Whitening procedures of Sunrise Family Dental Care have effectively restored the smile of people with stained, dull, or discolored teeth in Waterbury, Connecticut and surrounding areas.
The darker tissue of your teeth, the dentin, can become exposed as the outer layer of enamel is worn away by the effects of aging or things like caffeine and tobacco.
Food particles are naturally attracted to a tooth’s enamel by a certain protein. Products like coffee and tea, berries and soy sauce are notorious for staining teeth. Over time, teeth actually become more absorbent and vulnerable to staining from food and other substances.
One type of stain-caused by traumatic injuries, medications and fluorosis-actually begins inside the tooth; brushing and flossing don’t help. Another type of stain-one that can be more easily attacked by brushing, flossing and rinsing-is caused by external factors such as foods.
Professional whitening performed by our office is considered to be the most effective and safest method; done properly, tooth whitening can last as long as five years. Over-the-counter whitening systems are somewhat effective as long as they are monitored and directions followed closely.

Sunrise dental has always treated my family and I with professionalism and expertise, all of their staff are very kind and extremely knowledgeable.
Dr. Lathuras and her team are as good as it gets. The staff are wonderful, caring and attentive. This is a first class operation and I recommend Sunrise to everyone.
My 9 year old son and I went to Sunrise today. What a great experience for both of us. We both had our 6 month cleaning. What a great staff, from the front desk, to the hygienist, to the doctor… thank you!
Best and most comfortable dental cleaning I ever had.
Yes, I had a tooth extracted but everyone in the office was amazing and made me feel very comfortable. My dentist explained everything and made sure I was comfortable and ok the entire time!!!
