Our experienced and compassionate team is here to ensure that you receive the best possible care during and after your tooth extraction.

Why Would I Need a Tooth Extraction?

There are several reasons why you may need a tooth extraction, including:

1. Severe decay or damage: If your tooth is severely decayed or damaged, it may not be possible to restore it with a filling, crown, or other treatments.
2. Impacted wisdom teeth: If your wisdom teeth are impacted or growing in at an angle, they can cause pain, infection, and other oral health problems.
3. Orthodontic treatment: In some cases, orthodontic treatment may require the removal of one or more teeth to create enough space for proper alignment.
4. Infection or abscess: If you have a severe infection or abscess that cannot be treated with antibiotics or a root canal, extraction may be necessary to prevent the infection from spreading.

What Happens During a Tooth Extraction?

Tooth extraction is a relatively simple procedure that typically involves the following steps:

1. Examination: Our dentist will examine your tooth and take X-rays to determine the best approach for the extraction.
2. Anesthesia: We will numb the area around your tooth to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
3. Extraction: Our dentist will gently loosen the tooth from the socket and remove it.
4. Post-operative care: We will provide you with instructions for aftercare, including pain management and oral hygiene.

Does Tooth Extraction Hurt?

With the use of local anesthesia, tooth extraction is generally a painless procedure. You may experience some discomfort or swelling after the procedure, but this can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses.
