Tooth Removal Services In Farmington, NM, and Rio Rancho
At Sundance Dental and Orthodontics in Farmington, NM, and Bloomfield, NM, we treat tooth extraction as a last resort. Our teams will do everything in our power to help you keep a full, natural smile for as long as possible. Restorative dentistry innovations allow us to save teeth even after severe infection and damage. However, in some rare cases, tooth extraction may be the best for your smile, comfort, and health.
Some reasons for tooth removal include:
- If the patient suffers from advanced periodontal disease or bone loss, tooth extraction may be necessary in some cases.
- If a tooth infection has become so severe that it threatens the health of the patient or the patient’s other teeth, having the tooth pulled might be the best thing for the patient’s oral health.
- In some cases, tooth extraction can be a part of orthodontic correction.
- Malpositioned teeth, fractured teeth, or tooth roots can sometimes lead to extraction.
Have Your Tooth Extracted With Gentle, Compassionate Care From a Dentist You Trust
When we perform a tooth extraction at Sundance Dental and Orthodontics in Rio Rancho or Farmington, NM,
we make patient care our top priority. Our teams at Sundance care about our patients and want each patient to
enjoy higher quality oral health with lower stress and greater comfort. Before you have your tooth pulled, your dentist will numb the area around the tooth. We will offer painkillers and a cold compress after routine extractions. Your dentist will perform the extraction by separating the tooth from the ligament and holding it in place. After your extraction, we will discuss your restorative options and take the next step toward a restored smile.
