As this issue drops through your door, we are nearing the end of november already. most of the visitors have now travelled back up the m5, with hopefully some fantastic memories of our beautiful part of the world.

As winter fast approaches us we have already seen some pretty gruesome weather, not to mention the flooding of parts of east & west Looe in October.Lets just hope that we can avoid the snow & Ice that has hit us in recent years.

Christmas is fast approaching and there are a mass of things to do in and around the area over the festive season. we hope you will find our 16 page supplement hidden inside this issue. Its packed with everything for a Local Christmas in Cornwall from local shops and salons to live entertainment and where to eat out over the festive season.

Inside this issue of “Your Looe & Polperro” we are again literally stuffed with everything Local to the Looe area. For a list of some great things to do this winter see page 11 for a guide to whats’ on and when. win £50 in our fantastic treasure hunt involving local shops in east Looe, for more details go to page 16 & 17. theres of course our usual selection of local tradesmen, our motor section is better than ever, and of course our Ladies section has some fantastic shops on display, all ready for the Christmas rush.

this will be our last issue of 2012, and we will of course return in February with some fantastic spring offers, services and local information.

On behalf of myself and everyone involved in the production of Your Looe & Polperro, Your Liskeard & Your rame, we hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and new Year. A HuGe thank you to all who have supported us throughout 2012, and we look forward to serving our Community again soon.Last but not least, please be safe this winter, in the car and on foot.

Cheers, martyn Cooke

Reflect your brilliance at Andrew Keirl OpticiansIndependent optician Andrew Keirl is the local Maui Jim specialist optician. Maui Jim sunglasses were born on the Hawaiian island of Maui nearly 30 years ago. These remarkable lenses not only have the finest polarising filters but also have exclusive technology that replaces and renews the natural colours that are dulled by traditional sunglasses. Andrew believes that sunglasses should beabout protection, comfort and an enhanced visual experience. Maui Jim delivers just that.The difference is impossible to miss. Put on a pair of Maui Jims and instantly glare is gone and the harmful UV radiation that can damage eyes is absorbed. The world’s true colours come shining through like never before - bolder, richer, crisper and with more contrast and clarity. These benefits are a result of Maui Jim’s patented, colour infused Polarized Plus®2 lens technology at work in an optically correct, distortion-free lens that’s also available in prescription.Andrew is the proprietor of Andrew Keirl Opticians in Liskeard and is passionate about eyecare and along with his team, is proud to be an independent Optician.Andrew is pictured with his practice team, Tracy, Julie and Laura.

Come along and try a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses today!

The Smile Centre in Liskeardis a well-established dental

practice that enjoys afantastic reputation.

Our beautiful practice withample parking is nothing

like a traditional dentalsurgery – pop in and

see for yourself!

Putting patients at easeThe Smile Centre team recognises that fearputs many people off visiting the dentist butthere is help at hand.

We have had enormous success helpingeven the most anxious of patients overcometheir negative feelings.

Family dental careWe welcome families with open arms andoffer a dedicated Smiles Activity Club.

The club provides a fun forum to helpyounger patients adopt good oral hygienehabits and includes examinations withthe dentist.

Transforming smilesThe Smile Centre specialises in transformingsmiles and lifestyles through the provisionof modern dental and cosmetic treatments,including dental implants and adult braces.

“The Smile Centre is great for families because they offer

a good package for the whole family”

“Dental implants are the best thing I’ve ever done –

I’m over the moon with them”

Dental implants provide a permanent solution to

missing teeth and look, feel and work like the real

thing. They can also securely anchor dentures into

place. Principal dentist Chris Smirthwaite has been

successfully placing implants for many years.

He says that ill-fitting dentures and loose or

missing teeth can make social lives a misery, sap

self-confidence and stop people from enjoying

their food.

Michael, from Liskeard, had worn a partial denture

since his teens after he lost four front teeth. He

now has two implants that support a bridge – and

is delighted with the result.

“Dental implants are the best thing I’ve ever done

– I’m over the moon with them. I can’t speak

highly enough of the practice and I was impressed

that they didn’t pressurise me. They talked through

the procedure and then left me to think it over.

“I have been really well looked after – it’s true that

you get what you pay for. I was made comfortable

during treatment and was phoned afterwards to

make sure I was all right. I really can’t praise them

enough!

Payments options are available.

“They are understanding, gentle and so kind that I feel

totally at ease. I can’t praise them enough.”

The thought of treatment other than a routine

examination is enough to cause Lynn Ackland from

Plympton to lose sleep for a week, cry, lose her

appetite and shake. Lynn was recommended to The

Smile Centre in January 2011 and now says that

she will never let another practice touch her teeth!

“They have all been wonderful and I can’t fault

them in any way. Their genuine manner calmed me

enough not to need sedation. They explain

everything in great detail and if I feel unhappy

during treatment I just have to raise my hand and

they stop to give me the time to compose myself.

They are understanding, gentle and so kind that I

feel totally at ease. I know they will look after me.”

Lynn says her teeth are her pride and joy and

admits she was at her wits’ end before finding

The Smile Centre.

“You can’t put a price on your health - and I can’t

praise them enough. If anyone wanted to give me

a ring about The Smile Centre, I’d happily talk to

them and share my experiences!”

...creating natural confidence

enjoy healthy teeth and gums for life

Dentists recommend that babies come along to

their parents’ dental appointments so that they

grow up comfortable with being in a dental

surgery. As soon as their teeth start coming

through, their mouths should be checked – and

this is something Stephanie from Saltash was keen

to encourage with her four boys.

We offer various dental care plans to help individuals

and families pay for preventive dental care with

affordable monthly payments. Our dentists and

hygienists provide brushing techniques to help

youngsters perfect their dental routines at home.

Stephanie said: “The Smile Centre is great for

families because they offer a good package for the

whole family, with competitive rates for children

and young adults. The staff are very friendly and

helpful and I would certainly recommend them to

other families.

“One of my sons had a bicycle accident and broke

three of his front teeth. The dentist did an excellent

repair job and my son now says he has better teeth

than he had before!”

We also invest in the latest technology, including

digital x-rays that use up to 90 per cent less

radiation than film, and oral scanners to replace

rubber impressions.
