When it comes to tooth extraction, the method used depends on the complexity of the case. At Parkway Dental Care, we specialize in both simple and surgical extractions, ensuring effective solutions for a variety of dental concerns.
A simple extraction is performed when the tooth is fully visible above the gumline and can be removed in one piece. During this straightforward procedure, we use a local anesthetic to numb the surrounding area, ensuring you experience minimal discomfort. The dentist then carefully loosens the tooth using specialized tools such as elevators and forceps, allowing for its safe and gentle removal.
More complex situations, such as impacted or broken teeth below the gumline, may require a surgical extraction. For these cases, we combine local anesthesia with intravenous sedation to help you remain relaxed and comfortable throughout the procedure. In some instances, general anesthesia may be recommended based on your medical history or the complexity of the extraction.
During a surgical extraction, the dentist or oral surgeon makes a small incision in the gum tissue to access the affected tooth. If necessary, a portion of the surrounding bone may be removed, or the tooth may be sectioned into smaller pieces to ensure its safe removal.
A tooth severely damaged by decay can become a source of infection, jeopardizing the health of surrounding tissues and intensifying discomfort. Don’t allow a problematic tooth to compromise your oral health. Our expert tooth extraction services provide a reliable solution, alleviating pain while preventing further infection. This essential procedure safeguards your overall dental health and restores comfort.
The cost of a tooth extraction depends on several factors, such as the complexity of the procedure and the tooth's condition.
