At Harlem Family Dental, we perform tooth extractions with the utmost care and precision. Our experienced team ensures that the process is as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
Why Tooth Extractions Are Necessary
Severe Decay; When a tooth is too damaged by decay to be repaired with a filling or crown, extraction may be necessary.
Impacted Teeth: Teeth that are stuck in the gums, such as wisdom teeth, often need to be extracted to prevent pain and other complications.
Overcrowding: Sometimes teeth need to be removed to make room for orthodontic treatments or to alleviate overcrowding in the mouth.
Gum Disease: Severe gum disease can cause teeth to become loose and may necessitate extraction.
The Extraction Procedure
Consultation and Examination: Your dentist will examine your tooth and take X-rays to determine the best course of action.
Local Anesthesia: To ensure your comfort, the area around the tooth will be numbed with local anesthesia.
Tooth Removal: The tooth is carefully removed. For a simple extraction, the tooth is loosened and gently pulled out. For a surgical extraction, an incision is made to remove the tooth.
Post-Extraction Care: After the extraction, you will receive instructions on how to care for the extraction site to ensure proper healing and avoid complications.
