If you or a loved one has a tooth that is extremely damaged due to an accident or decay and cannot be repaired with a filling or a crown, a tooth extraction may be your best choice.
Tooth Extraction is the most recognized form of oral surgery. There are numerous reasons why an extraction may be necessary, including:
- Orthodontic treatment plans, some of which may require the extraction of some teeth in an effort to achieve optimum results by reducing crowding.
- The delayed eruption of permanent teeth, caused by primary teeth that have failed to fall out.
- Teeth damaged by tooth decay, root fracture, gum disease or trauma which are beyond repair.
- Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth.
After a tooth extraction, it is necessary to take care of the area around the socket in order to protect the gum line and improve your comfort as the socket heals. We often ask patients to avoid brushing their teeth for at least a day after an extraction, even with an extra-soft toothbrush. Any activity that creates added pressure in your mouth, such as using a straw or smoking cigarettes, should also be avoided for some time following the tooth extraction. Similar to hard foods, these situations can destroy the blood clots and lead to a dry socket.
The aim of oral surgery at our practice is to optimize the health and function of your teeth. Our oral surgeon and our highly trained dental team are dedicated to ensuring that you have the best dental Specialist in the most comfortable setting. Through the use of advanced and appropriate dental technology, we guarantee the highest level of dental treatment and diagnostics, to produce the finest, most stable results. We encourage you to come in to our office to find out how we can help you achieve the healthy, beautiful smile you deserve.
