An injury to your tooth or mouth can happen to anyone, even when you take good care of your oral health. If you experience a sudden toothache, discomfort, or damage to your smile, you should seek care as soon as possible. Your Sunny Smiles team is here today to explain what situations are considered urgent, and what can wait until your next checkup.
Untreated tooth loss can lead to several problems for your oral health. It can become difficult to chew certain foods, and speak, and can even cause your facial bones to weaken over time. Methods like dental bridges or dentures can help improve your smile’s function, but they don’t help support your jaw. Implant-retained dentures may be able to help replace the roots and crowns of your lost structures and better support your smile. Today, your team at Sunny Smiles explains how this option works.
In yesterday’s blog, we discussed how options like dental bridges or dentures can address various types of tooth loss. These methods may be helpful for patients experiencing large gaps in their smile. Every patient has unique needs, which is why Sunny Smiles offers many different prosthetic options. In today’s blog, we’ll explore the benefits of same-day implants.
Tooth loss is a problem that affects millions of adults in the US. This can happen due to accidents, injuries, or periodontal disease. If you are currently experiencing tooth loss, the team at Sunny Smiles can help you replace your missing pearly whites and improve the function of your oral cavity. In today’s blog, we’ll discuss custom dental bridges and dentures that can address varying degrees of loss.
If you have injured a tooth, it’s important that it is examined and repaired as soon as possible. Common types of damage like cracks or serious cavities can lead to extensive problems if left untreated. Sunny Smiles offers dental crowns that can protect your pearly whites after harm. Today, we’ll explore when and why you may need to cap a tooth.
When was the last time your little ones were in the dental office for their semiannual checkup? If you are struggling to remember, then it may be time for their next appointment. These visits are vital to their oral health success, and their dental habits start at an early age, so it is important to stick to their schedule of treatment. As their summer vacation starts, make sure that before they head out to play and have fun, they have the checkups that they need from a trusted, caring dentist.
At Sunny Smiles in El Paso, TX, we are here to help patients of all ages to care for their smiles. Dental health starts from the time that they receive their very first tooth, and it is something that follows us throughout our entire life, so make sure that they have the right team in place. Their oral health journey also requires a dedication to their visits, and keeping them on the right schedule is a big part of their path. If it has been a while since their last semiannual dental checkup, the summer is a perfect time to renew their focus on their smile, so call our office today to schedule their next appointment!
Dental fillings are a minimally invasive restoration that can help treat a cavity. If the severe has reached an advanced stage, though, you may need a more extensive procedure to restore the area. Sunny Smiles offers root canals that can help stop the progression of serious cavities and protect your pearly whites from damage. In today’s blog, we’re here to talk about what you should know before this procedure.
If you’ve had a cavity before, you’ve likely had a dental filling done. This is a restorative treatment that stops the progression of decay and protects your tooth. In the past, materials like silver amalgam or gold were used for this process. Today, composite resin is a more popular choice due to its lifelike appearance and comfort. Your Sunny Smiles team is here today to explore the many benefits of composite resin.
Cosmetic dentistry is a popular way to improve the appearance of your smile. It can help whiten teeth, get rid of blemishes, and achieve a more balanced look. When deciding which option is best for your needs, what do you consider most important? Some people may want a quick and convenient solution, and others may prefer a long-lasting option, even if it takes longer to complete. Your Sunny Smiles team offers porcelain veneers that give you a permanently stunning smile for years to come. In today’s blog, we’ll explore the many benefits of this method.
In a recent blog, we discussed professional whitening options that can help safely remove stains from your teeth. This option is convenient and effective for many patients, but if you have stubborn blemishes or intrinsic discoloration, you may need alternative ways to improve your appearance. The team at Sunny Smiles also offers dental bonding, contouring, and gum contouring that can transform your pearly whites without making drastic changes.
