Tooth extraction is the process of removing a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. It’s typically required when a tooth is too damaged to be saved, whether due to severe decay, gum disease, or trauma. Extractions can also be necessary for orthodontic reasons, such as to alleviate overcrowding in the mouth.
Our tooth extraction service at Ridgeland Dental includes:
Thorough Evaluation: We conduct a detailed examination, including X-rays, to determine the best approach for the extraction and to plan for any potential complexities.
Pain Management and Comfort: We prioritize your comfort and use effective anesthesia to ensure a pain-free experience. Our team also provides clear instructions on managing discomfort post-extraction.
Minimally Invasive Techniques: Our dentists employ the latest techniques to perform extractions with minimal invasiveness, promoting quicker healing and reducing recovery time.
Post-Extraction Care and Guidance: After the extraction, we offer advice on caring for the extraction site and maintaining oral hygiene to prevent complications and promote healing. We also discuss replacement options, such as dental implants or bridges, if necessary.
At Ridgeland Dental, we understand that root canals and tooth extractions can be significant procedures for our patients. We are committed to providing empathetic, expert care, ensuring the best outcomes and supporting our patients through every step of their dental health journey.
