We first wanna educate our patients about the restorability of the tooth. We give them a prognosis, of if we try to save the tooth, what that prognosis is, versus if the prognosis is better if we remove the tooth. We also like to talk to patients about options to replace a tooth if we end up having to remove it. And we'd really like to have that figured out, ideally, before we have to remove any teeth. And we also provide the patient with all the risks and benefits of tooth removal. We offer various sedation options that ... a lot of patients can be anxious about these types of procedures, so we provide various levels of oral sedation from (inaudible) and (inaudible) to oral to as far as IV sedation. So we make sure our patients are comfortable, they're educated in that type of procedure that's going on, the risks and benefits of the procedure and what's gonna happen throughout the procedure as well as post-op instructions.

Need Wisdom Teeth Extracted? No Problem
Whatever type of tooth removal you need, you can count on Perfect Smiles to keep you relaxed and pain-free during your procedure. Standard tooth removal is the most common type of extraction we do. It might be needed if your tooth is too badly diseased to save through root canal therapy or if teeth need to be removed to make room for dentures or orthodontics.
Thanks to our dentists’ expertise and years of experience, we can remove troublesome wisdom teeth too. Removing wisdom teeth often improves oral health by keeping surrounding teeth in their proper positions and by making it easier to keep your teeth clean.
Preserve Your Bone After an Extraction
If you need replacement teeth after an extraction, bone grafting with synthetic bone substitute can help with ridge preservation which allows you to keep your jaw healthy and strong for future implants or aesthetics. Immediate implant placement can be done when possible.
