Comprehensive Tooth Extraction Services at Tenth Line Family Dentistry in Orléans

At Tenth Line Family Dentistry, we are dedicated to providing exceptional dental care services, including tooth extractions, in the vibrant community of Orléans. While our primary goal is always to preserve your natural teeth, there are instances when tooth extractions become necessary. Tooth extractions are performed by our experienced dental professionals to ensure your oral health and overall well-being.

Reasons for Tooth Extraction

Tooth extractions may be recommended for various reasons, including:

1. Large Carious Lesion (Cavity) and Extensive Tooth Structure Loss:
   When a tooth has significant decay and tooth structure loss that cannot be effectively repaired, extraction may be the best solution.
2. Fractured Teeth and Cracks in Teeth:
   Teeth with severe fractures or cracks that cannot be adequately restored may need to be extracted.
3. Advanced Gum Disease (Bone Loss):
   In cases where gum disease has led to significant bone loss and compromised tooth stability, extraction may be necessary to prevent further complications.
4. Infection and Failing Previous Endodontic Treatments:
   If a tooth has a persistent infection, and previous root canal treatments have a limited chance of success, extraction may be the preferred option.
5. Teeth That Block or Impede Orthodontic Treatment:
   In orthodontic cases, some teeth may need to be extracted to make room for the proper alignment of other teeth.
6. Retaining Baby Teeth:
   Sometimes, baby teeth don't naturally fall out, preventing the eruption of permanent teeth. In such cases, extraction might be required.

The Importance of Replacing Extracted Teeth

It's crucial to replace extracted teeth (excluding wisdom teeth) promptly to prevent potential oral health issues. When a gap is left by an extracted tooth, adjacent teeth can shift, causing bite problems and hygiene issues. Furthermore, exposed root surfaces can lead to increased sensitivity. To avoid these complications, it's essential to consider tooth replacement options.

Tooth Replacement Options

At Tenth Line Family Dentistry, our experienced dentists, Dr. Hasan Syed, will assess your unique situation and discuss the best tooth replacement options with you. These options may include:

• Dental Implants

Dental implants are a long-lasting and natural-looking solution to replace missing teeth.

• Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are used to fill the gap left by an extracted tooth by anchoring to adjacent teeth.

• Dentures

For those missing several teeth, dentures can provide an effective and affordable solution.

Please note that the ideal tooth replacement option varies from patient to patient, and our team will tailor recommendations to your specific needs.

We offer various sedation dentistry options, including IV, oral, and nitrous oxide, to help alleviate anxiety and ensure a painless experience.
