When tooth decay is serious enough to require restorative dental work, the damage to your enamel is permanent. Fortunately, a dental filling or dental crown can be made to imitate your tooth structure and prevent issues with the way you look! Sunny Smiles can provide restorations that do a good job protecting a tooth while also preserving your appearance. The tooth-colored resin substance we use to make lifelike fillings bonds directly to your enamel, creating a lasting form of support that provides you with confidence in both your bite function and appearance. Fillings are the more conservative treatment option when someone comes to us for cavity treatment. You can avoid problems with larger cavities by visiting your dentist for regular oral health checkups! (more…)

3 Things To Know About Toothaches
A toothache can quickly turn into more than just a distraction or irritation. If the pain persists, it can be a sign that you have a serious cavity, or that a physical injury has led to an internal problem.

They also put themselves in situations where they have to endure pain and limited bite support for a longer period of time. At Sunny Smiles, we can evaluate your tooth and determine how your problem can be addressed. When necessary, we can bring patients in for emergency dental work. (more…)

Why Do Wisdom Teeth Cause Problems For People?
If your wisdom teeth start to arrive, you can experience problems with pain, sensitivity, and even crowding due to lack of space for them. Wisdom teeth often erupt at uncomfortable angles, or fail to erupt fully, due to a lack of room. Because of this, they are often extracted early to prevent potential complications. At Sunny Smiles, we can check on the movement of your wisdom teeth and let you know when the time is right to remove them. To take them without affecting your neighboring teeth, we can carefully expose these teeth in order to remove them without adversely affecting the neighboring molars. (more…)
