Dental Extractions
Removal of Severely Decayed or Damaged Teeth
Dental extractions, also known as tooth removal, are necessary when a tooth is severely decayed, damaged beyond repair, or causing significant oral health problems. At Grace Dental Clinic, we understand that dental extractions can be a daunting prospect, but our skilled team is dedicated to providing safe and comfortable extractions to improve your oral health.
Severely decayed or damaged teeth that cannot be restored through other dental treatments, such as fillings or root canals, may require extraction.
Surgical Extractions for Impacted Teeth
In some cases, teeth may become impacted, meaning they are unable to fully erupt or properly align with the adjacent teeth. Impacted teeth commonly occur with wisdom teeth, but can also affect other teeth in the mouth. Impacted teeth can lead to pain, infection, crowding, and other dental issues.
Surgical extractions are often required for impacted teeth. This involves creating a small incision in the gum tissue to access the impacted tooth, removing any bone that may be obstructing its path, and carefully extracting the tooth.
Post-Extraction Care and Options for Tooth Replacement
After a dental extraction, proper post-operative care is essential to promote healing and prevent complications. Our team at Grace Dental Clinic will provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for the extraction site, including guidelines on oral hygiene, pain management, and dietary restrictions.
Following a tooth extraction, it may be necessary to consider options for tooth replacement. Leaving a gap in your smile can lead to shifting of surrounding teeth, bite problems, and potential bone loss.
