Tooth Extractions
Tooth extraction can sometimes be the best solution for maintaining your oral health. Moon Valley Dental is committed to providing a comfortable and stress-free extraction experience, whether due to severe decay, injury, or other dental issues.
Reasons for Tooth Extraction
There are several situations where tooth extraction may be necessary:
Evaluating Your Needs
Before proceeding with an extraction, our dentists thoroughly assess all possible treatment options. We aim to preserve natural teeth whenever feasible, utilizing treatments like root canals or other restorative methods.
However, if extraction is unavoidable, we discuss replacement options, such as dental implants. We can often perform preparatory procedures for implants during the same visit.
Extraction Procedures at Moon Valley Dental
We offer tooth extraction procedures under local anesthesia. This common method numbs the area and allows you to remain awake without pain. Our dentists use precise techniques during the extraction to ensure a smooth process, which may involve sectioning the tooth for easier removal.
For more complex cases, or if you prefer, we can provide IV anesthesia administered by an oral surgeon. This option is ideal for patients who may feel anxious about the procedure, as it induces a sleep-like state, ensuring a comfortable experience.
Post-Extraction Care and Support
Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and prevent complications after the extraction. We are committed to supporting you through the recovery process and are available to answer any questions or concerns you may have post-procedure.
