You can gradually lose confidence in the way you look as you gradually pick up more and more enamel stains.

As these particles gather on your teeth, they can cause discoloration that makes your smile less attractive! To deal with this problem, you can look into a professional whitening procedure. Why choose professional teeth whitening treatment over the use of a store bought product? At Sunny Smiles, we provide customized whitening kits that are designed to produce more exciting results, which means you can deal with significant stains that have left you without confidence in your appearance!

Regular Teeth Cleanings Protect Your Enamel
Your dental enamel is strong enough to withstand bite forces for many years. Because of this, we can enjoy a wide-ranging and nutrient-rich diet, as we can break down tougher foods without difficulty. With that said, our teeth are vulnerable to harm, particularly when we do not keep up with good oral hygiene efforts. Your daily efforts to brush and floss remove harmful microbes from your smile to prevent the onset of dental decay. In addition to this support, you can receive important care in the form of professional cleanings provided at regular dental exams. Sunny Smiles can meet with you regularly to protect your smile, and help you avoid the consequences of poor oral hygiene! (more…)

How Does A Filling Imitate Healthy Enamel?
Is there something that your dentist can do to restore your tooth without changing the way you look?
