After a tooth extraction, the surrounding teeth may shift, causing misalignment? To prevent this, we may recommend a dental implant or a bridge to fill the gap and maintain proper alignment.

The Benefits of Tooth Extraction

RELIEVE PAIN AND DISCOMFORT

Tooth extraction can provide immediate relief from pain and discomfort caused by a damaged or infected tooth. This can improve your quality of life and allow you to eat, drink, and speak comfortably again.

PREVENT INFECTION AND DISEASE

Tooth extraction can prevent the spread of infection and disease to other teeth and parts of the body. This is especially important if you have a tooth that is severely decayed or infected.

By removing the tooth, we can prevent further damage, promote healing, and save you from needing more extensive and expensive dental treatments in the future.

IMPROVE ORAL HEALTH

Tooth extraction can improve your oral health by eliminating the source of the problem and allowing for proper healing and restoration.

It can also prevent overcrowding and improve the alignment of your teeth, which can have long-term benefits for your overall wellbeing.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you are experiencing severe tooth pain, swelling, or discomfort, it's important to schedule a dental appointment. Our experienced team can evaluate the problem and determine if a tooth extraction is necessary.

A dry socket is a common dental condition that occurs when the underlying bone structure, which holds the healing tooth in place, becomes exposed after the loss of a tooth. It typically happens when the clot that naturally forms over an extraction site gets dislodged too soon.

Symptoms can range from mild to severe pain, along with bad breath and a shooting sensation that radiates deep into the jaw area while eating or drinking.

Thankfully, dry socket can be treated relatively easily with pain management as well as topical ointments used to cover and protect the exposed bone.
