Narconon Trois-Rivieres Looks into the Painful Drug Addictions Caused by OxyContin Abuse

When OxyContin was first manufactured, no one knew what type of destruction this particular drug would cause those who got caught up in abusing or misusing the drug. Perdue Pharma L.P. first introduced the drug in 1995 to help people battling cancer, and soon after the drug was being recommended for treating moderate to severe pain cases. When this happened, sales eventually sky rocketed, and in 2003 there were 1.6 billion dollars of worldwide sales. Perdue Pharma were being severely criticized by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) for its very aggressive marketing tactics and ability to encourage physicians to prescribe the drug.

In the late 1990’s the Chief Coroner of Ontario at that time was noticing more people were dying from prescription drug overdose. When he asked for forensic scientists to review the drug related death files for the past five years, it was found that there was a major increase in deaths where Oxycodone was found in the blood stream. In 2003, there were 101 deaths in Ontario where the person had Oxycodone in their blood stream. The Chief Coroner at the time reported seeing this increase in deaths around the same time that the drug was being aggressively marketed. Many of the people who died where drug abusers, but many of the people who died from accidental overdose or suicide, were prescribed drugs with Oxycodone in it, and OxyContin being the most popular.

Perdue Pharma defended their drug saying it was no different then any other pain medication being marketed. Unfortunately, there was no other documentation of other pain medications causing the same problems at the time. Atlantic Canada was facing similar problems, and still is to this very day. They have been seeing dangerous social problems that have involved OxyContin abuse. In 2003 pharmacies dispensed over 2.8 million prescriptions for drugs containing Oxycodone in Canada, mainly Ontario, and the most popular was OxyContin.

Substance Abuse Rehabilitation in the Finest Luxury Facility

Sunset Malibu, an exclusive treatment center on the California coast, has long been a transformational force in the field of rehabilitation and recovery. Now, Sunset is announcing its redoubled efforts to provide its clients with a private and dignified healing experience.

Addiction is a crippling disease. To succumb to Substance Abuse is to be stripped of one’s self-esteem, and one’s sense of self-control. The logical corollary, of course, is that addiction treatment must first aim to help patients learn to feel good about themselves again. In the end, there’s no other route to sustained and sustainable recovery.

That concern for emotional well-being lies at the heart of Sunset Malibu’s treatment philosophy.

With its world-class caregivers and elegant accommodations, Sunset Malibu is an unparalleled recovery destination. The center has always catered to upscale residents from every corner of the globe. Now Sunset is renewing its commitment to its core values, with the goal of delivering self-affirming care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client’s feelings always come first.

“Our clients invariably come to us with negative self-concepts,” says Sunset Malibu owner Richard Taite. “Our first job is to help them see themselves in a new light. With our advanced dual-diagnosis techniques and intensive depression treatment programs, we’ve had great success in creating the right kind of change.”

It’s that kind of success that is precisely what separates Sunset from its competitors.

It’s one thing for a treatment facility to pay lip service to the importance of psychological healing. It’s quite another for that facility to actually put principle into practice. Many of the most high-priced treatment clinics in Los Angeles only superficially address the emotional needs of their residents—with disastrous consequences for those residents and their families.

Taite argues that those kinds of shortcomings are absolutely inexcusable.

“Rehab is a life and death issue,” Taite said. “At Sunset Malibu, we understand that. We know what’s at stake in the fight against addiction, and we commit ourselves to honoring the trust our clients put in us. As we see it, no inferior level of service is ever acceptable.”

Addiction is a pernicious and destructive foe. It is not, however, an unconquerable one. Sunset Malibu’s long record of success proves that effective rehabilitation really does change lives. For Sunset’s successful graduates, that lesson has made all the difference in the world.

Addiction Recovery at an Unparalleled Recovery Destination

Sunset Malibu, an exclusive treatment center on the California coast, has long been a transformational force in the field of rehabilitation and recovery. Now, Sunset has redoubled its efforts to help its residents learn to heal themselves.

Addiction treatment isn’t a spectator sport. On the contrary, rehab patients must play active roles in their own recovery. The catch, of course, is that those patients need ample support in the fight against addiction—which explains why the most successful treatment centers are those which first aim to empower their clients. In the end, it is the only proven way to ensure the effectiveness of the healing process.

Those considerations are at the heart of Sunset Malibu’s treatment philosophy.

With its world-class caregivers and elegant accommodations, Sunset Malibu is an unparalleled recovery destination. The center has always catered to upscale residents from every corner of the globe, whether they are seeking treatment for alcoholism or even Addiction Cure.

Now Sunset is renewing its commitment to its core values, with the goal of delivering empowering support to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client always comes first.

“Real recovery has to occur from the inside out,” said Sunset Malibu owner Richard Taite. “No one can help you if you refuse to be helped, and no one can heal if you lack the strength to heal yourself. Our treatment programs at Sunset Malibu are specially designed to give residents the skills and strength they’ll need to get where they’re trying to go.”

That focus on personal strength and self-efficacy is precisely what sets Sunset apart from its competitors.

There are plenty of “luxury” treatment facilities in California. All of them make bold promises to their clients, and many really do have the best interests of their residents at heart. Unfortunately, far too many exclusive clinics lead their patients to believe that rehab can or should be a passive process. More often than not, this sort of misleading rhetoric dooms those patients to long-term failure.

Under the circumstances, says Taite, those kinds of shortcomings are absolutely unforgivable.

“Our clients look to us for life-saving care,” Taite said. “We owe it to them and to their loved ones to live up to our responsibility. That’s why we’re so firmly committed to delivering holistic and empowering care, with everything from specialized depression treatment to advanced emotional counseling programs.”

Addiction ruins lives. Addiction treatment can help to solve the problem, but only if it’s specially designed to help victims win the fight on their own terms. Sunset Malibu has long been recognized for its commitment to its individual clients. As those clients have learned firsthand, there’s no more effective approach to the healing process.

Sunset Malibu is a Pain Killer Addiction cure center located in Malibu, California. For further details about Sunset’s treatment strategies, accommodations, or other general facts about the Residential Inpatient Treatment Center, please call 1-800-332-9202 or visit our Web site at http://www.drugrehabsunsetmalibu.com.

Suicidal Drug Addicted Mother Gets Her Life Back

One September day, a mother rejected by her husband and torn apart from her children, laid waste perhaps on an unknown cold bathroom floor somewhere in Canada. She seriously considers ending it all, putting a permanent stop to the pain.

Not an usual business day for Drug Addiction counsellor Fraser Cooke as he returns a phone call getting on the other end this desperate mother crying for help. A magic phrase perhaps, or more so a regular common sense question asked by one who care:

“Do you want your life back?”

A lengthy conversation ensued between a desperate mother and this new voice that cared enough. “As I myself am a recovered addict it is my strict belief that if I don’t put my life’s experience to work in an effort to benefit those still fighting with addiction then there truly was no purpose in getting clean,” said Fraser.

To assist drug addicts, Addiction Enders issued a general Suicide prevention message on their website:

“Suicide is a situation that hurts every one involved. Suicide is an especially grievous situation when an addict or alcoholic takes his or her own life in spite of the fact there are thousands of programs available to end the root problem, which is addiction. Addiction Enders is aware of the fact that only a small number of the overall population is suicidal but comparatively speaking, that number is dramatically increased when only looking at the Alcoholics and Addicts of the world. If you are feeling suicidal please read on. We care”

Addiction Ender s has done extensive research into all aspects of traditional and modern drug and alcohol addiction treatment . They make it their job to share their knowledge with whomever will listen and benefit from it. Their goal is to help those struggling with addiction to seek out and obtain the treatment they require to live healthy, successful, and productive lives.

On that dark day in September, one call made a difference for children who now have their mother back.

Narconon Gives Back To the Community

Not all drug rehabilitation programs can say that they have the highest success rate of graduates staying off of drugs permanently. And not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers can say that they do more than help people recover, they also give back to the community through education and prevention. You cannot win the battle against substance abuse if you don’t have the tools necessary to fight in the first place.

calnarconon

For drug rehabilitation to be completely effective there has to be more than telling a person that the need to quit abusing drugs and alcohol. There has to be a hands approach that delves into the real issues that cause a person to alter their whole life just to find solace in a bottle of alcohol or baggy of drugs. The hands on approach cannot just come from within the walls of a drug treatment facility; it has to start in the streets, in the schools, and in the homes of every person on the planet. Drug and alcohol abuse doesn’t just affect the environment that an addict lives in, it affects each person that the addict encounters, it affects the work that is to be done, it affects the children that have to live with it, and learn from it. Through education, you can stop drug and alcohol addiction before it starts. Through education you can teach the children of addicts to break the cycle. Through education you can change the world.

Since the inception of the narconon program the goal is been to educate not only current and former addicts about the dangers of substance abuse, but people in the communities that we all live in and in the communities where the drug trade hits the hardest. The Narconon program is not only in the U.S. The Narconon program has been able to educate people in over 40 countries in places like Columbia, Ukraine, Philippines, and even Iran. Each are benefitting from the education they receive and the activities they become part of. Narconon is actively involved with the organizing and hosting of sporting events all over the world. From the Narconon Miracles hockey team, to golf tournaments, marathons, and even celebrity softball games, the message is clear. Involvement with community, schools, and activities keeps kids off of drugs and away from alcohol. Giving people the right tools at the beginning will create success at the end.

Contact Details: narcononvista bay is a drug rehabilitation center that uses the Narconon program to help people who are alcohol and drug addicted to overcome their addictions and live satisfying lives without drugs or alcohol. For more information on the Narconon program or narcononvista bay please contact them at 800-556-8885. They are available for you to contact seven days a week to answer any questions you may have.

Secluded Rehab Center Provides an Ideal Addiction Recovery Environment

Cliffside Malibu, a premier recovery facility on the Malibu coast, has long been a leading light in the California treatment community. Now, the center is pleased to announce its renewed commitment to helping high-profile clients achieve meaningful and lasting addiction recovery.

Rehab is and should be a private process. For celebrity rehab center residents, though, such privacy can be difficult to maintain. Indeed, the public’s fascination with celebrity rehab stories exposes high-profile rehab patients to outrageous levels of scrutiny, which can in turn jeopardize the outcome of the healing process. In the end, the only successful rehab centers are those which successfully preserve the dignity and peace of mind of each and every individual client.

That principle, in turn, is the bedrock of Cliffside Malibu’s recovery philosophy.

With its expert caregivers and posh amenities, Cliffside Malibu is a world-class institution. The center has always catered to an elite clientele. Now Cliffside is expanding its mission, with the goal of delivering private and dignified care to those individuals who need it. At Cliffside Malibu, nothing less than excellence will ever be acceptable.

“We understand the unique needs of our celebrity residents,” said Cliffside Malibu Program Director Dr. Georgina Smith. “Our strict confidentiality policy is designed to protect the personal integrity of every individual who walks through our front gates. When you arrive at Cliffside Malibu, you enter a world in which your privacy matters more than anything else.”

That commitment is precisely what distinguishes Cliffside from its competitors.

Many of the most high-priced inpatient rehabs in Los Angeles fail to adequately protect the privacy of their clients. Even worse, many of those institutions actively violate that privacy, by leaking information about their celebrity residents to the media for purposes of publicity and advertisement. Such practices are, of course, grossly unethical. More importantly, they severely jeopardize the outcome of the recovery process.

Given the stakes in the fight against addiction, that sort of risk is simply unacceptable.

“Rehab is quite literally a matter of life and death,” said Patricia Freeberry, Cliffside’s Clinical Director. “Our celebrity clients entrust us with an awesome responsibility. We’re humbled by the opportunity to serve them, and we do everything in our power to justify their faith in us. We owe that much to our residents, and to the people who love them.”

Addiction recovery is always a human story. In an industry where profits so often matter more than people, Cliffside Malibu is committed to making each and every client the center of the universe. That philosophy helps to explain the stunning success rate enjoyed by Cliffside’s high-profile residents. It also, more importantly, has changed countless lives for the better.

Cliffside Malibu is a luxury drug and alcohol rehabilitation center located in Malibu, California. For further details about Cliffside’s treatment methods, amenities, or other general information about the residential rehab, please call 1-800-501-1988 or visit our Web site at www.cliffsidemalibu.com.

The Harley Medical Group Has Revealed That The Number Of Nipple Correction Surgical Procedures Carried Out Has Risen 30% Year-On-Year

The Harley Medical Group has revealed that the number of nipple correction surgical procedures carried out has risen 30% year-on-year.

Mr Riccardo Frati, surgeon at The Harley Medical Group, appeared on GMTV to discuss nipple correction surgery with Lorraine Kelly. He said: “There are nipple surgery options out there and a minority of women seek to change the size or shape of their nipples through reconstructive surgery purely for cosmetic reasons. Another option, nipple elevation, involves the nipple being raised above its existing level to enhance its appearance and make the breast look more pert.

“At The Harley Medical Group we can also resolve the retraction of nipples, which can be a problem for women who want to breast feed.

“Patients having Breast Augmentations will often find their nipples will remain erect for a while after surgery though after a time the nipples will return to their normal state.”

As rumours abound that Victoria Beckham has had a breast reduction, The Harley Medical Group has reported that the celebrity trend for smaller, more natural looking breasts, is increasingly popular amongst women coming into the Group’s 26 clinics. 75% of women who have had a Breast Augmentation at The Harley Medical Group in the last six months opted to go up just one or two cup sizes. Reflecting the less-is-more attitude now taken by many celebrities including Jordan and Ulrika Jonsson, women are opting for a more ‘real’ look.

Liz Dale, Director at The Harley Medical Group, said: “Over the last year we have seen a definite move towards smaller, more natural looking breast shapes across both our reduction and augmentation business. Look-at-me, statement décolletage is definitely becoming less popular. This could in part be due to the global trend we have seen in a lot of consumer areas for taking a more subtle approach to personal presentation.”

All patients considering cosmetic surgery should ensure that their surgeon is trained and registered in the GMC Specialist Register as a Plastic Surgeon and ensure that their first consultation is carried out by a medical professional.

About the Harley Medical Group:
The Harley Medical Group is the UK’s largest cosmetic and plastic surgery provider, performing more procedures and with more clinics than any other cosmetic surgery provider. It has been established for over 25 years and is one of the most highly-regarded Cosmetic Surgery Groups operating in the UK, with over 435,000 patients treated to date.

The Harley Medical Group is renowned for introducing and pioneering most new surgical and non surgical techniques to the UK and Irish markets, such as Aesthera PPx, Laser Hair Removal, Cool Touch Laser, Silk Touch Laser, Collagen for lines and wrinkles, Laser for snoring, Tumescent Liposuction, LPG cellulite treatment etc. All new treatments and techniques are first thoroughly researched and tested before they are submitted for approval by the Group’s Medical Advisory Committee, as being suitable for application by the Group’s fully trained and specialized Plastic Surgeons, Doctors and Treatment Nurses.

Travel Nurse Across America Expands Into New Offices

Travel Nurse across America, a national travel healthcare staffing company, recently completed the relocation of its executive and administrative offices to its newly constructed 21,000 square foot office building located in Northshore Business Park in North Little Rock , Arkansas.

nurse.tv

“This new facility was designed from the ground up with our travel nurses, travel therapists and client healthcare facilities in mind”, says Gene Scott, the company’s president. “The office layout will be much more functional and will facilitate better communication between departments and personnel that work together the most in serving our customers. I’m also happy for our associates as well. The proximity of our new offices to the Arkansas River Trail, a biking and pedestrian trail along the Arkansas River and the notorious Big Dam Bridge, the nation’s longest pedestrian bridge, will offer our associates opportunities to maintain a healthy lifestyle around their work.”

According to Mr. Scott, the travel healthcare industry has experienced a turbulent first half of the year, as most industries have experienced, as a result of the recent economic downturn. “The travel healthcare industry has been directly impacted because of the hardship placed on our client healthcare facilities – decreases in admissions, elective surgeries, access to capital and foundational giving along with increases in the number of uninsured patients and operating costs. As a result, there are less travel nursing and therapy jobs available. We have worked even closer with our client healthcare facilities to fill travel nurse jobs and travel therapy jobs in a fraction of the lead times of the past. Our travel nurses and travel therapists have shown great patience and understanding as we find travel assignments that meet their needs and expectations. They know these conditions will not last for long. The long-term demand for highly qualified travel healthcare professionals is still very strong.”

Even though the tough economic environment has caused consolidation within the travel healthcare industry, Mr. Scott says Travel Nurse Across America is well positioned to weather the economic storm, and even thrive in the current environment. Mr. Scott points to some recently released economic indexes that indicate the nation’s economy may be on the mends. “The Economic Cycle Research Institute’s weekly leading index measuring the U.S. Economy, which we follow very closely, returned to positive territory for the first time in over 22 months. Since the staffing industry in general is so closely tied to GDP, that was welcomed news for the industry, but we’ll have to see if that trend continues”

Travel Nurse across America is a national travel healthcare staffing agency that places travel nurses and travel therapists on multi-week travel assignments in client healthcare facilities in all 50 states.

Menopause Blamed For Rise In Receding Hair

Hair loss is often the hardest aspect of growing old, but for a number of people the problem is not confined to their later years.

And it’s not just men suffering from the affliction, with studies suggesting an increasingly number of post-menopausal women are finding their hairlines receding.

This new epidemic is a type of alopecia, which damages hair follicles so that hair falls out and cannot grow back.

The condition known as Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia (FFA) can cause women to lose up to five inches from their hairline as well as their eyebrows. If FFA goes undiagnosed, women can even lose hair at the sides and back of their head.

Scientists believe that FFA is a result of the immune system attacking hair follicles, which causes inflammation at the root. This can damage stem cells in the follicles and prevents hair from growing back entirely.

The only treatment available involves controlling this inflammation, so only offers a reduction in overall hair loss rather than a cure.

However, the damage for most has already been done and the only alternative is to undergo a hair transplant.

The Hospital Group, one of the country’s leading cosmetic surgery providers, is at the forefront of hair restoration surgery, treatments and techniques. Those seeking a solution to their hair loss can undergo a hair transplant, which involves splitting the follicles of existing hairs and relocating them in the sparse area.

Providing expert advice and assistance, The Group carries out more hair transplantations than any other clinic in the UK and recognises that hair restoration is an art just as much as a surgical procedure.

Since The Hospital Group was established in 1992, it has grown from a small pharmaceutical company to one of the UK’s foremost weight loss surgery providers.

Gordon Ramsay Is Famous For A Number Of Reasons; His Cooking, Short Temper, Foul Mouth And, Notably, His Furrowed Brow And Chin

But not for much longer. Ramsay has admitted to having BOTOX® injections only a month after telling Australian TV presenter, Tracy Grimshaw, that she needed the treatment herself.

Gordon Ramsay

The controversial chef and host of “The F word” had his haggard chin smoothed after close friend, Simon Cowell, teased him about his looks.

When comparing pictures it is clear that his furrowed brow and lines on his chin looks far less pronounced.

There is also speculation that Ramsay may have had a number of facial fillers and a slight face lift under local aesthetic.

The chef is just one of many Brits who have decided to undergo non-surgical procedures to lift their spirits during the credit crunch.

The Hospital Group, one of the country’s largest provider of both surgical and non-surgical treatments reported a 226 per cent increase in the number of non-surgical procedures performed in 2008. A total of 5,200 treatments were carried out across the group last year with treatments such as BOTOX®, hyperhidrosis and face peels rising in popularity.

Since The Hospital Group was established in 1992, it has grown from a small pharmaceutical company to one of the UK’s foremost cosmetic surgery providers. The Group is committed to providing the very highest standards and all procedures are performed by an expert medical team in state-of-the-art facilities that are second to none.

Long Waiting Lists for Toronto Detox Programs – Drug Rehab Services Answers The Call

Many families living in Toronto, Canada, who are trying to help a loved one struggling with addiction can find it frustrating when they are not able to get through to an addiction help line. “When families call us, normally they have tried many other local numbers, and were unable to get through,” comments Marcel Gemme, the owner of Drug Rehab Services. “Many local services, especially in Toronto are so backlogged with patients, calls, and are normally understaffed, it’s not uncommon for these calls to go unanswered. Many families are quite relieved when they call our help line and they are greeted by a real person.” Limited resources are available for people looking for immediate assistance, especially those requiring medical detox. Medical detox can be a crucial part for someone’s recovery, more importantly for those withdrawing from alcohol and prescription medications.

drugrehab.ca

Drug Rehab Services has built a directory of over 4000 different treatment resources across North America. This includes, residential treatment that is long term and short term, outpatient treatment, detox, and medical detox programs. Their counsellors are available to handle any questions families may have about drug and alcohol addiction. With such a large population in the greater Toronto area, there are many long waiting lists for local services, and so many different people are looking for help. Because of these long waiting lists and understaffing, many of these services operate an answering service when you call, meaning most of the time you will not get through to an actual person to talk to. When a family does leave a message, it might be a couple days before the call is returned; once again this is primarily due to, lack of staff, lack of funding, and an overwhelming amount of phone calls.

The help line at Drug Rehab Services operates seven days a week, where trained and caring counsellors are available for families to talk to. If you or someone you know is looking for immediate help, call their toll free line at, 1-877-933-0344, or visit their website at, http://drugrehab.ca/.

Dental Facelift Offered At Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry

At Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry, our top cosmetic dentists look at the whole picture when it comes to cosmetic and restorative dental work.

As we age, our teeth wear down and our faces appear more short. The cheeks also become sunken in and there is a collapse of the dental arches. This creates the appearance of more defined lines around the mouth and lower face, as well as an aging effect due to discoloration and reduced quality of the dental aesthetics. This is why Smile South Florida performs a dental restorative facelift.

A dental facelift is the use of cosmetic dentistry to create the effect of a traditional facelift, without intrusive plastic surgery.

A dental facelift can take years off of the face by restoring the fullness of the face lost over time. It can have a significant impact on not just the look of the patients face, but also on the function by having proper tooth, bite, and jaw alignment.

As we reach middle age, the dental arches, especially on the lower teeth, have a tendency to collapse inward given a sunken in look to the jaw. Widening the smile is one important method to help in giving back the fullness of the cheeks. We take into consideration replacing lost tooth structure and improving the height of the teeth. The teeth also start to become chipped, worn, crooked, discolored, and can even fall out/be missing. This also presents severe aging effect to the mouth, and especially the entire face.

Here are some of the dramatic results that can be achieved through cosmetic and restorative dentistry at Smile South Florida:

Could The Right Luxury Drug Rehab Have Saved Michael Jackson From His Rumored Addiction?

While the recent passing of Michael Jackson was certainly a shock, was anybody really surprised? Less than a generation ago, he was at the top to the charts, the top of his popularity and the top of his game. As his quirkiness began to overwhelm his talent, the stories and rumors began: Michael took painkillers. Michael lived on vitamins. Michael was addicted to diet pills. It went on and on. He even made a music video about all of the stories in the tabloids.

The sad part is, it turns out there may have been at least a kernel of truth to the rumors. Ultimately, it appears somebody injected him with something he’d been told to stop taking. He collapsed; he died. And sadly, we are not surprised.

Drug related deaths among the rich and famous are hardly unique. The early days of rock are riddled with drug overdoses and alcoholism: Hendrix, Joplin, Morrison, and Moon. As our heroes aged, not much changed. In 2002, the Who’s John Entwistle died from a drug-induced heart attack at 57. Bobby Hatfield, the soaring tenor voice of the Righteous Brothers, OD’d on cocaine in 2003 at age 63! Michael Jackson himself was 50 – not a kid to be sure, but far too young to die.

Obviously, drug addiction and abuse does not go away if you live long enough. It knows no age limit. It can chase you your entire life.

Fortunately, for all of the affluent people who’ve dropped off this planet from drug abuse, it’s safe to assume that many more have received help in luxury drug rehab facilities.

However, many of these places have no more faith in their patients than the patients themselves. Such “patch-up” therapy is all too common and all too unsuccessful in the end.

Other facilities, however, truly cater to the luxury lifestyle of its clients, while delivering what they promise: complete withdrawal from drugs and alcohol for life. There is a lot of truth to the idea that if you surround the addict in a worry-free atmosphere, they are able to concentrate on beating their addictions. Rehab centers such as these do exist, and are successful beyond anyone’s wildest dreams. This is in part because their exclusivity helps them to work so well.

If you drive along California Highway 1 and glance at the homes on the Malibu coastline, you might never imagine that the stars and other affluent people in those homes were doing anything other than living their lives. Yet some of the country’s most advanced luxury rehab centers can be found there. Its guests are often names you hear in entertainment, but also executive business people who’ve made their fortune and don’t want to lose it all to their habits.

If only more people – known and unknown, celebrated and anonymous – who can afford the finest rehab treatment were to seek it out amidst their California neighbors and co-workers, they would assure themselves that they wouldn’t be the next big headline, the next promising life cut short.

Orange Juice And Teeth – A Rotten Cocktail

A refreshing glass of orange juice with your breakfast might not be quite as beneficial as you once thought.

Recent studies have revealed that some juices are so acidic they erode teeth enamel with every sip. Dr Yan-Fang Ren, of the Eastman Institute for Oral Health, reported that the acid in orange juice ‘is so strong that the tooth is literally washed away’.

Using a revolutionary vertical scanning microscope for the first time, the researchers were able to see the extensive surface detail on teeth.

Such juice-drinking has further, negative implications; the unnatural acceleration of erosion of the teeth that it causes substantially increases the risk of development and spread of tooth decay.

However, for those among you on a quest for healthy, pearly whites, fear not! The Hospital Group, one of the country’s leading plastic surgery providers, offer a range of dental treatments in its specialist cosmetic dentistry clinics located around the UK.

Teeth whitening, pain-free veneers, white fillings and porcelain crowns are just a few of the popular treatments available at the NuSmile dentistry treatment centres across the country.
