Safe and Gentle Tooth Extractions
While we always strive to save natural teeth whenever possible, there are times when extraction is the best option. At Tatum Point Dentistry, we provide safe and gentle tooth extractions when a tooth is too damaged, decayed, or infected to be restored.
Our team uses modern techniques and anesthesia options to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
We provide clear aftercare instructions and discuss replacement options such as implants or bridges to restore your smile.
Safe and Comfortable Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Wisdom teeth often cause problems when they don't have enough room to grow in properly. This can lead to pain, swelling, infection, and damage to surrounding teeth.
Depending on your case, wisdom teeth may need to be removed before they cause issues, especially if they are impacted or growing at an angle.
With sedation and anesthesia options, the procedure can be performed comfortably, and recovery is usually quick with proper aftercare.
What to Expect After Extraction
After a tooth extraction, some swelling and mild discomfort are normal. We'll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, including guidance on managing pain, avoiding certain foods, and keeping the extraction site clean.
Most patients recover within a few days and can return to normal activities relatively quickly. Following our aftercare recommendations helps ensure proper healing and prevents complications.
We schedule a follow-up visit to check your healing progress and discuss tooth replacement options if needed.
Tooth Replacement Options
After an extraction, replacing the missing tooth is important for maintaining your oral health and preventing neighboring teeth from shifting. At Tatum Point Dentistry, we offer several replacement options.
Dental implants provide a permanent, natural-feeling solution. Dental bridges anchor to adjacent teeth for a fixed restoration. Partial dentures offer an affordable, removable option.
We'll discuss the best option for your situation during your consultation.
