Quick And Easy Tooth Extraction At Yerra Family Dentistry
The Tooth Extraction Process
Expressions such as “like getting teeth pulled” show what society at large believes about the dental extraction process, but that unpleasant mental image is a very outdated one. A modern dental practice such as Yerra Family Dentistry has all the right tools to ensure that your extraction will be as comfortable as possible.
When Extraction Is The Best Option
A tooth may require extraction for a variety of reasons. If the tooth is impacted in the gumline (particularly common with wisdom teeth), if there are serious crowding issues, or if the tooth is too damaged, rotted, or loose to be saved with root canal treatment, Dr. Yerra may determine that extraction is the best option. After the recovery period is over, it will be time to begin taking the prosthodontic or orthodontic steps needed to fill in your smile.
