Extractions in Reidsville, North Carolina

At Caring Modern Dentistry, in times where dental issues become severe, we do all that we possibly can to help you keep your natural teeth. We offer restorative dental procedures such as fillings, dental crowns, and root canals to restore teeth that have minor decay that we will look into performing first to avoid full tooth removal.

In our office, we perform tooth extractions for many reasons including:

  • Severe decay
  • The tooth is weak
  • Wisdom teeth removal
  • Full smile restoration
  • Broken teeth

Although extractions are our last option to give you a healthy smile, each member of our team stays educated and trained on the procedure to perform it perfectly.

Extraction Process

Once our dental professional has diagnosed that extraction will be the best for your overall dental health or a new restoration, a personalized treatment plan will be developed. When you show up for your extraction procedure, we do our best to fully describe what we will be doing and what you can expect.

To numb the area surrounding the tooth to prevent pain, we use a single or multiple shots of a local anesthetic to prepare your mouth for the extraction. We also want to let our patients know that in cases of serious dental work being performed, as an extraction, we offer extra sedation methods to help relax you during the procedure.

Traditional extractions consist of the dentist loosening the grip the surrounding tissues have on the tooth and then using forceps to slowly and carefully remove the tooth. We need to take our time during extraction to avoid the tooth from breaking, which would cause further action.

After your tooth has been extracted, there will be sensitivity, pain, and discomfort once the anesthetic has worn off. We will provide you with post-extraction instructions on how to keep the site clean and what you can do to manage the pain.
