Family Dentistry Services
Sometimes, a tooth cannot be repaired by a dental restoration. When this happens, our dentist may recommend removing the tooth to keep the rest of your mouth healthy. Our team will discuss replacement options with you before the tooth removal to help ensure your smile remains functional and beautiful.
Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth. While we strive to avoid the need to remove a tooth whenever possible, certain conditions may make tooth extraction the most effective option for returning your smile to good health and function. Following the tooth extraction, we are happy to provide you with one of our excellent tooth replacement treatments to restore your smile to optimal health, beauty and function.

During your regular dental checkups, Our team will perform a thorough examination and take x-rays to look for any early signs of problem areas. He will be able to identify if your wisdom teeth have become impacted before they cause any side effects.
An impacted wisdom tooth may cause the following symptoms:
Oftentimes, patients’ mouths and jaws simply aren’t large enough for their wisdom teeth to grow in properly. This is called impaction, when the wisdom tooth fails to erupt, partially erupts, or even grows at an angle so that eruption is impossible.
If you avoid getting your impacted wisdom teeth removed, they can cause jawbone damage, nerve damage, infection, and other side effects. It’s best to receive treatment for an impacted wisdom tooth through oral surgery so they don’t affect your other teeth in the future.
No matter what your needs or goals for your smile may be, our dentists and teams are here to help. We look forward to meeting you and every member of your family and helping you take your first steps to better smiles.
