Specialty DentistryAt Sunrise Dental, we maintain a strong internal referral network, which allows us to send you to a highly experienced Sunrise Dental specialist, should the need for specialty treatment arises.
We also have round-the-clock dental care staff. These things help us treat all of your dental needs, including specialty treatments like Periodontal treatment, Oral surgery, Orthodontic treatment and Endodontic treatment within our clinics.
In order to treat each other and every patient as an individual with unique dental needs, it is vital to completely assess their oral health. We perform an oral cancer screening, gums, muscles, and joints that open and close the mouth. We will look at your mouth, gums, and bone that hold the teeth in the periodontics and take photos and x-rays as necessary. With this information you and your doctor determine the treatment that is right for you.
Aesthetic dentistry is a facet dentistry that deals with enhancement, restoration, and maintenance of optimal dental health specifically designed for you. It is based on artistic creation in a framework of sound scientific principles. It utilizes the most advanced techniques and materials to give natural looking and feeling results that can greatly enhance your life
Yes, If your gum are bleeding, it probably means you are not brushing enough. Remember, brushing harder does not make up for quality time spent. In fact, on your oral hygiene brushing hard may lead into enamel erosion. Bleeding gums are not healthy. Healthy teeth and gums do not bleed when they are brushed and/or flossed!
It means you have gingivitis or periodontists. Gingivitis is acute of the gums and is reversible if treated and proper home care is maintained. Periodontists is a silent disease that affects the bone and tissues surrounding the teeth. Periodontists are not reversible, but it is treatable. If some gingivitis is not treated, it will lead into periodontitis.
It takes two working dental visits about 4-6 weeks apart. There are some planning visits prior to the working visits to determine what result you want and some follow-up bite adjustment visits. Porcelain veneers do not stain and are as strong as natural teeth. When properly placed they will not come off or break even when eating taffy, caramel, or corn on the cob. Like natural teeth, veneers may break also. You should still practice good dental home care.
The material typically contains about 50% mercury and even though the ADA has deemed it safe. It is still considered a toxic and hazardous material outside the mouth. In fact, several European countries have totally banned the use of the material. Amalgam fillings are very unaesthetic and because of corrosion typically turn dark with time. There are more aesthetic materials to use. Our office does not place amalgam fillings, unless it is asked by our patients.
This is what we call the filled to death syndrome. It happens when the tooth has become weak from the use of silver/mercury fillings and cannot hold up under normal chewing. This problem is easily corrected with Tooth-Colored Fillings or Bonded On lays.
Fees for our professional services may be paid in cash, personal check, major credit card or dental credit, which allows you to spread payments over an extended period of time. We dont ever want finances to keep you from receiving the dental care you deserve.

Don't go here if you're getting an implant or veneers. Dr. Cantu was working here at the time and placed a veneer in my mouth without any bone grafting. I had a dental assistant make me temporary teeth twice and left crying because the coloring of the temporaries were many shades too yellow and would break within two days. I decided to switch to Jilek and found out with my x-rays that Dr. Cantu had set me up for potential health risks. Without the bone grafting, I'm going to be losing my implant within 15 years time, as well as a high risk in getting bacteria caught up in my gums. Without any notification Sunrise switched me to Dr. Ellis and didn't notify me that my doctor would be switched. I never once was shown a plan for what my future smile looked like. I was never able be apart of the veneer process. If you want to go somewhere that shows you a diagram of the smile you want, don't go here. This might not be the experience others are having and I'm glad, but do not go here if you need cosmetics or implants. Dr. Cantu might say he's an "Implant specialist", but there's nothing remotely special with what he failed to do for me.

(Translated by Google) I had an emergency of a tooth that broke and I had already thought that I had to remove my tooth, but Dr. Ellis told me that I could still save my tooth and prepare it for a crown that same day. It gave me much joy. Thank you very much DR.Ellis! (Original) Tenia una emergencia de un diente que se me quebro y ya tenia pensado que tenia que sacarme la muela pero el doctor Ellis me dijo que todavia podia salvar mi muela y preparala pa una corona ese mismo dia Me dio mucha alegria. Muchas Gracias DR.Ellis!

Before visiting with Sunrise Dental I struggled with teeth issues my whole life. Going from dentist to dentist with reoccurring problems. Atlast, Dr. Ellis saved my teeth. Not only did he perform a root canal with a perfectly matching crown, but he also re performed several existing fillings taking them from the old silver and black to the new shinny white fillings. The shots he provides never hurt and he always has good relaxing conversations. Also he has picked some great hygienist who know what they are talking about. Hands down the best dentist I've been to, and I've been to a lot.
