Wisdom Teeth Can Pose Real Problems

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.

Is Your Rest Holding You Back?

holding you back el paso tx

Without a quality night of sleep, it can be truly tough to be yourself. Unfortunately, for some people, that is just not possible without some extra help. Chronic obstructive sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder that affects approximately 30 million of us on a nightly basis. This happens in your deepest form of slumber called REM, when the body acts a little differently than it does during waking hours. Loud or intrusive snoring is one of the hallmark signs of this condition, so if your loved ones have mentioned yours, let’s talk about it.

Here at Sunny Smiles, we work hard to help people experience safer sleep. Chronic obstructive sleep apnea can significantly increase a person’s risk of heart attack, stroke, and even type 2 diabetes, so it’s important to find a treatment solution. For some people, however, traditional CPAP simply won’t work due to its discomfort and noise. That’s why we are proud to offer oral appliance therapy, which works to fight back against sleep apnea in a different way.

When your rest becomes a problem, see if mandibular advancement can make an impact. To find out more about oral appliance therapy, call Sunny Smiles.

When You Break A Tooth, Make The Call

break a tooth

Your smile’s safety depends on the strength of your enamel. This is the form of tissue that makes up the hard external surface of the tooth, and it does a lot of work for you. It handles chewing, helping you to enjoy the foods that you love, and enamel helps your teeth to continue looking great. But this material can be compromised due to tooth decay, injury, or something else, and when it does, you’re ready to discuss your next steps. Because when bacteria find their way inside, it can cause some major problems.

With our team at Sunny Smiles, you have a team that’s ready to renew your smile. We understand that broken teeth can happen, and when they do, it’s important to reach out to a trusted, neighborhood dental office. With effective, attractive restoration solutions, we have options that are designed to help you live your life again after experiencing dental damage. So, don’t put it off any longer.

A broken tooth is a serious smile liability. Find out more about restoration with Sunny Smiles.

You are not the only one in your family who needs to see the dentist. Your entire crew has a schedule of biannual checkups, and when they miss them, they can start to accumulate bacterial buildup along the gumline and on the surface of their teeth.

We’re proud to be a trusted, local resource for parents and children alike, and we’re here to help y’all to find your way to a positive path of prevention.
