Our Dental Services
At Emerald Isle Smiles, Dr. Myers takes a comprehensive approach to dental care. As a Dawson-trained dentist, she understands the connection between your bite and your oral health. Dr. Myers doesn’t just look at one portion of your smile, but the interlocking parts that keep your teeth and gums healthy.
General Dentistry
Preventive dentistry is a big part of general dentistry. Dental cleanings and exams, X-rays, and routine visits all help prevent future dental problems. We also provide additional general dental care treatments for patients:
- Custom Mouthguard: One important service we provide is custom mouthguards. Our athletic mouthguards are specially made to fit your mouth and protect your teeth during sports. Unlike store-bought options, a custom mouthguard is more comfortable and offers better protection.
- Emergency Dentistry: Dental emergencies can happen at any time, whether you have a toothache, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth. If you or a loved one needs urgent dental care, we’re here to help. Our office can relieve pain and restore your teeth as quickly as possible.
- Family Dentistry: Dr. Myers treats patients of all ages, from young children to seniors. Your whole family can visit the same dental office: Emerald Isle Smiles. We create a friendly and welcoming environment where kids feel safe and adults feel comfortable asking questions about their dental health.
- Tooth Extraction: Sometimes, a tooth is too damaged or infected to be saved. In these cases, we may recommend a comfortable dental extraction. After we remove the tooth, we’ll talk with you about your tooth replacement options to help you maintain a full and healthy bite.
Cosmetic Dentistry
If you’re unhappy with how your smile looks, we’ll recommend our cosmetic dentistry services in Swansboro, NC. We can straighten and brighten teeth in our office. We can also fix tooth gaps or damaged teeth with:
- Dental Bonding: This quick and simple treatment uses tooth-colored material to fix small problems like chips, cracks, or gaps between teeth. Dr. Myers carefully shapes the material so it blends in with your natural teeth. Bonding is a great choice for minor changes and can usually be completed in just one visit.
- Invisalign: Dr. Myers is an Invisalign provider. Invisalign may be a great solution if your teeth are crooked or you have tooth gaps. Instead of metal braces, Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to gently move your teeth into the right position. Most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them.
- Porcelain Veneers: You can get a complete smile makeover with veneers. We can cover the front of your teeth with these thin, custom-made shells. Veneers can fix many cosmetic problems like tooth discoloration, worn-down teeth, and unevenly shaped teeth. Veneers look natural and last for many years.
- Zoom Teeth Whitening: If your main concern is stained or yellow teeth, Zoom teeth whitening can brighten your smile quickly and safely. We provide professional whitening treatment right in our office. Zoom whitening can remove years of stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, or smoking and leave your smile several shades whiter.
Restorative Dentistry
Dr. Myers can provide full mouth restoration or rehabilitation with restorative dentistry services. If you have bite problems, missing teeth, gum disease, or tooth damage, Dr. Myers can help. Her restorative dentistry treatments include:
- Dental Bridge: A bridge can replace one or more missing teeth in a row. Dental bridges use your natural teeth or dental implants to support a false tooth in the gap. This restoration helps you chew normally and keeps your smile looking full.
- Dental Crown: We’ll recommend a crown if you have a tooth that is cracked, weak, or worn teeth. A crown covers the entire tooth like a cap to protect it and make it stronger. Tooth crowns also look and feel natural.
- Dental Implants: Implants are a top choice if you have one or more missing teeth. Dental implants are small titanium posts that we place in your jawbone and act like artificial tooth roots. Once the implant heals, we attach a crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants are strong and keep your jawbone healthy, preventing bone loss.
- Dentures & Partials: If you’re missing several or all of your teeth, dentures or partials can help restore your smile and improve how you speak and eat. Dr. Myers offers custom-made dentures that fit securely and comfortably. She also provides implant-supported dentures for extra stability.
- Periodontal Disease Treatment: Gum disease can lead to bleeding gums, bad breath, loose teeth, and even tooth loss. Dr. Myers can treat gum disease with deep cleanings. Her advanced gum treatments can stop the infection and protect your oral health.
- TMJ Treatment: If you have jaw pain, frequent headaches, or trouble chewing, you may have a problem with your bite or jaw joint, known as TMJ disorder. Dr. Myers offers TMJ treatment to help reduce pain and restore proper jaw function. Treatment may include a custom mouthguard, bite adjustment, or lifestyle recommendations.
