Grand Opening Specials

To celebrate Family Dental Care’s Grand Opening in Covington, WA, Dr. K. Singh is offering special prices on high-quality dental care!

New patients can now come in for a dental exam and X-rays for only $29.99! To add teeth cleaning to your check up, it is currently only $79.99!

If any of your teeth have reached a point where they have become so weak or decayed that the tooth structure is compromised, a crown can be used to protect and reinforce it. By covering a weak or broken tooth and restoring it to its original size and shape, a crown reduces pain and saves the tooth from needing to be extracted, and currently, Dr. Singh is offering crowns at only $699.99!

If a tooth does need to be extracted, dental implants offer an attractive solution to gap left in your smile. Since teeth can shift out of place after a tooth has been removed, and since teeth that shift are more susceptible to disease and decay, a replacement tooth is necessary and dental implants look and feel natural, and with the Grand Opening Special, you can get implants starting at $699.99!

To find out more about these specials or to schedule an appointment at our practice in Covington, call (253) 239-3699. You can also find more information at www.singhcovingtondentalcare.com.

Root Canal Therapy

While the thought of having a root canal usually fills patients with dread, it is a necessary procedure for those whose teeth become infected in the nerves. Besides causing pain, infections, if left untreated, can become abscesses, which are much more serious and result in a loss of bone mass in the jaw bone. Here at Singh Family Dental Care, Dr. K. Singh can relieve your pain with root canal therapy.

Although root canals do not sound pleasant, they are well worth it to stop your pain and improve your oral health. While there may be a little soreness after the procedure, it is only temporary and usually nothing over-the-counter painkillers cannot take care of.

During a root canal, Dr. Singh removes the infection by applying a local anesthetic to the area and drilling into the tooth to create an opening in the canal. Dr. Singh is then able to remove the infected tissue and clean the area. Once the infection has been removed, your tooth will be filled with gutta percha, a sealant, and then fitted with a crown to protect it from infection in the future. The crown also helps improve the appearance and strength of the tooth.

Once the procedure is complete, you will be able to eat without experiencing pain and sensitivity to heat, cold and pressure. If you’re in pain, you don’t need to suffer. Schedule an appointment with our office in Covington, WA please call 253-239-3699. For more information about our practice, visit www.singhcovingtondentalcare.com.
