Dr . Poling shares his knowledge as a dentist in the South Hills
Abeautiful smile is always your best accessory . But a great set of pearly whites requires regular maintenance . And if you have a fear of dental work ( which is not uncommon ), you may be neglecting one of your most important assets . Teeth are essential to good nutrition and subsequently your overall health . Your fear of dental work could be robbing you of the healthy teeth you deserve .
But what if you could sleep through a necessary procedure , and awake to healthier , more lovely teeth ? Dr . Scott Poling is an expert at making this happen .
“ Not every dentist offers IV sedation for dental procedures ,” explains Dr . Poling . “ But what sets us apart is our extensive training and experience in this area . I ’ m certified to provide anesthesia and have performed IV-conscious sedation for thousands of patients . My entire staff has been thoroughly trained in this type of dentistry as well , and I bring in a nurse anesthetist for the procedure .” For people who suffer with anxiety about a dental visit , this is a real blessing .
Dr . Poling is able to perform tooth extractions , root canals , oral surgery and many other complex dental procedures , and the sedation process makes it a bit easier for patients . He treats a range of people , from infants to those in their 90s . However , he prefers to offer the IV sedation only to those 17 and over . For younger patients , Dr . Poling has found that nitrous oxide works well when treatment is required .
Another innovative procedure that Poling Family Dental Care offers is All-on-X dental implants . For those who need to replace an entire set of teeth , these implants offer a permanent and aesthetic solution . This remarkable procedure can also be completed in one day , with the patient walking out with an aesthetic temporary prosthesis ! After the implants integrate , the final lab work is completed in-house , allowing Dr . Poling to drastically outcompete other companies providing this treatment .
Poling Family Dental Care can provide a consultation to see if a patient is a good candidate for this type of restorative option .
Besides major dental procedures , many people are concerned with the appearance of their teeth . Fortunately , there are several options for today ’ s patients who want to have whiter teeth , offering both in-office and home treatments . For a more permanent solution , patients may want to consider veneers and crowns , which can totally transform a smile . There are also great options for straightening teeth with clear orthodontic appliances , correcting bite issues and , perhaps most important , improving confidence .
Dr . Poling credits his staff for the high-quality care the practice is able to provide . “ We have excellent office staff who are friendly and caring , as well as our clinical staff who are remarkable ! We have many 5-star reviews about them … I ’ m very proud of the team we have .”
Besides being a dentist , Dr . Poling is also a father with a son who plays hockey . He truly understands that accidents will happen , and that it ’ s important to have a dentist you can trust who ’ s available when those emergencies happen . Dr . Poling is available for his patients 24 / 7 .
