Dental Extractions

Gentle dental extractions for a healthier smile

Dental extractions are procedures where a tooth is removed from its socket in the bone. This is typically done when a tooth is severely decayed, damaged, or infected beyond repair. Extractions can also be necessary for teeth that are crowding the mouth or causing alignment issues. At Mariner Dentistry, we provide comfortable and efficient extractions with minimal discomfort, ensuring a smooth recovery process.

Professional dental extractions for better oral health

Before the procedure, the dentist will numb the area with local anesthesia to ensure you don’t feel pain. Depending on the tooth’s condition, the extraction may be a simple procedure or require surgical intervention. After the tooth is removed, the dentist will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help ensure proper healing. Follow-up visits may be necessary to ensure there are no complications.

Benefits of Dental Extractions

Dental extractions can provide relief from pain, prevent the spread of infection, and help facilitate other dental treatments like orthodontics or implants.

Pain Relief
If a tooth is infected, decayed, or causing discomfort, extraction can provide immediate relief and prevent further pain from spreading to surrounding teeth.
Prevention of Infection
Removing damaged or infected teeth can prevent bacteria from spreading to other areas of your mouth, reducing the risk of further complications.
Improved Oral Health
Extracting teeth that are beyond repair can improve the health of your gums and remaining teeth, preventing future oral health problems.
Space for Orthodontic Treatments
In some cases, extractions may be necessary to create space for braces or other orthodontic treatments to improve alignment and the overall function of your smile.
