Dental bonding is a versatile procedure that involves the application of a tooth-colored composite resin to repair chipped, cracked, or discolored teeth. The process begins with roughening the tooth’s surface and applying a bonding agent, enabling the resin to adhere securely. The dentist sculpts and shapes the resin to match the natural tooth contours. Finally, a curing light hardens the material, resulting in a seamless and durable restoration that enhances aesthetics and functionality.

Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a preventive dental treatment designed to protect the vulnerable chewing surfaces of molars and premolars from decay. Made of a thin, plastic-like coating, sealants are applied to the pits and fissures of these teeth, effectively forming a barrier that blocks out bacteria and food particles. The process is quick and painless, with the sealant material bonding to the tooth surface after application. Dental sealants provide a valuable defense against cavities, particularly in children and teens.

Cracked Teeth
Cracked teeth are dental fractures due to various factors, such as teeth grinding, biting on hard objects, or trauma. When left untreated, they may lead to pain, sensitivity, and even infection. At Sonrisas Dental Center, we offer effective treatment for cracked teeth based on the severity and location of the fracture. Treatment options may include dental bonding, crowns, root canal therapy, or extraction, if necessary. We aim to preserve the tooth’s integrity and restore its function and aesthetics.

Metal-Free Fillings
Metal-free fillings, also known as tooth-colored or composite fillings, are a modern alternative to traditional amalgam fillings. These fillings are made of a composite resin material that matches the natural color of the tooth, providing a seamless restoration. They are used to treat cavities and minor dental imperfections. During the procedure, the decayed portion of the tooth is removed, and the composite resin is applied and shaped to blend with the tooth’s contours. The result is a durable and natural-looking filling that preserves the tooth’s function.

Night Guards
Night guards are custom-made oral appliances designed to protect teeth from the harmful effects of bruxism, also known as teeth grinding or clenching. These devices are worn during sleep to prevent excessive wear and damage to the teeth and jaw joints. Night guards create a barrier between the upper and lower teeth, cushioning the impact of grinding forces. By reducing the pressure on the teeth, they alleviate symptoms like headaches, jaw pain, and tooth sensitivity associated with bruxism.

Teeth Cleaning & Exams
Teeth cleaning and exams are essential components of preventive dental care. During a dental cleaning, a skilled hygienist removes plaque, tartar, and stains from the teeth, promoting optimal oral health and preventing cavities and gum disease. Regular dental exams involve a comprehensive evaluation of the teeth, gums, and oral tissues to detect any potential issues early on. This proactive approach allows for timely intervention and personalized treatment plans, ensuring a healthy smile for years to come.

Wisdom Teeth Extraction
Wisdom teeth extraction is a common dental procedure to remove the third molars, located at the back of the mouth. Often, these teeth do not have enough space to erupt properly, leading to impacted or misaligned positions. The extraction is performed to prevent potential complications like pain, infection, crowding, and damage to adjacent teeth. The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia, and the dentist or oral surgeon carefully removes the wisdom teeth to promote better oral health and prevent future issues.
