Dental Examination
Before Dr. Shah makes a recommendation for specific dental treatments, she’ll need to understand exactly what your smile needs. That’s where a dental exam and cleaning come into play. At these appointments that should be scheduled every six months, the dentist will evaluate your dental and oral health, and the hygienist will provide a refreshing cleaning. Digital x-rays will be taken once a year and we’ll also assess the health of your gum tissue.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
At each dental checkup, we’ll conduct an oral cancer screening in order to find tissue that looks suspiciously pre-cancerous or cancerous. We look for early warning signs such as a scaly patch, a sore that won’t heal or a lump in any oral tissue.

Teeth Cleaning
Although each patient has their own unique dental needs and smile goals, there’s something that’s recommended for every single one: biannual dental checkups and teeth cleanings. These routine appointments are crucial because they allow our Arlington dental team to both catch dental problems in the early stages and help prevent others from developing altogether. Want to learn more? Then schedule an appointment with us or read on!
Fluoride Treatment
Of course! Caring for whole families is very important to our team at South Arlington Dental Care, and the littlest members are no exception. We always provide your son or daughter with the friendly, gentle approach they need to feel right at home, and children's dentistry services like fluoride treatments and dental sealants protect their smiles as they grow and thrive. Take a look at our children’s dentistry page to learn more!
Dental Sealants
Deeply grooved and pitted molars are especially at risk for decay. Dental sealants are clear plastic coatings that we paint on teeth in order to seal out bacteria. Although the treatment is almost always recommended for children, dental sealants can also be helpful for adults, too.

Fillings
Veneers
How often do you hide your mouth when talking or taking pictures because you do not like how your teeth look? Even one time is too many. If you do not like the smile nature gave you or if it has been damaged over the years, you do not need to live with the results if you don’t want to. South Arlington Dental Care can help you achieve the smile of your dreams with porcelain veneers. Read on to learn more about this amazing cosmetic service!
Crowns
An important cornerstone of restorative care is dental crowns, which are individual restorations designed to “cap” over a tooth. This restores the tooth’s natural strength and size, protecting it from further harm. Dr. Shah might recommend the placement of a dental crown in a variety of situations, including severe decay, a dental injury, weakened structure, fractures and aesthetic concerns. This procedure typically requires two to three appointments.
Bridges
When you arrive at our office, we’ll do everything possible to save the tooth and get it back into your open socket so it can heal properly. Assuming we aren’t able to place the tooth back into your mouth, your tooth replacement options include dental bridges and dental implants. Both come with their own unique differences that we’ll go over if the tooth cannot be saved.
Dental Bonding
Restorative Dentistry
Cavities, missing teeth, and severe infections can all be addressed with the help of restorative dentistry. At South Arlington Dental Care, we rely on the proven effectiveness of custom-made dental crowns near Pantego, dental bridges, root canal treatment, and personalized dentures to rebuild and restore damaged and decayed smiles. These time-tested solutions not only produce natural-looking restorations and prosthetics but also allow for healthier smiles that can last a lifetime.

Root Canal Treatment
You’ve likely heard someone say, “I’d rather have a root canal,” when talking about something unpleasant. Many people associate a root canal with severe pain and try to avoid going to the dentist for this treatment. But it’s not as bad as its mythical reputation makes it out to be. Root canal therapy doesn’t cause pain; in fact, it is the very thing that removes pain and spares you from having a tooth extracted. Plus, Dr. Shah has the expertise and gentle touch to address the problem without discomfort. If you know that your tooth needs a root canal, don’t put off coming to our team for help. We can get you back to full oral health in no time!

Deep Cleaning

Dentures
Whether it’s due to trauma or the ultimate result of poor oral health, missing teeth can have a huge impact on your life; eating is much more difficult, it can be hard to speak properly, and you become more reluctant to smile in public. To help patients overcome these inconveniences, Dr. Prachi D. Shah is happy to offer dentures to replace multiple teeth in the jaw; if you need restorative work done, schedule a consultation with us today.

Dental Implants
Losing one or more teeth can be a devastating blow for your self-confidence, oral health, and overall quality of life. Thankfully, dental implants in Arlington can transform a lacking smile for the better, seamlessly restoring strength and natural beauty. With the help of a board-certified in-house specialist here at South Arlington Dental Care, Dr. Prachi Shah often provides the entire dental implant procedure in one convenient location, taking you through impressions, placement, and restoration in a familiar, comfortable environment. We can’t wait for you to see the incredible results that dental implants create! Contact our Arlington, TX practice today to schedule a dental implant consultation. Our team welcomes patients from all over the Arlington area, including Fort Worth, Burleson, Grand Prairie, Mansfield, and beyond.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Despite needing oral surgery, you don’t need to dread a painful procedure. Sedation or anesthesia are used, so your body won’t register pain. Your mouth will also be numbed using a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable. It’s normal for your mouth to be a bit tender for a few days post-op, but you can manage it using any prescribed or OTC pain relievers recommended by your dentist. You can also apply a cold compress to the outside of your face to numb the area, which will also help minimize any swelling or bruising. It’s best to stick to a soft diet for a few days until your tenderness subsides. If your pain worsens or doesn’t improve after 2-3 days, contact our office for further instructions.
Tooth Extractions
Wisdom teeth extractions are a common procedure. In fact, they have become a sort of rite of passage for many young adults. Still, you might wonder what exactly the wisdom teeth are, why they often need to be removed, and what you can expect if you must undergo the extraction procedure. This page explains everything you need to know about your wisdom teeth.
Bone Grafting
Dental implants are the most reliable option to replace missing teeth. They have a high success rate when used by the ideal candidate and when placed by a qualified dentist. You’ll undergo a thorough consultation to assess your oral and general health to look for any potential concerns. It’s not uncommon to need additional procedures to ensure your smile is healthy to support the posts, such as periodontal therapy or bone grafting. If you have certain medical conditions or take specific medications that compromise your ability to heal or fight infections, your dentist will take precautions to protect your safety and the success of your new smile.

Orthodontics
Well respected by her peers, Dr. Shah has enjoyed serving dental patients across the US in New York, New Mexico, California, and now Texas. Her goal is to create personalized dental care to restore patients to their optimal dental and overall health. Dedicated to lifelong learning, Dr. Shah has completed post-graduate training in pediatric dentistry and orthodontics, as well as continuing education in numerous dental specialties including TMJ and dental sleep medicine. She is hoping to help children and adults who suffer from sleep apnea, sleep-related breathing disorders, and snoring. She maintains professional membership in numerous dentistry organizations including the American Dental Association, Texas Dental Association, Fort Worth Dental Society, Arlington Study Club, and American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. Dr. Shah holds certifications in nitrous oxide and Level 1 oral sedation.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Not for every patient, but many people do find that Invisalign is the best treatment for their smiles. Some of the benefits of seeking orthodontic treatment using Invisalign include...
Braces
Everyone wants a straight smile, but sadly, there are many patients who aren't able to achieve one naturally. Traditional orthodontic solutions are available, but the noticeable braces and years of commitment can be too much of a hurdle, especially for adults who’ve worked hard to maintain a professional, polished appearance. Thankfully, there’s an alternative at South Arlington Dental Care – Six Month Smiles. With Six Month Smiles, you can transform your smile in a much faster and more aesthetically pleasing fashion. In fact, just like the name suggest, most patients are finished with their treatment in just six months. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation with Dr. Prachi Shah, don't wait - contact our Arlington, TX practice today !

Teeth Whitening
If you are like most adults, you have noticed your teeth are starting to darken as you get older. Maybe it’s the result of coffee, wine, tobacco, poor dental hygiene, or just the simple aging process -- as we get older, the tooth enamel becomes more brittle and prone to absorbing pigments from what you eat. Fortunately, there is a solution in professional teeth whitening from the dentist in Arlington.

With Sunbit, you can smile now and worry about the payments later. If you need restorative work or just want to improve your smile with cosmetic dentistry, Sunbit has you covered. Apply for Sunbit
