Comprehensive Dental Extractions in New York by Schoengold Dental
Our Comprehensive Approach to Dental Extractions
At Schoengold Dental, we approach every extraction with precision and care, ensuring that our patients understand each step of the process. Before deciding on an extraction, we exhaust all other treatment options and thoroughly discuss the potential benefits and implications with our patients. This process includes:
- Initial Consultation: A detailed discussion of the patient’s dental history and symptoms.
- Diagnostic Exams: Utilizing X-rays, CT scans, or digital imaging to assess the condition of the tooth and surrounding bone structure.
- Evaluation: Our experts analyze the diagnostic results to determine if extraction is the most effective treatment.
- Discussion: We ensure that our patients are fully informed about the procedure, recovery, and aftercare.
Types of Dental Extractions We Provide
We cater to various dental conditions through tailored extraction services:
- Simple Extractions: These are performed on teeth that are visible and easily accessible, typically under local anesthesia. The process involves loosening the tooth with specialized tools and carefully removing it.
- Surgical Extractions: Necessary for teeth that are not easily accessible, such as those that are broken at the gum line or impacted. This process might involve a small incision to expose the tooth for removal.
- Wisdom Teeth Removal: Often necessary for impacted or problematic wisdom teeth that could lead to pain, crowding, or misalignment. This might involve detailed imaging to plan the best approach for removal.
The Importance of Dental Extractions
Dental extractions are vital for various reasons and can significantly impact overall dental health:
- Pain Relief: Removing a severely decayed or infected tooth alleviates discomfort and enhances the quality of life.
- Infection Control: Extractions prevent the spread of infection, protecting surrounding teeth and gums and overall health.
- Orthodontic Benefits: In some cases, removing teeth can facilitate orthodontic treatments by providing the necessary space for teeth alignment.
- Preparation for Dental Implants: Extractions can also be the first step in the process of preparing for dental implants, ensuring a solid foundation for these permanent replacements.
Emergency Dental Services
