traditional or classical elements of style or by carrying modernist styles or practices to extremes.” Postmodernism often refers to art in which the defining line between painting and sculpture is often blurred. These artists adopt, borrow, steal, recycle and sample from earlier modern and classical works. They combine or alter these images to create new, contemporary pieces. They also work with and combine artistic, scientific, technological, media and digital/Internet tools. While postmodernism and postmodern art have been around for only 50 years, before then, creative people lived and worked according to their principles. Two historical artists, Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) and Louis Daguerre (1787-1851), could be called postmodernists. Da Vinci was a writer, architect, painter, sculptor, botanist, engineer, mathematician, musician, city planner, set designer and philosopher. Daguerre was an artist and scientist, known for the invention of the daguerreotype process of photography, an architect, theater designer, panoramic painter and inventor of the Diorama. Steve Furman, creator of the blog, expedientmeans.com, is a contemporary postmodernist. He explains, “My serious interests in art, society, media and technology led me naturally to the web… I write observations about this rapid convergence and invite comments…this weblog…is a useful framework for explaining complex designs and interactions, as well as helping one understand human behavior.” He says in his blog, “I have become a postmodernist without even knowing it… Postmodernists look at modernism and say, ‘There is something missing. This could be done more effectively.’ A postmodernist recycles, borrows, decompiles and rebuilds classic modern executions into a postmodern construct that can be more easily understood and consumed. We are obsessed with organizing knowledge and putting it to use in the most functional way possible. Postmodernists posit that knowledge should be used for doing, not just knowing.” An article appearing recently in The Examiner by Jim Benz, says, “Ideally, postmodern art explores subjective, daily life by whatever criteria, material, or method the artist deems effective. Frequently, the material might not exist entirely within the art work itself, but instead be composed of the social forces from which the work takes its context, including the role of the viewer, the museum or gallery, the means of production, or the specific site of display.” Postmodern art is breaking new ground while mirroring and organizing our confusing and evolving world. Looking at contemporary art and postmodernism often requires viewers to see beyond their normal perspectives, to find new paradigms and to expand their understanding of the larger world. Jim Benz adds in his Examiner piece, “Modernism celebrates the ability of the artist to create profound, timeless meanings via the art work. Postmodernism works with meanings which arise not only from the artist but also from the milieu of cultural influences embodied within the viewer, through whom meaning is in a continual process of re-creation.”

Popular Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures For a Beautiful Smile Jan 12th 2012, 12:01 Cosmetic dentistry can radically change how you feel about your smile. Popular cosmetic dentistry procedures include dental implants, veneers, crowns, bridgework, reconstructive and Zoom 2 whitening. Dental Implants If you have missing teeth that you wish to correct through cosmetic dentistry you will be interested in dental implants. Implants are surgically screwed into your jaw bone to appear as a natural tooth (or teeth). Many dental practices utilise treatment planning and surgical implementation software systems to help guide the successful placement of implants into your mouth. Your dentist will first have to ensure that you have enough bone in the space of the missing teeth before successfully being able to proceed. If you find that you do not have enough bone space there are other corrective options to consider such as bridges or dentures. Veneers, Crown & Bridge You can replace a missing tooth / teeth with bridgework. Bridgework involves placing a false tooth between two porcelain crowns, which can be an alternative to implants. Fixed bridges cannot be taken out, so it is very important that you treat your oral hygiene seriously. A few benefits to having bridgework, aside from a beautiful smile, include bite issue correction and even improved speech. Crowns will give you a cosmetically stunning smile. Crowns are ceramic metal or metal and ceramic structures which cement over the top of malformed, fractured or heavily filled teeth to give great strength and appearance for the long term. Porcelain veneers are thin porcelain facings that adhere to the outer facings of your teeth similar to the concept of false fingernails. Veneers are a fantastic option for closing gaps and disguising discoloured teeth which is commonly caused from medications, coffee, tea and / or cigarettes. Reconstructive When teeth are compromised by decay, broken fillings, and general wear & tear a comprehensive treatment plan that will address the health and appearance of your teeth and gums, is necessary. Crowns, bridges, veneers and implants all help to restore your teeth to their best condition resulting in a new beautiful smile. Zoom 2 Whitening Whitening or tooth bleaching is a very common dental procedure that will beautifully enhance your smile by correcting discoloured teeth. Zoom2 is a sophisticated, non-invasive clinical technique that uses intense light to bleach teeth back to their whitest. It’s a safe and long lasting procedure. Whether you have a chipped tooth, missing teeth and / or discolouration problems, there is a cosmetic dentistry procedure available to correct the problem and which will provide you with safe and long term results..
