Like everything in life, things are susceptible to wear and tear.

Believe it or not, your smile is no different. A few chips here and a stain there can really start to take its toll on your smile, and you may think there is nothing you can do about it. Luckily, Dr. Michael Michel is able to give her patients a new smile with the help of cosmetic bonding.

Cosmetic bonding is simple yet highly effective, as it gives you the ability to have a seamless smile in nearly no time at all! Cosmetic bonding can help those who have misaligned, misshapen, chipped, cracked, or discolored teeth, making it one of the easiest and most convenient ways to transform your smile.

At the end of the procedure, you are left with nothing but a flawless, beautiful smile!

One of the benefits to cosmetic bonding is the fact it can restore the confidence you may have lost feeling insecure about your smile.

Minor chips, cracks, and misalignments in your smile can be a difficult thing to live with. Your teeth go through life’s hard knocks, and can become discolored and damaged. Many people consider a smile is a first impression, and if you do not feel confident about your smile, it can really have a negative effect on how you see yourself. Luckily, Dr. Michael Michel is able to transform your smile with the help of porcelain veneers.

The process of porcelain veneers begins with a consultation with Dr. Michel. There, he will be able to get a good look at your smile, and ask you about your long-term goals. Also, during the consultation, you will be able to express any questions or concerns you may have regarding the procedure. When it comes time to apply your porcelain veneers, Dr. Michel will prepare your natural tooth by removing a small amount of enamel. Your custom-made veneers will be applied, and made permanent with dental resin cement. At the end, you are left with a beautiful, flawless smile!

One of the benefits of porcelain veneers is that they are stain resistant. You won’t have to worry about having that extra cup of coffee or glass of red wine, as your smile will always be dazzling. Also, with proper care and maintenance, your porcelain veneers can last up to ten years! If you have any questions on how Dr. Michel can help with your journey to porcelain veneers, make an appointment and we’d be glad to help!

Cosmetic Bonding Can Quickly Improve Smiles in Topeka

September 30, 2013

Filed under: Cosmetic Dentistry — Tags: cosmetic bonding, cosmetic dentistry, cosmetic dentistry Topeka, Dr. Michael Michel, Emporia, Lawrence, Manhattan, Michel Dental, Topeka — tntadmin @ 1:53 pm

Do you have one or a few teeth that just don’t look as great as the rest of your smile? Do you want to correct these issues but don’t want to go through the hassle and expense of porcelain veneers? If a few imperfections such as chips or other flaws mar your smile, at Michel Dental we can correct these issues with cosmetic bonding.

Cosmetic bonding is a simple, one-appointment cosmetic dentistry procedure that can quickly correct small imperfections in your smile. Dr. Michel will apply composite resin to your tooth to cover the imperfection. The resin is carefully color matched to blend in with the rest of your smile. Then he’ll use a special light to cure and harden the resin, and polish it to complete your restoration. You’ll leave with a beautiful smile because your flaws will be corrected in only one visit to our office.

Unfortunately, the bonded material will not stain over time in the same way as your natural teeth, so you may need teeth whitening in the future to keep your smile looking great. Still, cosmetic bonding is a great choice if you have some minor smile flaws you’d like to be quickly corrected. Please give us a call to learn more or to schedule your appointment.

Do you find yourself wishing for a straighter smile? Are you also an adult and don’t want the metallic look of braces to interfere with your professional image? If so, you could be a good candidate for Invisalign from Michel Dental.

Invisalign is a clear braces solution that gradually straightens your teeth using a series of clear aligner trays.

Also, Invisalign has no metal parts, so there’s nothing to irritate your mouth.

Your aligners are removable, so you can eat and clean your teeth without any instructions. It also gives you the freedom to take them out for special occasions or photographs. This is a great way to make straightening your smile fit seamlessly into your busy, adult life.

If you’re disappointed with your smile, Invisalign is a great way to straighten your teeth without letting everyone know you’re wearing braces.

Filed under: Cosmetic Dentistry,Restorative Dentistry — Tags: cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Michael Michel, Emporia, fillings, inlays and onlays, Lawrence, Manhattan, Michel Dental, restorative dentistry, Topeka — tntadmin @ 6:41 pm

Did you know that you have another alternative to a crown for repairing large fillings? At Michel Dental, we can also restore your teeth using inlays and onlays. These are more conservative choices to help repair your teeth, as they retain more of your natural tooth structure.

This tooth restoration method is in between a filling and a crown. Inlays and onlays attach to your tooth in much the same way as a filling, but are milled porcelain like a crown. On the top of your teeth are bumps known as cusps. Inlays go in between cusps, while onlays fit over them.

No matter which one is right for your teeth, inlays and onlays are great choices because they allow you to retain more of your natural tooth structure. The more of your tooth you can keep, the healthier your smile is. You’ll have a natural-looking, fully restored tooth that will function like normal once again.

Inlays and onlays can be another great option to repair your smile. If you have a large cavity or old filling that needs repairing, this can be a great alternative to a crown. Since this option isn’t right for everyone, give us a call today to see if this cosmetic restorative dentistry technique can work for your smile.
