Our Cosmetic Dentistry Services

At J. Michael Williams, DDS, we believe that compassionate dental care changes lives. Our team understands the power a smile has on your quality of life, and our goal is to make sure you love yours. To that end, we provide accessible cosmetic dentistry services that address many smile concerns, from discolored and damaged teeth to crooked and missing teeth.

Brighten Your Smile

One of the most cost-effective ways to improve your smile is to brighten your teeth and eliminate stains. Our at-home teeth whitening system allows you to whiten your teeth from the comfort of your home. With our professional-grade whitening agents, you can expect a much quicker and brighter smile than store-bought options. When you choose professional teeth whitening, you’ll receive custom-fitted trays made specifically for your smile. The customized trays ensure the whitening gel is applied evenly to your teeth. Unlike one-site-fits-all whitening strips that you can buy from the drugstore, our custom trays follow the contours of your teeth perfectly. This precise fit reduces gum irritation and ensures a uniform result.

Make Damaged Teeth Whole Again

Damaged teeth don’t just create functional issues—they can also cause embarrassment due to their unsightly appearance. With our natural-looking restorations, you’ll enjoy improved oral function and regain confidence, knowing your smile looks great. For example, a composite dental filling can fill a cavity without drawing unwanted attention to the tooth. In contrast to traditional silver fillings, these white fillings blend naturally into the tooth structure. We can also use dental bonding to correct chipped teeth with this same composite resin material.

Additionally, tooth-colored dental crowns repair more significantly decayed, worn down, or cracked teeth, restoring them to a natural appearance. Designed to mimic tooth enamel, porcelain and ceramic crowns enhance the tooth’s appearance while improving its structural integrity.

Fill in Gaps in Your Smile

Losing even one tooth can be distressing. Tooth loss not only affects your ability to eat and speak naturally but also impacts the appearance of your smile. Fortunately, modern tooth replacement solutions can simultaneously restore oral function and smile aesthetics. At J. Michael Williams, DDS, we offer customized dental bridges, dentures, and dental implants to meet your unique needs.

• Dental bridges: A reliable option for replacing at least one tooth, dental bridges literally bridge the gap created when teeth are lost. A traditional bridge has crowns on each end and a false tooth or teeth between them. The crowns fit over healthy neighboring teeth to firmly anchor the bridge.
• Dentures: Traditional full and partial dentures are removable dental appliances that replace missing teeth throughout a dental arch. While partial dentures replace one or more lost teeth, full dentures replace an entire set.
• Dental implants: The gold standard in tooth replacement today, dental implants are permanent fixtures in the mouth that support restorations like snap-in dentures, bridges, and crowns to replace missing teeth. We place these strong titanium posts in the jawbone to provide a long-lasting and durable solution for individuals struggling with tooth loss.

For each of these solutions, we use high-quality materials to ensure durability and a natural look. We also meticulously customize every restoration so your new teeth look and perform like real ones.

Straighten Your Teeth Discreetly

Invisalign® allows you to straighten your teeth without calling unwanted attention to your smile. This alternative to traditional braces uses clear plastic trays to gradually re-align your teeth, addressing orthodontic problems like crowding, spacing, and bite issues. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, removable, and comfortable. They also make it easier to maintain oral hygiene and allow you to eat all your favorite foods without restrictions. At the end of your treatment, you can unveil a beautifully straight smile.

What Is a Smile Makeover?

Google defines a makeover as “a complete transformation or remodeling of something.” While we commonly think of makeovers in the context of makeup, hair, or home remodeling, a smile makeover focuses on enhancing the appearance of your teeth. This comprehensive treatment combines various restorative and cosmetic procedures to meet your smile goals. The highly personalized nature of a smile makeover requires the skill and vision of a seasoned dentist. An experienced dentist like Dr. Williams knows which procedures to use to achieve your goals, what order to perform them, and how to implement each while maximizing comfort, efficiency, and effectiveness.

The Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

Transforming your smile with cosmetic dentistry can lead to many positive changes in your daily life. Here’s what our patients look forward to when they invest in their smile:

• Correction of cosmetic flaws: Cosmetic dentistry addresses a wide range of aesthetic concerns, allowing you to correct issues that may have been bothering you for years. Our tailored procedures and collaborative approach let you craft your perfect smile with expert support.
• Enhanced confidence: Surveys show that most people regularly lack confidence. Fortunately, improving your smile’s appearance can significantly boost your self-esteem. Many people report feeling happier, more positive, and more confident in social and professional situations after undergoing cosmetic dental procedures.
• Improved oral function: Many cosmetic treatments, such as dental implants or clear aligners, can improve bite function, making it easier to eat, speak, and maintain good oral hygiene.
• Better oral health: Cosmetic procedures often improve overall oral health. For example, straightening misaligned teeth makes them easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease. Procedures like dental implants can also prevent bone loss and further tooth loss. Even teeth whitening can motivate you to maintain a beautiful and healthy smile.
• Long-lasting results: Cosmetic dental procedures often provide durable and long-lasting results. With proper care, many treatments can last several years or even decades.
