Tooth extraction is the process of
removal of the tooth from the supporting structures in the mouth. A
tooth may be extracted if it is extremely crooked, decayed or broken
down. The extraction process often scares people, but it is often
simple and not costly.
At Petra Dental Group, we are well
versed in performing oral surgeries using modern dentistry
techniques. Our primary aim is to prevent tooth decay, cavities and
provide you with a healthy smile at an affordable cost.
Why tooth extraction is recommended?
Dentists at Petra Dental Group carefully
understand the condition of your teeth and provide you with the best
dental solutions to prevent toothache, decay and tooth extraction.
When decay badly demolishes the tooth structure, and restoration
treatments like fillings and crowns fail to restore deep cavities
and damaged teeth, then it may be advisable to have the tooth
extracted.
Plaque formation, bacteria and
composition of bad food particles in mouth may form non-repairable
cavities that worsen the situation. Depending upon the condition of
the mouth, our dentist may suggest extraction of several or all
teeth and recommend dentures, bridges or implants in mouth.
Wisdom teeth and Impacted wisdom tooth
extraction
Your mouth may also suffer from partial
eruption of wisdom teeth or complete impaction of the wisdom teeth.
This usually happens due to the lack of space in the mouth or the
teeth not in an upright position. Impacted teeth fail to emerge at
the exact position and become trapped in the jawbone and gums. This
can lead to unexpected pain and may result in infections.
How we examine your dental health?
At Petra Dental clinic, we review your
dental history and take X-rays to cautiously observe the condition
of impacted wisdom teeth. After a thorough examination, if wisdom
teeth are not found to be functional, our dentists may suggest early
extraction to avoid further problems. Our experienced dentist
extracts impacted teeth fused to bone with special care.
Extraction procedures may create minor
pain, swelling and bleeding. After surgery we may give antibiotic
treatment to control infection, swelling and discomfort. We also
provide you instructions and tips to take care of yourself at home.
Numerous reasons
lead to removal of teeth:
Ø
To help teeth grow at normal position and allow
eruption of other upcoming teeth
Ø
To make space in mouth and straighten crowding by
implementing orthodontic treatment
Ø
To stop the gum disease, tooth decay and
infection that harshly affects teeth structure and bone
Ø
To control swelling, bleeding and infection due to
partial eruption of wisdom teeth
Ø
To prevent formation of cyst and tumor in mouth
Ø
To prevent movement in front teeth due to impacted
wisdom tooth
Types of tooth extraction
Extraction is performed in two ways according to the condition of
teeth.
Simple tooth extraction:
In this process teeth can be easily accessed using local anesthesia.
We use elevators and forceps to grab the visible portion of teeth
and move it further to expand the hole, where a tooth is lodged.
Once the hole gets widened adequately, we pull out teeth easily.
Surgical tooth extraction
Surgical removal of teeth is bit complex. Teeth which have broken
down underneath gum line and partially erupted cannot be seen and
take out properly. After adequate local anesthesia, the soft tissues
and bone are cut to reach the teeth. A special drill is used to
remove the adjacent bone tissues. To make the removal process
easier, the tooth may need to be split into pieces.
Alternatives to tooth extraction
While examining the condition of the tooth in question, our dentists
may suggest alternative treatments. The tooth may be able to be
saved with a simple restoration or may need to have a
root canal
treatment and crown. Although teeth extraction is immediately cost
effective, we encourage treatment that will save your natural tooth.
