This allows us to monitor for any signs of tooth decay, oral infections, and even gum disease and creates a treatment plan before the condition becomes more problematic.

Patients who neglect to visit their cleaning dentist regularly for dental exams often have increased cavities, infections, gum disease, and even bad breath. Regularly visit a dentist in Encinitas, CA, to get dental exams near you to avoid such dental issues.

Filling Replacement

Filling Replacement


Do you currently have unsightly, unhealthy, and unsafe amalgam fillings? For many years, silver fillings were the only option patients had when it came to treating tooth decay and preventing further complications; however, research has shown that these amalgam fillings also contain mercury. If this is the case, consulting a cosmetic filling replacement dentist is highly recommended.

About Amalgam Fillings

Silver “amalgam” fillings have been used for decades by dentists around America and can be unsightly, leaving dark spots on your teeth. Silver fillings are made using a metal “amalgam,” containing about 50% mercury and 50% of other metals, including silver, tin, and copper.

Due to their composition, metal fillings also tend to expand and contract, occasionally breaking teeth. Temperature sensitivity is also reported in some patients who have opted for amalgam fillings in Encinitas, Carlsbad, La Costa, Cardiff, Leucadia, Del Mar, and Rancho Santa Fe.

TMJ & TMD Treatment

TMJ & TMD Treatment


Most patients with TMJ disorder (TMD) have mild or periodic symptoms that tend to get better over time. With simple home therapy, discomfort may improve within a few weeks or months. Common self-care practices include applying moist heat or ice, eating soft foods, and avoiding excessive jaw movement (e.g., chewing gum, singing loudly, wide yawning). These habits can help ease TMD symptoms. Because more research is needed on the best treatment for TMJ’ effectiveness and safety, experts today agree that the most conservative approaches possible are preferable. In addition, reversible treatment methods are strongly recommended.

TMJ & TMD Treatment near you

Conservative TMD & TMJ treatments near you do not involve invasive surgery or penetrate the jaw, joint or facial tissues. Reversible jaw joint therapies do not cause permanent changes in the jaw or teeth’ position or structure. Even severe or persistent TMJ disorders still do not require aggressive treatment services.

If your jaw joint issues worsen with time, contact us at Sinclair Smiles in Encinitas, CA. Seek advice and educate yourself about your condition. Informed patients are better equipped to ask appropriate questions, communicate effectively with doctors, and make knowledgeable treatment decisions.
