Tooth Extractions in Gahanna, Ohio

While preserving your natural teeth is always our goal, there are times when a tooth extraction is necessary for your oral health. At Beecher Crossing Dental in Gahanna, Ohio, we perform safe and comfortable tooth extractions when needed, using the latest techniques to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience.

When Is a Tooth Extraction Necessary?

Tooth extractions may be necessary for a variety of reasons, including:

• Severe Decay or Damage: When a tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a filling, crown, or other treatment.
• Infection: If an infection has reached the pulp of the tooth and cannot be treated with root canal therapy.
• Crowding: Sometimes teeth need to be removed to prepare the mouth for orthodontic treatment or to relieve overcrowding.
• Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Wisdom teeth that do not have enough room to emerge properly may need to be extracted to prevent pain, infection, or damage to other teeth.

Our Tooth Extraction Process

1. Consultation and Assessment: We will thoroughly evaluate your condition and discuss the reasons for the extraction, ensuring that it is the best course of action for your oral health.
2. Preparation and Anesthesia: To ensure your comfort, we will administer local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth. We also offer sedation options for patients who may feel anxious about the procedure.
3. Extraction Procedure: The tooth will be carefully removed using the appropriate technique, minimizing discomfort and protecting the surrounding tissues.
4. Post-Extraction Care: After the extraction, we will provide you with detailed care instructions to promote healing and prevent complications. We will also discuss tooth replacement options if necessary.
