At Hallam Family Dentistry, we believe in preserving natural teeth whenever possible. However, there are instances when tooth extraction is recommended to prevent further infection, bone loss, avoid teeth crookedness and pain. We understand that having a tooth removed can be a daunting prospect, which is why we strive to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
There are several reasons why tooth extraction may be recommended, such as:
Our experienced dental team will explain the extraction process and determine if it is a simple extraction or if further work is required for a surgical extraction. We aim to make the procedure as comfortable as possible for you and provide post-operative care instructions to aid in the healing process.
At Hallam Family Dentistry, we understand the impact that losing a tooth can have on your oral health and overall quality of life. Our team will work with you to explore replacement options to restore the function and appearance of your smile.
Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars that usually emerge in the late teenage years or early twenties. While they can be beneficial, in some cases, they may cause complications such as pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. Our dental team will evaluate the position and condition of your wisdom teeth to determine if removal is necessary.
If wisdom teeth are recommended for extraction, our team will explain the procedure and what to expect during and after the surgery. We use the latest techniques and technology to make the process as comfortable as possible and provide post-operative care instructions to aid in the healing process.
