Is it time for you to schedule your next dental exam? Unless you are told otherwise by your dentist, you should arrange a checkup every six months to stay current with preventive care. Delaying appointments, or taking a break from scheduled care, can lead to issues like tartar buildup, and even lead to the onset of a tooth infection because of an untreated cavity. Sunny Smiles is prepared to help patients of all ages stay consistent with preventive care. We provide routine checkups and cleanings for adults as well as pediatric visits for kids. At your next visit, we can make sure your smile is healthy and provide a thorough teeth cleaning. If necessary, we can also discuss services to restore your dental well-being if a problem is identified. (more…)

Arranging Dental Visits For Your Family
While everyone in your family should maintain attractive, healthy teeth, you and your kids can have different needs and concerns when it comes to dental care. Simply put, children know less about oral hygiene, or about the threat posed by problems like cavities. Because of this, they can benefit from more guidance and instruction at regular checkups. For adults, information is still important, but regular checkups provide more support by offering early detection and treatment for problems that can worsen over time and become more difficult to manage. Sunny Smiles is able to provide people of all ages with the kind of dental care that truly benefits them. Because of this, we can provide the right support for everyone in your household! (more…)
Your Interest In Cosmetic Dentistry
With the right treatment, you can start showing off a smile that is bright, symmetrical, and youthful.

Sunny Smiles provides patients with several treatment options that can address discoloration, damage, problems with tooth shape and size, and even the appearance of gum tissues. By discussing your desired changes and learning more about the procedures that are available to you, it becomes easier to plan care that can give you stunning results! (more…)
Your Smile After Restorative Treatment
After a successful cavity treatment, you can be free of problems with your oral health. Will you also be free of issues with your smile? Patients who come to Sunny Smiles for restorative treatment can undergo dental care that preserves their appearance. We use fillings and crowns that are capable of matching the look of healthy enamel. In addition to preserving your appearance, these restorations will enable you to maintain your natural bite function, as your teeth will remain secure. In addition to helping patients who experience problems with their dental well-being, we are ready to help you and everyone in your family avoid oral health difficulties by providing preventive care.

Dental Crowns Can Address Tooth Injuries
While dental decay is a serious problem, one that calls for a visit with your dentist, it is not the only issue that can create difficulties for your oral health. While they are protected by a strong outer layer of enamel, teeth are still vulnerable to physical harm. If your tooth is broken, chipped, or cracked, Sunny Smiles can protect it with a custom crown. This protection offers support in two important ways. One benefit to receiving your crown is that it can restore your ability to bite and chew without discomfort. Another is that it can restore the way you look, which means you will not have to worry about physical damage altering your smile! (more…)
Schedule Teeth Cleanings To Fight Tartar
Are you doing an effective job fighting tartar buildup? Every time you brush and floss your teeth, you can remove bacteria and food debris, as well as any plaque buildup, before tartar can start to form on your smile. Unfortunately, one thing you are not able to do is remove tartar buildup that is already present. These deposits will remain in place until your next scheduled teeth cleaning, where your hygienist can remove them and any other harmful agents. Regular teeth cleanings are an important part of your preventive care. Sunny Smiles provides cleanings and exams for patients of all ages in and around the El Paso, TX area. By making these appointments a consistent part of your oral health care routine, you lower your risk for dental health troubles and receive helpful early warnings about issues that have already started to develop.

Treating A Dental Emergency
At Sunny Smiles, we regularly see patients for routine preventive dental care. These preventive appointments play an important role in helping a person maintain their well-being over time. After all, they provide cleanings and evaluations that reduce your risk for problems and lead to their identification and early treatment. While we certainly hope you only need to visit us for exams and cleanings, you should know that we are prepared to meet with you when something is wrong, even when the problem calls for urgent care! We can meet with you to provide prompt care for an injury or issue with severe pain in order to identify and resolve the matter. (more…)
Helpful Information Regarding Tooth Pain
If you are struggling with tooth pain, it may be difficult to think clearly about what steps you should take to address the matter. One important detail to remember is that if you are in serious pain, or if your pain has been a problem for a worrying length of time, emergency dental care is available. Problems with persistent or serious pain can call for restorative treatment. If you do not go in for care in time, the problem can worsen so much that tooth extraction is the only option left for your care. Sunny Smiles provides a variety of services for patients affected by oral health problems, including problems that cause tooth pain to occur. After work is complete, we can restore the tooth in question to preserve its appearance and ability to provide bite support. (more…)
Why Patients Ask About Porcelain Veneers
If you have growing doubts about the quality of your smile, or if there are naturally occurring flaws that have always made you self-conscious, you can gain beneficial information by asking your dentist about porcelain veneers. With these thin, custom-made porcelain shells, we can make your smile brighter, hide conspicuous flaws, and generally improve your appearance by making your teeth more uniform. Sunny Smiles provides this service along with a variety of other cosmetic procedures that can make exciting changes to the way you look. Even if you have several changes you want to make, you can find that veneers are able to address all of your concerns with a single procedure! (more…)
