As we reach the new year, you may find yourself with a list of resolutions to help make the most of your 2023.

What you should know is that there are different paths to smile improvement that are offered to patients at Sunny Smiles. For some patients, the right solution is one that involves careful contouring. This could mean contouring for teeth that are too large or jagged, but it can also mean careful work to smooth or even remove periodontal tissues to make changes. (more…)

When Will I Have My Wisdom Teeth Removed?
An otherwise healthy smile can require extraction services, and may even require oral surgery, when wisdom teeth begin to erupt. The simple but frustrating reality for many is that there is simply no space for these teeth, which is why their arrival can create so many problems. Without the right intervention, issues with crowding, enamel damage, and the painful shifting of the wisdom teeth themselves can occur and complicate matters with your smile and well-being. Fortunately, you can turn to Sunny Smiles for support with this matter. Through our support, these third molars can be carefully extracted before they jeopardize your well-being. We can also provide early warnings to patients who come in for regular dental exams, as we can check on their potential movement. (more…)

How General Dental Care Fights Gingivitis
If you are keeping up with good oral hygiene habits, you have less to worry about from threats like dental decay and gum disease. Does this mean you can simply quit booking general dental exams because you have all the protection you need? The trouble with this attitude is that patients can fail to see small but consequential shortcomings in their habits; they can also fail to recognize when problems first begin to develop. At general dental exams booked at Sunny Smiles, patients receive important updates about their teeth and gums. If your visit leads to the discovery of poor gum health, we can take action to prevent complications with this issue. (more…)
