Safe and Comfortable Dental Extractions in Houston, TX

 

Common Reasons for Extractions

• Severe Tooth Decay: When a tooth is too damaged by decay to be restored, extraction may be necessary.

    
• Gum Disease: Advanced gum disease can loosen teeth, sometimes requiring extraction to preserve oral health.

    
• Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth often need to be removed to prevent pain, infection, and other issues.

    
• Crowding: In some cases, teeth may need to be extracted to make room for orthodontic treatment.

  

The Extraction Procedure

Consultation and Evaluation

During your initial consultation, our dentist will evaluate your dental health and discuss the need for extraction. We use digital X-rays to assess the condition of your teeth and plan the procedure.

Preparation and Anesthesia

Before the extraction, we ensure you are comfortable by administering local anesthesia to numb the area. For more complex cases or anxious patients, sedation options are available to ensure a relaxed experience.

Tooth Removal

Our skilled dentist carefully removes the tooth, taking care to minimize discomfort and ensure a smooth extraction process. For surgical extractions, small incisions may be made to access the tooth.

Post-Extraction Care

After the extraction, we provide detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and prevent complications. Follow-up appointments may be scheduled to monitor your recovery.

Enhancing Comfort
