At Denver Restorative Dentistry, we understand that maintaining optimal oral health sometimes necessitates the removal of a tooth. Tooth extractions, whether simple or surgical, are performed by our skilled prosthodontists, Drs. Goggins, Aguirre, Chertok, Chae and Retana, to ensure the highest level of care and comfort for our patients.

Reasons for Tooth Extractions

There are several reasons why a tooth extraction might be necessary, ranging from severe decay to impacted teeth. Our team carefully evaluates each situation to determine the best course of action. Extractions are often recommended for:

  • Severely decayed teeth that cannot be restored
  • Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain or crowding
  • Teeth damaged beyond repair due to trauma
  • Preparing the mouth for orthodontic treatment
  • Removing teeth that are sources of infection or contribute to periodontal disease

Our Extraction Process

We prioritize patient comfort and use the latest techniques to ensure a smooth and pain-free extraction process. During your visit, our prosthodontists will conduct a thorough examination and take necessary X-rays to assess the condition of the tooth and surrounding bone structure. Based on this evaluation, we will develop a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs.

Local anesthesia is administered to numb the extraction site, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout the procedure. For more complex cases, such as impacted wisdom teeth, a surgical approach may be required. In these instances, we make small incisions to access and remove the tooth efficiently.

Post-Extraction Care and Recovery

After the extraction, proper aftercare is crucial for a swift recovery. We provide detailed post-operative instructions to help you manage discomfort and promote healing. It is common to experience some swelling and minor bleeding, which can be managed with prescribed pain relievers and cold compresses.

We also recommend avoiding strenuous activities, maintaining a soft diet, and refraining from smoking. These guidelines help prevent complications and ensure a smooth healing process. Our team is always available to address any concerns or questions you may have during your recovery.
