In this case I find the 3D Extrude effect pretty helpful. Although there's a downside to it, you have to slightly rotate your object to make the sides visible. Also if you want to manually edit the sides you can Expand Appearance, but that doesn't always deliver the best results, means that it splits up the sides (especially curved sides) in sometimes a lot of little areas. In most cases though it works fine.
