When was the last time you visited the dentist? If it has been a long time, we suggest scheduling a visit today! Adopting a preventive attitude toward your oral care can save you from stress and worry down the line. That’s because regular professional cleanings combine with your at-home efforts to prevent common oral threats like tooth decay and gum disease. By waiting until you see a painful symptom to call the dentist, it may be too late to provide a more conservative treatment for your dental problem. This can mean significant savings when you prevent the need for fillings, crowns, or other restorative treatments.
At Sunny Smiles Family Dentistry, we look forward to being your partner in oral health. We provide thorough cleanings and examinations to help you maintain the beauty and function of your smile for a lifetime. By visiting regularly, we create a dental record that immediately alerts us when changes develop in your teeth. This helps us treat issues early in their development instead of allowing them to progress.
Staying On Top Of Your Oral Health
When we can focus on preventive dental care, we can reduce the need for future restorative procedures that react to oral harm. This approach requires you to prioritize your daily oral hygiene by brushing and flossing each day. When you remove plaque that forms on the surface of your teeth, you reduce the likelihood of cavities and gum infections caused by an accumulation of oral bacteria. To complement this effort, dental cleanings remove bacterial deposits that you cannot remove on your own at home. By inspecting your smile, we can advise on areas that may need a little more daily attention. These exams alert us to problems in your smile that allow us to treat them without waiting for more damage to occur.
We Also Provide Emergency Care
If you have a dental emergency outside of your standard checkup schedule, we can provide treatment right away. Any injury that chips, cracks, or breaks your tooth should be seen immediately for repair. We also treat toothaches that last for more than a day. They could signal an infection that could harm other parts of your body. If you believe your injury to be life-threatening, we ask that you call 911 or head to the emergency room of your nearest hospital before seeking dental care.
