Tooth extractions are essential for maintaining oral health by removing problematic teeth. Whether it’s advanced gum disease or impacted wisdom teeth, Melissa Dental Studio provides safe and comfortable extractions right in our office, ensuring your convenience and comfort.
Why Are Tooth Extractions Needed?
There are various scenarios where tooth extractions become necessary. It could be due to advanced gum disease, loose or severely decayed teeth, cracked or broken teeth below the gum line, stubborn baby teeth, or simply to avoid having additional treatment done.
Who Needs Tooth Extractions?
Through an examination, we determine whether tooth extraction is the best course of action for you. Leaving a problematic tooth untreated can lead to complications such as infections or abscesses, so it’s crucial to address the issue promptly. X-rays may be taken to thoroughly assess the situation and determine the need for extraction.
What to Expect During Extraction?
Before the procedure, we discuss anesthesia options to ensure your comfort. Once you’re comfortable, we gently loosen and remove the tooth. Sutures may be placed if needed, followed by biting down on gauze to control bleeding. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided and must be followed.
