What Is Tooth Extraction?
Comfortable Tooth Extraction in Morrisville | Lumina Dentistry
Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. While extractions are generally a last resort, they may be necessary due to:
- Severe decay
- Infection
- Overcrowding
In some cases, wisdom teeth or problematic teeth that are unable to properly emerge through the gums may need to be extracted. Our dentist uses the latest techniques to ensure the extraction process is as comfortable and efficient as possible.
Depending on the complexity of the extraction, it may be done in one visit, and in some cases, a follow-up appointment may be required for healing and to monitor progress. After the extraction, our dentist will provide instructions on how to care for the area and promote healing to prevent complications.
Tooth extractions can alleviate pain, prevent further damage to surrounding teeth, and pave the way for restorative procedures such as dental implants or bridges, ensuring your long-term oral health.
