Cosmetic Dentistry
Livonia, MI Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry primarily focuses on the aesthetics of your smile rather than the health and function of your teeth and gums. Cosmetic dentistry gives patients the smiles they’ve been looking for, from whitening to recontouring to replacing missing teeth. When you are looking to change the look of your smile, rather minor or drastic, then cosmetic treatments from Mikula Dental are the answer!
It might not seem too surprising, but cosmetic dentistry has become increasingly popular in the United States. Everyone wants to both look and feel their best, and a beautiful smile is a major part of this. In fact, a smile is one of the first features most people notice. So why wouldn’t you want it to be perfect?
From more conservative treatments to more aggressive procedures, Dr. James E. Mikula DDS, PC can offer anyone a more attractive smile. Advancements in dental technology have also created more natural, tooth-like options and materials than ever before, so no one will ever be able to tell that you have received restorative dental work.

Bonding
Bonding is less expensive than other cosmetic treatments and usually can be completed in one visit to our office. Bonding is a conservative way to repair slightly chipped, discolored, or crooked teeth. During dental bonding, a white filling is placed onto your tooth to improve its appearance. The filling “bonds” with your teeth, and because it comes in a variety of tooth-colored shades, it closely matches the appearance of your natural teeth.
Veneers
With veneers, you can easily correct your teeth’s imperfections to help you have a more confident, beautiful smile. Veneers are natural in appearance and are a perfect option for patients wanting to make minor adjustments to the look and feel of their smile. Veneers are thin, custom-made shells made from tooth-colored materials such as porcelain. They are designed to cover the front side of your teeth. To prepare for veneers, your dentist will create a unique model of your teeth. This model is sent to a dental technician who creates your veneers. Before placing your new veneer, your dentist in Livonia, MI may need to conservatively prepare your tooth to achieve the desired aesthetic result. While veneers are stain-resistant, your dentist may recommend that you avoid coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco to maintain the beauty of your new smile.

Schedule A Cosmetic Consultation
If you are looking for a smile makeover, the first step will require a consultation and evaluation by our Livonia, MI dentist in which we examine your smile, discuss your treatment goals, and determine which cosmetic treatments will work best to align with what you are looking for. While we are discussing cosmetic needs, it’s fairly common to find other dental issues that need to be treated before we can perform any cosmetic procedures. After all, your smile has to be fully functional and healthy, so it doesn’t negatively affect your cosmetic dental work in the future.
