What Are Tooth Extractions?
A tooth extraction is a dental procedure where a tooth is removed from its socket in the jawbone. While preserving your natural teeth is always our primary goal, there are cases where extractions are necessary to protect your overall oral health. Common reasons for tooth extractions include:
- Severe decay or damage that cannot be repaired.
- Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain or infections.
- Overcrowding, especially before orthodontic treatment.
- Advanced gum disease resulting in loose teeth.
Dr. Jeanette Linskey-Sanders carefully evaluates every case to determine if an extraction is the best solution for your dental needs.
The Tooth Extraction Procedure
At Experience Dentistry, we use advanced techniques and prioritize your comfort to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience. Here’s what you can expect:
- Evaluation and Consultation: During your visit, Dr. Linskey-Sanders will examine the affected tooth using X-rays to understand its condition and surrounding bone structure. We’ll then discuss your options and address any concerns.
- Local Anesthesia: Before beginning the procedure, we’ll administer a local anesthetic to ensure the area is numb and you don’t feel any discomfort.
- Tooth Removal: Depending on the complexity of the case, the tooth will be gently loosened and removed. For surgical extractions, such as impacted teeth, a small incision may be made to access and remove the tooth.
- Aftercare Guidance: Post-procedure, we’ll provide detailed instructions on how to care for the extraction site, including managing discomfort, maintaining oral hygiene, and ensuring proper healing.
