Simply by erupting, your wisdom teeth can create several problems for your smile. Their movement can cause considerable discomfort, as these teeth can press against their neighbors to cause damage as well as crowding. Your troubles can worsen further if your wisdom teeth become impacted. Sunny Smiles is prepared to help patients who need to arrange an extraction. We can safely remove your wisdom teeth before you experience complications. If yours have not yet been removed, regular dental exams can give you helpful updates about when an extraction might need to occur to prevent problems. (more…)
Don’t Skip Your Regular Teeth Cleanings!
Are you brushing often enough? Do you do a good job of making flossing part of your daily routine? If so, you are maintaining an important line of defense for your smile. Throughout each day, our teeth are vulnerable to the buildup of harmful oral bacteria as well as food debris from our meals and snacks. Good daily habits help you fight their accumulation, which lowers your risk for problems with tartar buildup, dental decay, and gingivitis. With that being said, your preventive care should not come from you alone, as the services that your dentist provides are also important. Sunny Smiles provides beneficial teeth cleanings and exams for patients of all ages, which help control the buildup of tartar that can cause more risks for dental trouble over time. (more…)
