What’s Oral Tooth Extraction Surgery?

Why Can’t You Save My Tooth?

Sometimes, a tooth is damaged or decayed beyond the point that it can be repaired. This can be caused by infection, gum disease, decay or being broken. We always strive to save your tooth but sometimes it just isn’t possible.

Can Broken, Cracked or Severely Decayed Teeth Be Removed by a Dentist?

When decay reaches the center of the tooth, it can extend into the root and you’ll need a root canal to alleviate your pain. If the decay is still on the surface, we can perform a tooth extraction which is considered a part of general dentistry. Root canals are considered oral surgery and should be performed by a specialist in the field. After your teeth extraction, we’ll provide you with options for replacing your missing teeth. If you need an extraction, call our office in Hialeah to set up an appointment.

Why Do I Have Crowded and Crooked Teeth?

Crowded and crooked teeth can leave you feeling self-conscious about your smile. Sometimes, in order to apply braces, some of your teeth will need to be removed if there are too many of them. This will make room for the teeth to be straightened with braces or other dental devices. Call our office in Hialeah for an appointment.

What Are My Care Instructions If I’m Getting a Tooth Pulled?

What Should I Expect For Healing Time For A Tooth Extraction In Hialeah?

Tooth extraction healing time is different for each patient who has a tooth pulled. As such, your dentist will let you know when you can resume strenuous activities. Complete healing of your tooth removal site usually takes about a week. Keep in mind that molar extractions can take longer than a week. If you’re had oral surgery, it will take longer to heal as you may have stitches.
