Teeth extractions are often the best way to provide you with relief if you have a seriously damaged or infected tooth. You can heal, recover, and get back to your day-to-day routine without pain and discomfort.
Another benefit of tooth extractions is that, in some situations, pulling a tooth is the best way to avoid further complications. For example, extracting an infected tooth will prevent the infection from spreading.
Another advantage of teeth extractions at Corona Smile Shoppe is that Dr. Martinez offers lots of options for replacing your damaged teeth and restoring your smile, including partial dentures, dental bridges, and dental implants. This lets you restore your smile, your oral health, and your self-confidence.
Basic tooth extractions are used to remove damaged teeth that can’t be restored with any other dental treatments. For example, a basic extraction may be used to pull a tooth that’s been damaged by major oral trauma, a severely infected tooth, or a tooth that’s been destroyed by advanced gum disease.
This depends on the specifics of your situation. At Corona Smile Shoppe, Dr. Martinez practices conservative dentistry. Whenever it’s possible to do so, Dr. Martinez will restore your existing teeth with treatments like root canals and dental crowns, rather than extracting them.
Wisdom tooth extractions are very common, and more than 10 million wisdom teeth are pulled each year. This is because the wisdom teeth often do not grow into the mouth properly. They may damage the nearby teeth, increase the risk of oral infections, and cause other problems if this happens, so many people choose to have their wisdom teeth removed.
You don’t need a wisdom tooth extraction unless your wisdom teeth are causing major oral health problems. Signs that your wisdom teeth may need to come out include pain and soreness in the back of your mouth, stiffness or pain in your jaw, gum inflammation near the wisdom teeth, or a bad taste in your mouth.
The answer is different for each patient. Sometimes, tooth extractions may be the best way to restore your oral health. But in most cases, it may be possible to save one or more of your teeth without resorting to an extraction. To find out if you need a tooth extraction and explore possible alternatives, contact Corona Smile Shoppe for an appointment with Dr. Martinez today.
