We understand that missing teeth can affect your daily life, making it difficult to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. That’s why we take a personalized approach to each patient’s needs, ensuring that your dental bridge is tailored to your unique situation and preferences.
Our dental bridges are designed to be durable, long-lasting, and easy to maintain with regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups. We also offer a range of sedation options to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
If you’re ready to restore your smile with a dental bridge, contact us at Singleton Dentist to schedule a consultation. Our friendly and knowledgeable team will be happy to answer any questions you have and guide you through the process to help you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile.
Fillings
At Singleton Dentist, we understand that dental cavities are a common problem that affects people of all ages. If you have a cavity, it’s essential to have it filled as soon as possible to prevent further damage to your tooth and the potential for more extensive dental work down the line.
We offer a variety of filling options to help restore your tooth to its natural strength and function. Our dental team will evaluate your cavity and recommend the best filling material for your needs. Our filling materials include:
- Amalgam: Amalgam is a traditional filling material that is made from a blend of metals, including silver, tin, copper, and mercury. Amalgam fillings are durable, long-lasting, and ideal for back teeth that endure the most wear and tear.
- Composite: Composite fillings are made from a tooth-colored resin that can blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth. These fillings are ideal for front teeth or other visible areas of your mouth.
- Ceramic: Ceramic fillings are made from porcelain and provide a highly aesthetic, natural-looking option for your teeth. These fillings are durable, long-lasting, and can withstand heavy biting forces.
If you suspect you have a cavity, don’t hesitate to contact us at Singleton Dentist to schedule a consultation. We’ll evaluate your dental needs and recommend the best filling option to restore your tooth’s health and function.
Extractions
Dental tooth extraction is a common dental procedure in which a tooth is removed from its socket in the jawbone. It’s typically recommended when a tooth is severely decayed, infected, or damaged beyond repair, or if it’s causing crowding and other dental problems.
At Singleton Dentist, we understand that dental tooth extraction can be a daunting experience. That’s why our experienced dental team is dedicated to ensuring that you receive the best possible care during the procedure.
The process of tooth extraction typically involves the following steps:
- Evaluation: Our dental team will evaluate your tooth and overall dental health to determine the best approach to extraction. We may take X-rays to evaluate the tooth’s root structure and position.
- Anesthesia: We’ll numb the area around the tooth to ensure that you don’t feel any pain or discomfort during the procedure. We also offer sedation options for patients who experience dental anxiety or fear.
- Extraction: Once you’re numb, our dental team will carefully loosen the tooth from its socket and gently remove it. The extraction process typically takes just a few minutes.
- Recovery: After the tooth has been extracted, we’ll provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for the area to promote healing and prevent infection. You may experience some swelling and discomfort in the days following the procedure, but these symptoms can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and ice packs.
At Singleton Dentist, we understand that tooth extraction can be a daunting experience. That’s why we take a personalized approach to each patient’s needs.
Dental Crowns
We offer dental crowns as a highly effective solution for restoring damaged or weakened teeth. Dental crowns are custom-made caps that fit over your tooth to improve its strength, appearance, and function.
Our dental team uses high-quality materials and the latest technology to create dental crowns that look and feel natural. We’ll evaluate your dental needs and recommend the best crown material for your specific case. Our crown options include:
- Porcelain: Porcelain crowns are highly aesthetic and blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth. They’re an excellent option for restoring front teeth that require cosmetic enhancement.
- Ceramic: Ceramic crowns are similar to porcelain crowns but are made from a harder material that can withstand more pressure. They’re an ideal option for molars and other back teeth that endure heavy chewing forces.
- Metal: Metal crowns are highly durable and long-lasting, making them an excellent option for back teeth that experience significant wear and tear. They’re made from a blend of metals, including gold, silver, and other alloys.
- Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM): PFM crowns combine the aesthetic appeal of porcelain with the strength of metal. They’re an ideal option for restoring teeth that require both cosmetic enhancement and durability.
At Singleton Dentist, we take a personalized approach to each patient’s needs and preferences, ensuring that your dental crown treatment is tailored to your unique situation. Our experienced team will guide you through the process, ensuring that your crown fits comfortably, functions optimally, and blends in seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Dentures
Dentures are removable dental appliances that are designed to replace missing teeth and help restore the function and appearance of your smile. They’re made of a combination of acrylic resin and metal and are custom-fitted to your mouth to provide a natural-looking and functional replacement for your missing teeth.
Dentures can be used to replace all of your teeth or just a few missing teeth. They come in two types: full dentures and partial dentures.
Full dentures, also known as complete dentures, are designed to replace all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They consist of a flesh-colored acrylic base that fits over your gums and the roof of your mouth, and a full set of replacement teeth that are attached to the base. Full dentures can be held in place using suction or an adhesive.
Partial dentures are designed to replace one or more missing teeth. They consist of replacement teeth attached to a metal or acrylic framework that’s designed to fit around your existing teeth. Partial dentures are often held in place with clasps that attach to your remaining teeth.
At Singleton Dentist, we offer a range of denture options to help meet each patient’s unique needs.
Sleep Dentistry
Sleep dentistry, also known as sedation dentistry, involves using medication to help you feel calm and relaxed during dental treatments. It’s an ideal option for patients who experience dental anxiety or fear, have a sensitive gag reflex, or need extensive dental work that may take an extended period.
Our experienced dental team will work with you to determine the best sedation option for your unique needs. We offer different types of sedation, including:
- Nitrous oxide: Nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, is a mild sedative that helps you relax during dental treatments. It’s inhaled through a small mask and takes effect quickly, making you feel calm and comfortable throughout your procedure.
- Oral sedation: Oral sedation involves taking a prescription medication before your dental appointment to help you feel relaxed and calm during the procedure. This option requires some planning as you need to take the medication at a prescribed time before your appointment.
- IV sedation: IV sedation is a deeper form of sedation administered through an intravenous line. It helps you achieve a deeper state of relaxation and is ideal for more extensive dental procedures.
At Singleton Dentist, we understand that each patient’s needs and preferences are unique. That’s why we take a personalized approach to sleep dentistry, ensuring that your sedation is tailored to your unique needs and medical history. Our experienced team will closely monitor your vital signs throughout the procedure to ensure your safety and comfort.
