Flower Mound, Texas Residents Visit the Dentist

Whether you have lived in Texas for a long time, or just moving in

to the Flower Mound area; taking care of your teeth eventually involves a visit to the dentist. We are Titensor Family, Implant, Cosmetic & Sedation Dentistry located at 1901 Long Prairie Road, Suite 320, in Flower Mound, Texas, and our specialty is restorative dentistry.

You can reach Dr. Steven Titensor DDS by calling (972) 355-9545.

Going to the dentist for the first time in Flower Mound, or if you have not been for while, can be an unsettling experience for both kids and adults. The very idea of a ‘dentist’ seems to hold negative connotation for many people. If you are an adult who is moving to the Flower Mound area, or your child is preparing to visit the dentist for the first time, here are a few tips that may help ease you into regular dental checkups and put you on the path toward increased oral health and wellness.

Choose an Flower Mound dentist who is appropriate for your needs. When you meet your new dentist for the first time, make an effort to ask questions about the care you will receive. Ask questions that are relevant to your situation including questions about experience, age range of patients, and recommended procedures for any conditions you may have. Get to know your dentist so you feel comfortable with the care you will receive.

Introduce yourself to your Flower Mound dentist and get to know the office staff. Visiting the dentist will seem less of a chore when you feel you have trusted friends who are there to help.

Be prepared to provide your dentist with information. Whether you are experiencing specific pain at that moment, or anticipating a problem, be sure to discuss everything with your dentist. Many patients become intimidated in the office environment and avoid expressing pain or discussing issues. As your dentist, I need to know everything you are experiencing and will be better prepared to help as you ask questions and express your concerns.

I understand that everyone is unique; what works for one person may not work for another. You know what works best for you, and the best way to have a good experience with a Flower Mound dentist is to communicate. Let me know what you are experiencing so that I can make adjustments and help you feel more comfortable and secure.

At Steve Titensor DDS our leading edge treatment in a warm and friendly atmosphere staff will work to make your dental experience a pleasant one. We know it can be frightening to visit the dentist for the first time, or after a long while. We’ll do what we can to make you feel comfortable, secure, and among caring friends.

If you are in Flower Mound, Texas and are ready to visit the dentist again, give us a call at (972) 355-9545, or stop by to meet us; we’re excited to meet you.

Afraid of the Dentist? Your Flower Mound Sedation Dentist Can Help!

If you live near Flower Mound and experience severe anxiety when undergoing (or even thinking about!) dental treatment, oral sedation is for you.

Conscious sedation dentistry is available in Flower Mound at Steven Titensor DDS. We have been providing sedation dentistry for several years with excellent outcomes. Whether it is called relaxation dentistry, oral conscious sedation or anxiety-free dentistry, it is completely safe and very popular for our nervous cosmetic and restorative dental clients.

Though it may sound impossible, with oral conscious sedation, dentistry patients can actually relax during dental visits. In addition, healing times for oral surgery and extensive cosmetic dentistry procedures are often shorter if the patient is sedated during treatment.

Sedation dentistry is great for alleviating anxiety for our Dallas/Ft. Worth patients, and oral conscious sedation can be effective for treating or working with the following:

Teeth sensitivity;
Fear of needles;
A powerful gag reflex;
Difficulty controlling body movement;
Lengthy multi-procedure visits;
Difficulty becoming numb with traditional injections.

If you need dental work more extensive than a filling; such as a root canal, tooth implant, crown replacement or wisdom tooth extraction; call Steven Titensor DDS at (972) 355-9545. When you come to our office at 1901 Long Prairie Road, Suite 320, in Flower Mound, Texas, we can give you more information about sedation dentistry.

Sedation dentistry is only one of the services we offer at Steven Titensor DDS, where your smile is our top priority!

Multi-Procedure Dental Visits in Flower Mound

If you are planning extensive cosmetic dental work, you may be wondering whether to do it all at once or one procedure at a time over an extended period. Here are some factors to consider:

Cost
In the long run, it is less expensive to do it all at once. At Steven Titensor DDS in Flower Mound, we are able to complete several procedures in one visit. We know that complete smile transformations are a significant investment for most Texas residents. We would be happy to discuss affordable dentistry financing options. Call us at (972) 355-9545 to schedule a no-pressure consultation.

Time
With the latest materials and cosmetic dental techniques, healing times are shorter than ever before. However, some procedures such as bone grafting, soft tissue grafting, root canals, and dental implants often require a short healing period.

It is easier physically and psychologically to have the fewest possible visits to your Flower Mound dentist. You should also consider how your dental visits and necessary healing periods will impact your employment and family life. You will have less down time if you receive several procedures at once.

Aesthetic Results
While we routinely achieve great outcomes when doing a smile makeover in steps, porcelain restorations are best fabricated in the same “batch” for the most precise color matching.

Sedation Dentistry

When you come in for a smile analysis, we can discuss oral sedation dentistry. Many cosmetic dental patients benefit from this safe and effective solution for pain and anxiety management. Conscious sedation is especially helpful for procedures such as multiple wisdom teeth extractions and dental implant placement.

Sedation Dentistry in Flower Mound

Picture the following scenario: You are stretched out in a chair at your dentist office holding a remote as you try to tune into your favorite Texas radio station. A woman clips a paper bib around your neck. Someone switches on a bright overhead light and you see latex-gloved hands moving toward your open mouth. You close your eyes.

As you read this, does your heart start to race? Are your palms sweaty?

If so, you may be a good candidate for sedation dentistry. Oral sedation benefits nervous dental patients in Flower Mound every day. Moderate sedation is used for all types of dental procedures such as root canals, dental implants, and wisdom teeth removal. If you are considering extensive restorative or cosmetic dental work, conscious sedation may allow your Flower Mound dentist to complete multiple procedures in a single visit.

Don’t let fear prevent you from getting the dental treatment you need. Schedule a visit with Dr. Steven Titensor to learn about conscious sedation dentistry.
