A dental tooth extraction is a procedure performed by our dentists in Wauwatosa, WI to remove a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. Extracting a tooth is not always the first choice but in some cases it is the best option for your overall oral health.
Dental tooth extractions are commonly performed procedures aimed at pain relief and preventing infection. Your dentist at Innovation Dental will ensure that you are comfortable throughout the procedure and provide personalized care based on your specific dental needs.
This can be done if a tooth is severely decayed or is loose due to gum disease. We often recommend that impacted wisdom teeth be removed because they could pose a threat to your oral health at some point in the future. In some cases, baby teeth will need to be extracted if they’re having a hard time falling out on their own.
There are many reasons for why you may need to have one or more of your teeth removed. Before the surgery, we will perform an examination as well as a full consultation with you to determine if this procedure is the best choice for you.
Some common reasons for needing a tooth extraction include:
Extractions are considered oral surgery, but they are simply and quickly done in-office. Impacted teeth may require additional surgery as compared to a fully exposed tooth, but the process of removing the tooth is relatively similar.
You will come into our office for a consult and exam with our doctors prior to any surgery. We will discuss sedation and anesthetic options with you before the procedure is performed.
