A smile is rather powerful. It can cast either a positive or negative light on an individual and affect how one is perceived.
A beautiful smile can enhance one’s facial appearance, certainly. It is often a boost to one’s self-esteem, self-confidence, social involvement, and add to the perception of a higher level of education and career success.
For the individual, a smile triggers the release of endorphins, the feel-good chemicals in the brain. It can also make one look younger by pulling facial muscles upward, providing a mini-face lift of sorts!
Cosmetic Dentistry for Men
The Shelby Township dental office of Ban R. Barbat, DDS excels in cosmetic dentistry. Although we typically see more women than men for smile makeovers, a growing percentage of these patients (for porcelain crowns, veneers and whitening) are men. In our Macomb County dental office, we perform all cosmetic dentistry procedures, including:
Whiteners
Our Zoom 2 whitening system provides a much higher degree of whitening than drug store kits. The whitening is more dramatic and lasts far longer. At an affordable price, Zoom 2 whitening gives a degree of whitening with excellent longevity – and in about an hour’s time.
Porcelain Crowns & Veneers
Porcelain gives the highest degree of luminosity and longevity available in dentistry. Porcelain crowns and veneers can beautifully recreate a smile for the most natural look and feel possible. Plus, porcelain offers excellent durability and long-term color stability among cosmetic materials. It is also exceptional to any other material used in cosmetic dentistry.
Bonding
Chipped, uneven, gapped, discolored or poorly-shaped teeth may benefit from bonding. Bonding is a material that is painted over tooth surfaces and can be built up to correct some smile flaws. While not as durable or stain-resistant as porcelain, it can be shade-matched to blend attractively with other teeth. Plus, bonding gives good longevity at an affordable cost. Typically, the procedure is completed in one visit.
Invisalign
Proper bite alignment helps you avoid problems such as worn or chipped teeth, headaches, sore jaw joints and ear ringing. At our Shelby Township dental office, we are Certified in Invisalign to offer patients a process that uses clear, removable molds to straighten teeth.
Dental Implants
For patients who are missing one or more natural teeth, Dental Implants are held securely in by the jaw, just like natural tooth roots, and they restore the same strong foundation as natural teeth. And, because the teeth attached to the implants are designed for each individual, creating an attractive smile is a normal part of the process.
Cosmetic Dentures
For adults who prefer to replace all upper or lower missing teeth with full dentures, modern dental techniques and materials enable us to create an attractive look that fills out the mouth for a more youthful appearance.
Affordable Smile Makeovers for Men
A terrific smile can make a dramatic difference in one’s appearance, self-esteem and self-confidence. And, patients are delighted that their new smile can be completed while they make affordable monthly payments.

What Our Cosmetic Dentistry Patients Say
For our cosmetic dentistry patients – both men and women – I hear common comments after their smile makeovers are complete…
- “I smile all the time now!”
- “I get comments from strangers on my smile!”
- “This has been the best thing I’ve ever done!”
With the most common being…
“I can’t believe I waited so long to do this!”
Overcoming Common Obstacles to a Better Smile
If you’re considering smile enhancement procedures but have reservations, let’s discuss those during a free consultation. Tap here or call 586-739-2155. We have helped hundreds of patients achieve a beautiful smile by overcoming the obstacles they felt had prevented their smile goals. Below are some perceived obstacles:
Cost
Our easy, monthly payment plans have resulted in many people achieving a smile they are now proud to share. Our financial coordinator has helped many patients find the payment plan that fits their budget. She is available to discuss these arrangements anytime during normal business hours.
Dental Fear
In addition to a gentle touch, we communicate with our patients so they are not left in a worried state and pace procedures in a comfortable sequence. Additionally, some patients prefer sedation during their treatment. We offer oral sedation, which is a pill form that gives a ‘dozing’ state as well as IV sedation for “twilight sleep.” Both erase most (and usually all) memory of the procedure afterward and allow for quick recoveries.
Natural-Looking Results
As a cosmetic dentist, I’ve seen a lot of dental work that looks like dental work. Having cosmetic dentistry “done right the first time” depends greatly on the dentist you choose. By selecting a dentist who uses the most modern techniques and materials in esthetic dentistry, you can enjoy a smile that looks like you were born with it. The materials used are of the finest level of quality and craftsmanship by a nationally-recognized dental lab. This provides the most natural appeal with exceptional longevity.
Time in Treatment
When it comes to total treatment time for dental procedures, many patients are pleased to learn that most cosmetic dentistry, including porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns, whitening, bonding and even gum contouring, can be done in just one or two visits. When a dental lab process is involved, your temporary restorations will be custom-made to provide you with a comfortable and natural-looking smile between visits.
