Are you unhappy with the appearance of your smile? Do you find yourself wishing it was more attractive, like the smiles you see on television and in the magazines? At Michel Dental, we offer a custom solution to help remove flaws and enhance the beauty of your smiles: porcelain veneers.

Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of high-quality dental porcelain that are attached to the front of your teeth to improve their appearance. It can be used to cover teeth with stains, chips, gaps, cracks, and other concerns.

While it will take three dental visits to complete your porcelain veneer treatment, it is often well worth it because of the results you’ll achieve at the end. Dr. Michel will create your custom veneers to give you the best smile possible. While they’re being crafted in a lab, he’ll remove some enamel from your teeth and apply temporary veneers. Once your porcelain veneers are ready, they’ll be affixed to your teeth, giving you a beautiful smile. With proper care and maintenance, they will last you a long time.

If you want to improve the appearance of your teeth, porcelain veneers could be a good choice for you. Give us a call to come in and see if this is the right solution for your smile. We’re here to help give you the smile of your dreams.

At Michel Dental, we offer quality dental care for a distinctive smile. Our Topeka dental office serves patients from Emporia, Lawrence, Manhattan, and surrounding areas. Call us today to schedule your appointment.

Gum Disease and Periodontics in Topeka

Despite our best efforts, our teeth or gums can still fall victim to decay or disease. Gum disease is a condition that is often symptomless and can lead to serious smile problems if left untreated. Michel Dental offers periodontics to help restore your gums and keep you from losing a tooth or gum tissue.

Gum disease is an infection of the gums caused by built up tartar on the surface of your teeth. If it’s allowed to progress, it could cause you to lose a tooth or worse. Also, the infection can spread throughout your body, increasing your risk of heart disease, pulmonary infections, and other health concerns.

We offer a four-part, non-surgical approach to treat your gum disease which is as follows:

  1. We remove the bacteria that caused the infection by a deep cleaning or antibiotics.
  2. We determine what caused the infection, and come up with ways to keep it from happening again.
  3. If you’ve lost bone, we will try and repair this and ensure your smile keeps functioning properly
  4. We’ll come up with a plan to reduce your risk of further infections.

With periodontics from Dr. Michel, we can treat your gum disease and restore the health of your smile. If you think you might have gum disease or haven’t seen us in a while, give us a call today to schedule an appointment. This is an important part of our preventative smile care.
