PROTECT YOUR SMILE
At Dental Excellence in Tucson, we understand that tooth extraction can be daunting for many patients. However, removal is sometimes necessary to improve or protect oral health and prevent further damage.
Why are tooth extractions sometimes needed?
When a tooth is severely damaged or infected and cannot be restored through other means, such as fillings or root canals, extraction is often the best option for protecting a patient’s oral health. Teeth that are crowded, impacted, or causing misalignment of surrounding teeth may also require removal as it can help prevent further damage and improve a patient’s oral health.
How safe are tooth extractions?
Our experienced team takes safety very seriously and always prioritizes our patients’ comfort and well-being during every treatment and procedure we perform. You can trust that when you need one or more teeth extracted, we’ll ensure the experience is as efficient, safe, and expedient as possible.
After the extraction, patients may experience some discomfort or swelling, but our dental team provides thorough aftercare instructions and can prescribe pain relief medication as needed. Additionally, we can provide options for replacing the extracted tooth, such as dental implants, dentures, or bridges, to restore full function and rejuvenate your smile aesthetic.
