Tooth Extractions
While our dentist and team strive to preserve your natural teeth, there are instances when extracting a tooth is the most beneficial option for your oral health. You might need a tooth extraction if:
- Your tooth is extensively decayed and beyond repair.
- Your tooth has a severe infection, damaging the tooth and its supporting bone structure.
- Your teeth are overcrowded, and an extraction is necessary to ensure proper alignment.
When you visit our office for a tooth extraction, our dentist will perform the procedure as gently as possible. We prioritize your comfort and aim to make your treatment as pain-free and easy as possible. After the extraction, we will provide you with detailed post-op care instructions to ensure proper healing. Once you have recovered, our dentist will discuss potential tooth replacement options with you. Common replacements include bridges, implants and dentures, each designed to restore your smile and oral function effectively.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth removal is another common procedure recommended by our dentist. These third molars often fail to erupt properly due to insufficient space in the mouth. As the last teeth to emerge, wisdom teeth can become impacted or grow at incorrect angles, leading to issues such as infection, tooth damage and misalignment. Our dentist will evaluate your wisdom teeth to determine if removal is necessary. If so, we will ensure the extraction is as gentle as possible. As with regular extractions, we provide comprehensive post-op instructions to support your healing process.
