Northern Virginia cosmetic dentist Dr. Wayne Myles can recreate your smile’s appearance with durable, natural-looking porcelain veneers, custom-made to complement your unique appearance. Porcelain veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment that we offer in our Reston, Virginia, dental office. We use dental veneers to treat tooth chips, gaps, permanent stains, misalignments, and malformations. The durable porcelain that our lab uses to create handmade porcelain veneers reflects light like natural tooth enamel. It also completely resists stains.
Your smile is an expression of your personality and cannot be hidden. Don’t let the condition of your teeth hold you back socially and professionally. You have one chance to make a good impression, so why not recapture the beauty of your smile and regain your confidence? Our dental care team has the experience, artistic talent, and education that are needed to give you a sensational, memorable smile that will help you stand out in a crowd. A smile makeover involves a variety of cosmetic dentistry procedures – everything from gum contouring to dental implants to porcelain veneers – to truly “makeover” your smile. Each patient’s situation is unique, and Dr. Myles treats every patient’s smile makeover as such, combining the necessary treatments or procedures to transform your smile.
For effective and convenient teeth whitening, schedule your Zoom! teeth whitening appointment at Smiles by Myles in Reston, VA. In about an hour, your smile can be up to eight shades brighter. Our chair-side bleaching process involves applying professional-grade teeth whitening gel to the tooth enamel, then repeatedly exposing it to safe light. The light-activated gel will act fast to erase tooth stains caused by foods, beverages, tobacco, medications, and age. You’ll walk in with a drab smile and walk out with a dazzling work of art! Teeth whitening treatment is one of our most popular cosmetic dental services. To supplement Zoom! teeth whitening or use independently, our Reston dental professionals will create a set of custom-molded take-home trays and give you professional teeth whitening gel to use at home. If you exclusively use the take-home whitening system, expect results similar to the in-office system after about two weeks of daily use.
Using thin, custom porcelain shells, Dr. Wayne Myles can enhance the shape, color, and symmetry of your teeth with little to no enamel removal, making no-prep veneers a more conservative alternative to traditional veneers for the right candidate. At your consultation in Reston, Dr. Myles will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and confirm whether you have sufficient enamel to support no-prep veneers. If you move forward, impressions are taken so your veneers can be crafted for a natural-looking result, then carefully bonded in place, with only minimal preparation if needed.
Smiles by Myles offers custom dental crowns for patients who want to restore damaged, decayed, worn, deeply stained, or weakened teeth with a result that looks natural and functions comfortably. A crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that fully covers a prepared tooth to rebuild strength, protect vulnerable structure, and improve the tooth’s shape and appearance. Because a compromised tooth can affect chewing and speaking, crowns are designed to help you feel confident using your teeth again while blending seamlessly with your smile through careful shade matching. Your treatment begins with a consultation to evaluate your needs and confirm the best approach. For comfort, local anesthetic is used, and oral sedation is available for patients who feel anxious in the dental chair. Dr. Wayne Myles then prepares the tooth by removing damaged tissue and shaping it to fit a crown, takes detailed impressions, and places a temporary crown so you can maintain function while your custom restoration is fabricated. After a short turnaround, you return to have the permanent crown bonded in place. Dental crowns can also be used to replace missing teeth when paired with a dental implant. Implant placement is performed by a trusted oral surgeon, and Dr. Myles completes the crown once healing is complete. With good home care and regular checkups, crowns can last many years.
Smiles by Myles offers sleep apnea treatment for patients who want better sleep without the hassle of a CPAP machine. Dr. Wayne Myles provides oral appliance therapy, a quiet and non-invasive option that uses a slim, custom-fitted device worn at night to help keep the airway open. This treatment is travel-friendly, easy to maintain, and designed for comfort based on your bite. Your care starts with a consultation to review symptoms, health history, and goals. If you have not been formally diagnosed, we can help coordinate a sleep study, either at-home or in a lab. If sleep apnea is confirmed, Dr. Myles takes digital impressions to design your personalized appliance, then fits and adjusts it to improve effectiveness. Follow-up visits help monitor progress and ensure your symptoms continue to improve over time. In many cases, oral appliance therapy may be covered by medical insurance with an official diagnosis. If you are ready to sleep better and feel more rested, request a consultation.
Smiles by Myles offers sedation dentistry for patients who feel anxious about dental visits or want a more comfortable experience during treatment. Oral conscious sedation can help you feel calm and relaxed during your treatment, allowing you to get the care you need. This can be especially helpful for patients with dental phobia, a sensitive gag reflex, or difficulty sitting still in the dental chair. For oral sedation, patients take a prescribed medication the night before treatment and another dose about an hour prior to the appointment. Depending on your needs, the sedation may be mild (awake but very relaxed) or moderate (drowsy, with some patients dozing). Because effects can last for several hours, you will need a responsible adult to drive you to and from your visit and stay with you until the sedative wears off.
Clear aligners can deliver a straighter smile without the look or inconvenience of traditional braces. Dr. Wayne Myles provides CandidPro™, a clear aligner system designed to move teeth into healthier, more attractive positions in as little as 6–18 months. The aligners are virtually invisible and removable, making treatment easier to fit into daily life while still creating noticeable results. Your care starts with a consultation to discuss your goals and confirm whether clear aligners are the right option for your smile. Because Smiles by Myles provides a full suite of general, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry, the team can help prepare your teeth and gums for orthodontic treatment when needed and support long-term oral health throughout the process. After aligner treatment is complete, Dr. Myles will fit you for a retainer to help maintain your results.
