Tooth Extractions
We’ll Help Gently Restore Your Oral Health
Find Relief from Tooth Pain
Are you experiencing persistent tooth pain, discomfort, or have you been told you need a tooth removed? While the idea of a tooth extraction can be daunting, we’re dedicated to making the process as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
When & Why They’re Needed
- If your tooth is so extensively decayed that it can’t be restored with a filling, crown, or root canal.
- If you have gum disease that has loosened your tooth or damaged the surrounding bone.
- If your wisdom teeth have become impacted.
- If you need to create space for proper alignment for an upcoming orthodontic treatment.
The Extraction Process
We’ll start with a thorough examination of your tooth and the surrounding area. This will include a detailed X-rays to help us accurately assess your condition. If an extraction is indeed necessary, we’ll discuss the procedure in-depth to help you understand the process and your options. For your actually extraction, we’re also able to administer a local anesthetic to numb the area and give you a pain-free extraction.
After your tooth is removed, we’ll give you with detailed instructions on how to care for after care, which includes how to manage post-procedure discomfort, how to prevent infection, and what to do to support your healing. We’ll also walk you through potential replacement options, such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures, to help you maintain your bite, and the aesthetics of your smile.
