Health & Fitness in North Miami Beach

Dr. Jean-Jacques Edderai and staff service teeth with an array of cosmetic dental services. The 30-minute in-office Lumibrite whitening treatment illuminates teeth without the use of harmful UV rays or calorie-filled toothpaste sandwiches. With protection painted onto lips and gums, Dr. Edderai isolates pearly whites and distributes a thin layer of desensitizing gel and whitening gel across the surface of the enamel. Next, the Sapphire Supreme PAC Light shines on the mixture of gels, activating their special ingredients and bleaching the teeth to spotlight incisor monologues. To help maintain white smiles, patients can take home an aftercare kit with three Lumibrite home-whitening-gel syringes, custom mouth-guard sheets, and a case.

The staff at North Miami Beach Dental dotes on teeth with both health-centric and cosmetic measures. Zoom! teeth whitening’s simple regimen can brighten teeth up to 10 shades, roughly the hue of a snowflake dipped in milk. First, an on-staff whitening wizard shields sensitive lips and gums with a cover before applying the Zoom! gel. Designed to work in tandem with the Zoom! overhead lamp, the serum and light tag-team to penetrate teeth façades and gently expunge any stains, discoloration, or biology notes left in wet cement. In less than one hour, mouths obtain a sparkle that lasts indefinitely with proper hygiene and occasional touch-ups.

Victoria Ruben believes beauty shouldn’t be temporary. After founding her permanent-makeup business 20 years ago in Paris, she decided to further her aesthetic mission by opening a cosmetology and beauty school to share her refined technique with others. Today, Victoria combines her expertise with the latest tattooing equipment to fine-tune faces in her Florida studio. Her precise yet painterly touches of color can simulate all the hallmarks of a professional makeup application, from defining brows to subtly shading lips to drawing distinguished monocles.

Cycling up hills, dancing to Latin beats, lifting ones own body weight—when done with enough intensity, each of these can flood the brain with endorphins. The instructors at My Addiction Cycling and Yoga want to hook their guests on that feeling, to make fitness the most pervasive addiction in America. Indoor cycling sessions are the facility’s calling card. During each, instructors lead spinners through climbs, jumps, and varying intensity levels, all while adjusting speed and resistance to achieve a total-body workout. The high-energy cycling classes work the entire body and distract their wards from the current most common addiction in America: licking subway turnstiles.
