Reasons for Extracting a Tooth

Tooth extraction can be necessary for several reasons. Wisdom teeth, often impacted, can cause severe pain and misalignment of other teeth. At Team Smile, our oral surgeons perform surgical extractions with precision to alleviate these issues. Sometimes, a tooth extraction is essential due to gum disease that has damaged the tooth root and surrounding gum tissue.

In other cases, permanent teeth may need removal to prepare for orthodontic treatment or to address crowded teeth. Our skilled oral surgeons manage the extraction site carefully, ensuring proper clot formation and minimizing complications. By using local anesthetic and sometimes general anesthesia, we make the process as comfortable as possible.

When an extraction is unavoidable, such as with an impacted tooth or severely decayed tooth, our team ensures a smooth procedure. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing, reduce bleeding, and manage dental pain effectively. Understanding the complexities of tooth extraction, we prioritize your oral health and comfort throughout the process.

What is the process of tooth extraction?

First, an x-ray will be taken to assess the tooth including the position of the roots and the condition of the surrounding bone. Our team will also conduct a thorough medical history to ensure that it is safe to proceed. Usually, a tooth extraction is performed under local anesthesia, but other sedatives can also be administered when necessary. We are committed to ensuring that you are comfortable and pain-free throughout the entire procedure. Once you are comfortable and frozen, our dentist will carefully remove your tooth while preserving the bone that surrounds it.

If an extraction is required, Team Smile Dentistry offers a number of tooth replacement options, including implants and bridges, that can restore your teeth with results that both look and feel natural. Whatever the reason for a tooth extraction, Team Smile Dentistry is here for you!
