Tooth Extractions Riverdale

Protecting Your Oral Health by Removing Potentially Harmful Teeth

You should know that it is never our desire to remove a patient’s natural teeth. We only recommend tooth extractions when all other options are unsuccessful. While restorative dentistry can address most cases of serious dental decay and facial trauma, the most severe instances can often only be treated with the removal of one or more teeth. Should this be the proposed plan for your smile, do not panic. We will be here to ensure your safety while also making sure you are fully relaxed throughout your procedure. Call us today to find out more about tooth extractions.

Why You Might Need a Tooth Extraction

Tooth extraction may be the recommended course of action if:

• You have a tooth that is badly damaged and cannot be treated with a dental crown or root canal.
• You need additional space to ensure successful orthodontic treatment.
• Your child’s adult tooth is trying to erupt but cannot because of an existing baby tooth.
• You are suffering from advanced gum disease that is causing one or more loose teeth due to bone loss.
• You sustain a serious facial injury that requires the removal of the tooth, as it cannot be saved.
