Cosmetic Dentistry

Costs vary by procedure. Tooth-colored fillings are often covered by insurance. Invisalign and porcelain veneers are a larger investment that varies by case complexity. Mikula Dental provides a full cost estimate before any treatment begins and works with most major insurance plans.

Some cosmetic procedures have functional benefits and may be partially covered — tooth-colored fillings, for example, are often covered the same as traditional fillings. Purely aesthetic procedures like veneers and whitening are typically not covered. Dr. Mikula’s team will verify your benefits and explain all costs upfront.

It depends on your goals. Teeth whitening is the fastest and most affordable improvement. Veneers address shape, color, and size all at once. Invisalign corrects alignment. The best approach is a consultation with Dr. Mikula, who will evaluate your smile and recommend the most effective path for your specific concerns.

Yes. Mikula Dental provides Invisalign clear aligner treatment for teens and adults in Bay Village, OH. Invisalign uses a series of custom, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth — with no metal wires or brackets. Call (440) 871-7170 to schedule a consultation.

With proper care, porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 20 years. They are highly resistant to staining and mimic the natural translucency of tooth enamel. Avoiding habits like nail-biting, chewing ice, and grinding teeth significantly extends their lifespan.

Professional teeth whitening results typically last 1 to 3 years depending on diet, oral hygiene, and habits like coffee, tea, or tobacco use. Touch-up treatments can extend and maintain your results. Professional whitening achieves significantly more dramatic results than over-the-counter strips or trays.
