Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you, but it’s also a key part of how you feel each day.

Whether you’re considering dental implants or custom dentures, we’ll help you find the right solution to fit your needs.
Winter is here, and while you’re bundling up against the cold, don’t forget that your teeth need extra care, too. The drop in temperature can bring challenges like dry mouth and sensitive teeth, making it even more important to adjust your routine for the season. If you’ve noticed a bit more discomfort than usual or some extra dryness, you’re not alone. These are common issues during the colder months.
Do you or your family members struggle with cavities, especially in those hard-to-reach back teeth? Even with regular brushing and flossing, the deep grooves in our molars can be a haven for food particles and bacteria. At Emerald Dental in Wilmington, DE, we understand that keeping every part of your smile clean can be a challenge. That’s why we offer dental sealants—a simple, preventive solution that helps keep teeth cavity free for the long haul.
The new year is a perfect time to refresh your look, and what better way than with a brighter, whiter smile? Life’s little indulgences—like coffee, tea, and red wine—can gradually dull the natural brightness of your teeth. While brushing and flossing are essential, they can’t always lift deep-set stains. With professional teeth whitening, you can achieve a dazzling smile that will carry you confidently into 2025. Keep reading to learn more about our in-office and at-home teeth whitening options.

We offer a cosmetic dentistry treatment that delivers beautiful results and can be completed in one office visit – dental bonding. You’ll be amazed at how a small change can enhance not only the appearance of your teeth but also your self-confidence.
With the holidays right around the corner, many people are experiencing moments of stress. Although this time of year can be joyful, it can also bring worries that cause feelings of unease. While stress can negatively impact your overall health, it can also affect your oral health. One of the most common dental problems patients experience during times of stress is bruxism. Read on to learn about this condition and how it can lead to issues with your oral health.
One of the services we offer is Children’s Dentistry. We firmly believe that from their very first tooth, children deserve the best dental care. We also believe that starting dental care early increases the likelihood of maintaining white, healthy teeth for life.
We can’t believe how quickly this year is flying by! It is already October, and Halloween will be here before we know it! We know that many of our patients love Halloween, and we love hearing about all of the fun parties and costume ideas. One of the most popular aspects of this favorite holiday is the overabundance of candy and sweet treats. While it is normal to eat some candy and treats, we would hate for you to experience a problem with your oral health due to indulging in too much candy this month. Here are some helpful tips to ensure you don’t experience any complications with your oral health. Keep reading to learn more.
If you or a loved one is in need of a tooth replacement, it can be overwhelming to choose an option that will fit your budget and your lifestyle as well. At Emerald Dental, we want to help our patients choose the option that is best for their needs. While we offer a number of tooth replacement options, one in particular is popular among many patients. Dental implants not only mimic the appearance of your natural teeth, but they are also durable and offer a number of other benefits to patients.
At Emerald Dental, we are passionate about helping our patients have optimal and lasting oral health. This is one of the reasons we recommend our patients visit our office every four to six months for a routine oral hygiene examination and cleaning. During these appointments, we not only clean their teeth but also look for problems such as decay, gum disease, and oral cancer. We often speak about the warning signs to look for if you are experiencing problems with decay or gum disease, but do you know all the warning signs of oral cancer?
