Since September of 2018, Dr. Hinton has been seeing patients in the Hospital Operating Room

Dr. Tasha Hinton is one of the few general dentists in the state of North Carolina that is fully credentialed to perform dentistry in the operating room. Patients who can benefit from this service include children in need of extensive dental work, special needs patients, medically-compromised patients, or those with severe dental anxiety. These cases are performed at WakeMed Hospital in Raleigh, NC.

Prior to the procedure, Dr. Hinton will evaluate your dental needs, take necessary images to assist in her treatment plan, and go over surgical consent forms with you. Patients being treated in the operating room will need their primary care physicians to complete a history and physical form within 30 days of the operating room appointment.

Our business team will be able to address all of the financial and insurance questions pertaining to the dental procedures only. We are also a sponsor and preferred provider for the Autism Society of NC and Special Care Dentistry Association.

People with special needs are often unable to tolerate a routine dental visit. They may require treatment under general anesthesia for a comprehensive oral examination and a full-mouth series of X rays to diagnose any dental problems.

Other prevalent reasons for treatment under general anesthesia for people with special needs include:

  • Corrective procedures for children with severe wear of their teeth due to grinding or clenching (bruxism)
  • Dental decay from ingesting high-calorie substances required for feeding problems, which promote tooth decay
  • Extraction to allow permanent teeth to erupt when it does not occur naturally
  • Fractured teeth resulting from falls, requiring fillings or extractions
  • Scaling of the teeth or gum surgery to correct overgrown gums or to remove tartar build up
  • Severe anxiety
  • An inability to cooperate due to age, compromised health, special needs or extensive dental needs
  • Medically compromised patients such as Dementia, Seizure Disorders, Brain Injuries
