ROUTINE & EMERGENCY EXAMS
Regular dental exams help maintain your oral health by identifying issues early, before they become more serious. During your visit, our team will assess your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. If you’re experiencing pain or a dental emergency, we provide prompt evaluations to diagnose the issue and get you the care you need quickly.
DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING
We use safe, modern imaging technology, such as digital X-rays, to get a clear view of what’s happening below the surface. These images help detect cavities, infections, bone loss, and other concerns that may not be visible during a standard exam, allowing us to create the most effective treatment plan for you.
CLEANINGS & EDUCATION
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone can’t eliminate. During your visit, our team also provides personalized guidance on brushing, flossing, and daily habits to help you maintain a healthy smile between appointments.
TOPICAL FLUORIDE TREATMENT
Fluoride treatments strengthen tooth enamel and help prevent cavities. This quick and painless application provides an added layer of protection, especially for children and individuals at higher risk for tooth decay.
SEALANTS
Dental sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to help prevent cavities. This quick, painless treatment creates a barrier against food and bacteria, making it especially beneficial for children and patients prone to tooth decay.
FILLINGS
Fillings are used to repair teeth affected by cavities or minor damage. We remove the decayed portion of the tooth and restore it with a durable material, helping to strengthen the tooth and prevent further decay while maintaining a natural look and function.
SIMPLE EXTRACTIONS
When a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be repaired, a simple extraction may be recommended. Our team performs extractions with care and comfort in mind, ensuring a smooth procedure while protecting your overall oral health and preventing further complications.
REFERRALS FOR CARE
If you need specialized dental care beyond what we offer, our team will connect you with trusted providers to ensure you receive the treatment you need. We help coordinate referrals and share relevant information so your care is as seamless and stress-free as possible, supporting your overall oral health every step of the way.

RESOURCES
Sunshine Clinic is a wonderful blessing. I needed dental work my teeth where a mess, years a neglect. Dr Bowen is my dentist there. He helped me to get my teeth back to a healthy condition with the least amount of pain. He actually cares what needs to be done not just the least expensive solution. He is very attentive to the patient needs.
