24/7 EMERGENCY DENTAL CARE

If you feel you need either urgent advice or need to see Dr. Sunners, please call our office anytime.
He will provide you with personalized care, whether you are in pain, have an emergency, or happen to be looking for a new Dentist due to your relocation.

DIGITAL CROWNS

Our crowns are made with a digital scanner. This eliminates the need for messy impressions and is wonderful for those who gag easily.

INVISALIGN/CLEAR CORRECT

This is teeth straightening without traditional “metal braces.” They are made of clear thermoplastic material and look similar to teeth whitening trays or mouth guards.

DIGITAL X-RAYS

A digital X-Ray allows us to take an image with approximately 80% less radiation than a standard X-Ray. It will allow for both an accurate view of the teeth and the surrounding structure.

SEALANTS

Dental sealants are thin plastic coatings that are applied to the biting surfaces of the back teeth to protect them from tooth decay. Most tooth decay in children and teens occurs on these surfaces.

FILLINGS

Fillings are done as a treatment for a cavity, a pre-existing broken filling, a cosmetic replacement for a blackened silver amalgam filling, or as a replacement for old worn fillings.

CROWN AND BRIDGE

A crown is a prosthetic tooth replacement. A commonly used lay term for crown, is “Cap.” While a  fixed dental bridge is made up of two or more anchor crowns that are attached on both sides of the replacement tooth or teeth. When these anchor crowns are cemented onto an implant or natural tooth on both sides of the empty space(s), with an attached replacement tooth (or teeth) as one unit, a dental bridge is created.

PLAYSAFE SPORTS MOUTHGUARDS

PlaySafe is the most prescribed mouthguard in the U.S., Europe and Australia. Customized to fit your mouth, statistics show that when worn properly, a protective mouthpiece decreases the risk of injury by 99 percent.

TMJ RELIEF

TMJ stands for Temporomandibular Joint which connects the mandible, which is the lower jaw, to the skull at the temporal bone. This joint has many functions including chewing. Often people clench their teeth and put stress on this joint, when they are emotionally stressed. If someone experiences some or all of the following symptoms, they should be evaluated by Dr. Sunners for Temporomandibular Disorder, also known as TMD.

DENTAL IMPLANTS

A Dental Implant is a small titanium screw that replaces the root portion of a missing tooth. Due to the compatible properties of titanium, a Dental Implant can fuse with the bone to become an anchor for the replacement tooth or teeth in either jaw.

FAMILY CARE

The office of Dr. James R. Sunners, D.D.S. is a full-service Family Dental office with state-of-the-art equipment, procedures and expertise. We provide Dental Treatment for all family members regardless of age. Dr. Sunners has been a member of the Metrowest community for 25+ years.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY

Our Cosmetic Dentistry consists of Professional Strength Whitening Systems, Virtual Invisible Braces, Dental Implants, Dentures and Partial Dentures, Crown and Bridge, as well as Digital Crowns.

WHITENING

Teeth whitening is a wonderful way to restore the natural color of your teeth or can even make them whiter than your natural color in some cases. Professional Dental whitening, works with dental whitening gels that are stronger than over-the-counter store-bought systems.

PARTIAL DENTURES/NON-METAL

Dr. Sunners uses Valplast as his choice of a Thermoplastic (non-metalic) removable flexible partial denture. Each removable Valplast appliance is biocompatible and has unique physical and esthetic properties.

DENTURES

A Denture is a replacement for upper and/ or lower missing teeth. A Full Denture can replace a full set of Upper and/or Lower teeth. A Partial Denture can replace a partial section of missing teeth. In any case, a Denture is always removable, and is not fixed like a Permanent Bridge.

SNORING AND SLEEP APNEA

Silent Nite SL is a custom-fabricated Dental Device that moves the lower jaw into a forward position, increasing space in the airway tube and reducing air velocity and soft tissue vibration.

NIGHTGUARDS FOR GRINDING AND MIGRAINE HEADACHE PREVENTION

If someone you know experiences severe tooth, jaw or facial muscle pain, it may be from the effects of grinding or clenching your teeth. The good news is Dr. Sunners may be able to prescribe a Custom-Made Comfort H/S (Hard/Soft) Bite Splint, which offsets the pain caused by bruxing or grinding your teeth.
