Much like the name suggests, tooth extractions are the removal of teeth. Our skilled orthodontist will only suggest removal if your teeth cannot be repaired with traditional dental restorations, such as dental fillings, dental inlays or onlays, or dental crowns.
The most common reasons for tooth extractions are:
- Infection
- Tooth decay
- Crowding
If it is determined that a tooth must be removed, our orthodontist will carefully extract the problem tooth and take every precaution to help your experience be as comfortable as possible. During a personalized consultation before the procedure is scheduled, we will also discuss replacement options with you, which will help you choose the correct treatment to restore the function, health and beauty of your smile. After your tooth is extracted, our orthodontist and team will provide you with a list of instructions on how to keep your mouth healthy as you heal.
If you have any questions, we invite you to contact our dental office today and schedule an appointment with our orthodontist. We are committed to providing you with the best possible experience, and we work hard to ensure you get the care you need. Learn more about tooth extractions from our skilled team today!
