Tooth Replacement Options for a Complete Smile
Comprehensive Assessment Before Tooth Extraction
Before proceeding with a tooth extraction, our dentists will carefully assess your situation to determine whether extraction is truly necessary. Our dentist will thoroughly assess your situation and consider any relevant health conditions and medications you may be taking. This comprehensive approach ensures your safety and helps us determine whether extraction is necessary or if other options are more suitable. During your consultation, the dentist will explain the best course of action, answer any concerns, and provide you with all available options.
​
If you have any questions or are unsure if an extraction is needed, we encourage you to book an appointment to consult with our expert team. We're here to help you make the most informed decision for your oral health.
Comfort-Focused Tooth Extraction Procedures
During the extraction, our dentists ensure you are comfortable and fully numb. We’ll guide you through the process, answering any questions and making sure your experience is as stress-free as possible.
When Tooth Extraction is Necessary for Your Oral Health
At Whitehorse Smile Care, our priority is to preserve your natural teeth. However, in certain cases, tooth extraction becomes the best option for your oral health. This can include situations such as:
-
Severe tooth decay that cannot be treated with a root canal
-
Advanced gum disease compromising the tooth's stability
-
Impacted wisdom teeth
-
Preparing for orthodontic treatment or other dental procedures
​
Our skilled dentists will guide you through the process and discuss any alternative treatments whenever possible to ensure the best outcome for your long-term dental health.
The Wisdom Teeth Extraction Process
At Whitehorse Smile Care, your comfort is our priority. We begin by applying anesthetics to thoroughly numb the area. The dentist then applies gentle pressure until the tooth loosens and is removed. Stitches may be used for closure, promoting faster healing.
​​
Depending on the complexity of your case, the extraction may be surgical or non-surgical:
-
Non-Surgical Extractions: This approach is generally straightforward and involves removing teeth that have fully erupted or are easily accessible.
-
Surgical Extractions: This may be necessary for more complicated cases that make removal more challenging. Surgical extractions may involve incisions in the gum tissue and require a more extended recovery time.
We encourage open communication to develop a tailored plan that meets your needs.
Post-Extraction Care and Follow-Up
After the procedure, we’ll provide clear aftercare instructions and stay in touch to monitor your healing. Our priority is to support you through every stage of recovery, ensuring a smooth process.
