At Michel Dental, we want all our Topeka-area patients to have beautiful, healthy smiles. But for some patients, achieving that goal is more difficult than it is for others. That’s why Dr. Michael Michel has made it a priority to offer advanced periodontal care. Through effective, non-surgical gum disease treatment, we can help you reclaim your oral health and support overall health.

Advanced, Non-Surgical Care to Meet Your Needs

To meet the needs of our patients, Dr. Michel uses three effective means of treating gum disease:

Scaling
Root planing
Arestin

Each of these lets us target an aspect of gum disease, resulting improved health for you. Arestin in particular is an effective tool in the fight against periodontal disease.

Arestin is a concentrated antibiotic that Dr. Michel places directly where you need it. It uses microscopic, medicine-filled spheres to deliver treatment over a series of days, making it more effective than just a basic in-office treatment with scaling and root planing.

Are you interested in learning more about periodontal therapy from Michel Dental? Dr. Michel would be happy to answer your questions during a consultation visit. Call us today if you’d like to set up an appointment. Our office serves patients from Topeka, Emporia, Lawrence, Manhattan, and surrounding areas.

Create a Sensation Smile in Time for Summer

Summer is a time for family vacations, family reunions, and other major events, like weddings and get-togethers with friends. Because events like these often involve lots of pictures, if you’re embarrassed of your teeth, you might be dreading this summer more than you have to. All of which is why Dr. Michael Michel offers teeth whitening at his Topeka dental office.

Dazzling Results with Two Convenient Options

To help patients from Topeka and beyond achieve the whiter smile they’ve dreamed of, Dr. Michel offers two convenient options for patients to take advantage of—in-office and take-home whitening. Both can yield dramatically brighter results, but if you’re looking for an immediately whiter smile, you may want to consider in-office teeth whitening. After about one hour, in-office teeth whitening can have your teeth looking close to 10 times whiter than they did when you came in. In some cases, patients may experience some sensitivity afterwards, but if you want fast results, in-office teeth whitening may be for you.

For patients who aren’t in a hurry, though, or have experienced sensitivity in the past, why not talk to us about our take-home whitening option. With take-home teeth whitening, you can use custom-made bleaching trays and professional bleaching gel to help you achieve your goal in in a matter of days.

Are You Ready To Turn Your Smile Around?

If you’re ready to transform your smile with professional teeth whitening, call Dr. Michel’s Topeka office today. Dr. Michel serves patients from Emporia, Lawrence, Manhattan, and surrounding areas.
