Sometimes, problems happen within our mouths; when they do, it’s important to talk to your dentist about your next steps. A broken tooth or lost filling is one of those times, as this situation can put you at real risk of developing a bacterial infection within the tooth, where it’s difficult to fight back on your own. A nasty toothache can ensue, so meet with a trusted local dental provider to make a plan.
When you visit Sunny Smiles, you’ve got someone looking out for you. Our office is built to help people maintain and improve their oral health through effective preventive care, quality cosmetic processes, and restoration that works for your specific smile needs. Meeting with your dental team quickly can make a difference, as bacterial infection can cause a seriously painful toothache that requires root canal treatment to correct. So, if you’ve cracked, chipped, or broken one or more of your natural teeth, or if you’ve lost a filling, reach out to your dentist to talk about restoration.

Even with a dedication to your brushing and flossing, you still need to care for your smile. One of the reasons for that is because bacteria leave behind harmful biofilm called plaque, which irritates the gums and leads to tooth decay. If left, it calcifies into a harder form called calculus, and at that point, you need the help of a trusted dental hygienist to remove it for you. So, when you start to see redness or swelling along your gumline, talk to your dentist to see if bacterial buildup is to blame.
With our trusted, local team at Sunny Smiles, you can take steps to fight back against periodontal disease. This is the leading cause of adult tooth loss in this country, so it’s important to find a pathway forward. Keeping a cleaner set of teeth can help patients to improve their gum health, and it’s important to do it with a dentist who knows their stuff. Schedule your next biannual checkup, and while you’re here, we can talk about uplifting your gum health.
Your gums do real work in keeping your teeth upright. Find out more about periodontal treatment with Sunny Smiles.

When your child reaches their teen years, there’s more to look out for than just a grouchy attitude. They have real health needs, and as a parent, it’s your job to make sure that they have what they need to come out on the other side in a healthy way. Their smile is no exception, as their third and final set of molars arrive just around when they start driving. So, make sure that you keep your teen on a positive schedule of dental checkups, so they have consistent imagery to track their wisdom teeth.
Here at Sunny Smiles, our office helps teens to grow into happy and healthy smiles. We understand the importance of tracking their wisdom teeth development, and when it’s time to talk to an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon (OMS) for their extraction, we can help your family understand the process. Their third and final molars can pose some serious smile problems if ignored, so make sure that you’re taking the time to keep your teen close to the dentist while they grow into adulthood.
If they have started driving, their wisdom teeth might be coming, too. Schedule their next checkup at Sunny Smiles, and let’s take a look at their teeth.
