Not all patients respond the same way to having to undergo treatment at the dentist. That’s why we at Carmel Commons Dental offer sedation dentistry to help put uneasy patients at ease during their visit for treatment. Dr. Timpton and the team at Carmel Commons Dental offer a few different options for sedation dentistry. Typically, sedation will be offered as gas or a general anesthetic that will numb areas where work is being done or help patients fall asleep and stay under while work is being done. We also offer IV sedation through the placement of an IV and medication to put patients into a deep state of relaxation.

In some sedation dentistry procedures, patients will be fully awake, but feel nothing as treatment is completed. In others, patients will sleep through the treatment and wake up with little to no memory of work being done. Treatments done under sedation dentistry can be completed in as little as one office visit.

Contact Carmel Commons Dental to learn more about our sedation dentistry procedures and whether or not you are a good candidate for this work in our office.

One of the more painful dental problems that can happen to people has little to do with their actual teeth. Chronic pain in the face and jaw is often due to a dental issue called TMJ. This painful condition is a dysfunction of your jaw. A source of pain in your jaw will start to hurt the joints and muscles in your jaw, causing pain, headaches, swelling, and popping sounds in your jaw when chewing.

Dr. Timpton and Carmel Commons Dental can treat TMJ through non-surgical methods. We can locate the source of the pain and effectively eliminate it to help you feel better. If you are suffering from discomfort that might be TMJ, call Carmel Commons Dental and ask our experts for help.

Dental Bonding

At Carmel Commons Dental, dental bonding can be done to fill in gaps between teeth, as well as repair broken or chipped teeth and enhance misshapen teeth. For those who may not be able to afford the expense of a veneer treatment, dental bonding may be an appealing option.

How dental bonding works is that a tooth-colored composite will be applied to the front of your teeth and sculpted to produce a great new look. You can trust Dr. Timpton and the experts at Carmel Commons Dental to handle the dental bonding process for you. Dental bonding can improve your smile at a more affordable price than the use of veneers. Call us today to learn more about this and other advanced services.
