Why Are Tooth Extractions Necessary?
Tooth extractions are performed when a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be repaired or when it poses a threat to your overall oral health. Some common reasons for tooth extractions include:
- Severe decay or infection: When a tooth is extensively decayed or infected and cannot be saved with a root canal or filling, extraction may be the best option to prevent the infection from spreading.
- Impacted wisdom teeth: Wisdom teeth that are trapped beneath the gums or growing in at an angle can cause pain, swelling, and infection. In these cases, extraction is often necessary to protect your oral health.
- Crowded teeth: In some cases, teeth may need to be extracted to make room for orthodontic treatment or to alleviate overcrowding.
- Trauma or damage: Teeth that have been severely damaged due to injury or trauma may need to be removed if they cannot be repaired.
No matter the reason, our team at All On Smile will ensure your extraction is performed with care and precision, minimizing discomfort and promoting quick healing.
Types of Tooth Extractions at All On Smile
There are two main types of tooth extractions: simple extractions and surgical extractions. The type of extraction required depends on the condition and location of the tooth.
Simple Extractions
A simple extraction is performed when a tooth is fully visible above the gumline and can be removed easily. This is a straightforward procedure that typically requires only local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth. Simple extractions are commonly performed for teeth that are decayed, damaged, or causing overcrowding.
Surgical Extractions
A surgical extraction is more complex and is performed when a tooth is impacted, broken at the gumline, or requires removal of surrounding bone tissue. Surgical extractions are often needed for wisdom teeth or teeth that have not fully erupted.
Dr. Bagheri’s expertise in oral surgery ensures that even the most challenging extractions are handled with precision and care. With his guidance, All On Smile is proud to offer comprehensive surgical care, providing patients with a safe and comfortable experience.
What to Expect During a Tooth Extraction
At All On Smile, your comfort is our top priority. We strive to make the tooth extraction process as smooth and pain-free as possible. Here’s what you can expect during your extraction procedure:
1. Consultation and Examination
Before the extraction, we’ll conduct a thorough examination and take digital X-rays to assess the condition of the tooth and surrounding structures. We’ll also review your medical history and discuss any concerns or questions you may have.
2. Anesthesia
To ensure your comfort during the procedure, we’ll administer local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth. If you’re feeling anxious or nervous about the extraction, we offer sedation options to help you relax and stay comfortable throughout the procedure.
3. The Extraction Procedure
- For simple extractions, we’ll use specialized tools to gently loosen the tooth and remove it from the socket.
- For surgical extractions, especially in the case of impacted teeth, Dr. Bagheri may need to make an incision in the gum and remove some bone tissue before extracting the tooth. Once the tooth is removed, the area will be carefully cleaned and stitched as needed.
4. Post-Extraction Care
After the extraction, we’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing. This includes guidance on managing discomfort, controlling swelling, and preventing infection. You may need to avoid certain foods and activities for a few days while your mouth heals.
Wisdom Teeth Extractions
One of the most common types of tooth extractions we perform at All On Smile is wisdom teeth removal. Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars that usually emerge in the late teens or early twenties. Unfortunately, wisdom teeth often become impacted or misaligned, causing pain, infection, or damage to surrounding teeth.
With the expertise of oral surgeon Dr. Bagheri, our team can handle even the most complex wisdom tooth extractions. Whether your wisdom teeth are fully or partially impacted, Dr. Bagheri’s extensive experience in oral surgery ensures a safe and successful procedure.
