A professional journey built around hands-on dental care
Dr. Harjinder Singh earned his Bachelor of Dental Surgery degree from Calcutta University in 1984. His early professional years in India exposed him to complex dental and head-and-neck care and helped shape the procedure-focused direction that would continue through his later career.
Earlier in his career, Dr. Singh worked for approximately seven years at the M.D. Oswal Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation in Ludhiana, India. His work there included dental oncology and dental care connected with head-and-neck cancer treatment. He also completed continuing education related to head-and-neck cancer surgery at Tata Memorial Institute in 1988.
Dr. Singh moved to the United States in 1994. He subsequently completed the examination and licensing pathway required to practice dentistry in the United States and California, and his Yuba City professional history extends back more than two decades.
Over time, his practice became increasingly concentrated on procedures rather than routine checkups, cleanings and fillings. Today, Harjinder Singh DDS, Inc. focuses on tooth removal, wisdom teeth, difficult extraction cases, dental implants, full-arch implant treatment, implant-supported dentures, sedation for appropriate patients and selected related procedures.

Meet Dr. Harjinder Singh
A short introduction from Dr. Singh can give patients something written biography cannot: a direct sense of the dentist, his professional perspective and the procedure-focused practice he has built in Yuba City.
This featured video is designed for a personal introduction covering his background, why his practice focuses on procedural dentistry, and what he wants patients to understand before they visit.
A practice centered on procedural dentistry
Dr. Singh’s current work is concentrated in several procedure-focused areas. The summaries below explain how those areas fit his professional background, while the linked treatment pages provide the practical details patients need when considering care.
Tooth extractions and wisdom teeth
Tooth removal has been a major part of Dr. Singh’s clinical work for more than 25 years. His Yuba City practice sees routine and more difficult extraction cases, including wisdom teeth and patients referred by other dental professionals.
Dental implants and restorative pathways
Dr. Singh’s professional development has included continuing education related to implant dentistry and bone grafting. His current practice provides implant treatment ranging from individual implants to full-arch solutions and implant-supported removable dentures for appropriate patients.
Sedation training and professional involvement
Dr. Singh’s background includes formal training in IV/moderate sedation. Official Dental Board materials from 2025 identified him with a moderate-sedation permit, and the Board appointed him that year as an evaluator for its moderate-sedation onsite inspection and evaluation program.
Sedation is not appropriate for every patient. The practice evaluates suitability case by case based on the planned procedure, medical history and other clinical considerations.
Experience beyond the treatment room
Dr. Singh’s career has included both clinical practice and professional involvement outside his own office. He was a faculty member of the UCSF School of Dentistry, and in 2025 the Dental Board of California appointed him as an evaluator for its moderate-sedation onsite inspection and evaluation program.
These roles are part of his professional history; they do not change his current classification as a general dentist or imply a specialty credential in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
Clear information, thoughtful planning and respect for anxious patients
Many people who contact the practice are not simply looking for a routine dental visit. Some are in pain. Some have been told an extraction may be difficult. Some have avoided treatment because of fear, previous experiences or concern about getting numb. Others are trying to understand a major implant decision.
Dr. Singh’s approach is to evaluate the individual situation, explain what he sees, discuss realistic treatment options and determine whether the practice is the right setting for care. When sedation, medical clearance, 3D imaging or coordination with another healthcare professional is appropriate, those decisions are made according to the patient’s circumstances rather than treated as automatic steps.
- Explain the problem and treatment choices in understandable language.
- Take dental anxiety and previous difficult experiences seriously.
- Use imaging and sedation selectively when they are clinically appropriate.
- Maintain communication with referring dental professionals when coordination is needed.
- Provide postoperative support for patients treated by the practice.
