What Is a Tooth Extraction?
A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. While many teeth can be preserved through restorative treatment, extraction becomes necessary in certain situations, such as:
-
Severe decay or infection that cannot be repaired.
-
Advanced gum disease leading to loosening of teeth.
-
Overcrowding affects alignment.
-
Impacted wisdom teeth.
-
Teeth damaged beyond repair due to injury.
Our team aims to provide extractions only when other restorative options are not feasible.
The Extraction Procedure
When visiting our cosmetology dentists in Guelph, our team ensures a careful and precise approach. Depending on the complexity of the case, the procedure may be classified as simple or surgical:
Simple extraction
-
Used when the tooth is visible above the gum line.
-
The dentist uses specific instruments to loosen and remove the tooth.
Surgical extraction
-
Required for teeth that are broken, impacted, or not easily accessible.
-
A small incision is made in the gum, and in some cases, the tooth is sectioned into smaller pieces for removal.
Throughout the procedure, our team strives to maintain precision and patient comfort. At Westwood & Starwood Dental, extractions are part of our cosmetic dentistry services, which support long-term oral health and appearance.
