Scheduling Your Next Teeth Cleaning
If you want to keep your teeth in good health, you should care for your smile each day. Brushing twice a day and flossing once protect you against plaque and tartar, and these habits also keep food particles from gathering on your smile. As important as these habits are, they are not the only forms of teeth cleaning that you should enjoy. At regular intervals, you should see your dentist for routine services, which include professional teeth cleanings. Sunny Smiles can provide this care as part of your regular preventive services. Whenever you come in, we will also provide important feedback about your smile by providing a thorough evaluation of your teeth and gums. (more…)
Smile Changes We Can Make With Veneers

3 Problems A Dental Crown Can Address
When you see your dentist out of concern for a tooth’s health, you can find that treatment can preserve both the tooth’s health and appearance. Sunny Smiles can preserve your smile while performing treatment, as we can provide dental crowns that imitate your enamel. These restorations are used in a number of different circumstances. While treatment is commonly provided for dental decay, other problems, like physical trauma, can also call for professional care. Of course, our goal is to provide the most conservative care possible and limit changes to your tooth structure. After an examination, we can determine if a dental filling or cosmetic treatment is recommended instead of a dental crown. (more…)

If you have a severe toothache, or pain that has not subsided after a short time, let your dentist know. The pain you feel could be a symptom of a problem that requires restorative dental work.

Why We Discuss Periodontal Health At Dental Checkups
Your dental checkups are important for many reasons, not just because they provide help with possible cavity problems. During a review of your oral health, your dentist will look out for any signs of trouble. One particular concern is gum disease. If symptoms of gingivitis are present during your appointment, we can arrange a periodontal cleaning. This service removes bacteria that are present on the roots of your teeth below your gum line. Your periodontal tissues can recover from infection when this removal occurs, so you will not have to worry about complications from gum disease. While Sunny Smiles is ready to help you preserve healthy gums, you should also take care to protect these tissues between visits! (more…)
Using A Whitening Kit Provided By Your Dentist
People who turn to store bought whitening treatments can have high hopes for their smile. Unfortunately, at the end of using these treatments many can feel let down by a lack of change in their enamel color. Does this mean there is just no way to make their teeth as white as they might like? Whitening kits that are available at your local store or pharmacy can help with discoloration, but they can fail to produce the results you really want. At Sunny Smiles, you can take home a customized whitening kit provided by your dentist. Kits that we provide to patients include more potent bleaching agents as well as customized trays to make daily applications easier. (more…)
Is Everyone In Your Family Receiving The Right Dental Care?
While dental care remains important throughout your life, the approach to care taken by your dentist should change through the years. In other words, younger patients who come in for pediatric dental care should have different experiences in the dentist’s chair than adults who require routine dental checkups and cleanings. Sunny Smiles wants you to know that our practice is ready to provide quality care for patients of all ages. For both adults and children, we can offer preventive services that make maintaining healthy smiles easier. When necessary, we are ready to provide the appropriate restorative dental work to address problems before they can worsen. (more…)
