Tooth Extractions
Our goal is to help our patients keep as many of their natural teeth as possible, for as long as possible. Sometimes, in a cruel twist of fate, a tooth extraction is needed in order to save other teeth. But whenever a tooth can be saved, we’ll do everything in our power to do so. But, when a tooth extraction in Corvallis, OR is needed for any reason, you can trust us to do it in a safe manner, with as little discomfort to you as possible.
When Is a Tooth Extraction Needed?
- Severe Decay or Infection – When a tooth is too damaged to be saved, extraction can prevent the spread of infection.
- Impacted Wisdom Teeth – Wisdom teeth that don’t have enough space to emerge properly may cause pain or alignment issues.
- Overcrowding – In some cases, extractions help create space for orthodontic treatment.
- Broken or Fractured Teeth – If a tooth is damaged beyond repair, removal may be necessary.
Comfortable and Safe Procedure
We use modern techniques and local anesthesia to ensure a comfortable extraction process. For complex cases, we also offer sedation options to help ease anxiety.
If a tooth needs to be extracted, we can discuss replacement options such as dental implants, bridges or dentures to restore function and appearance. Contact your Corvallis, OR dentist today to schedule a consultation.
