Comfortable Dental Extractions
Nobody wants to have dental extractions, but sometimes it’s the best thing for your smile. If Dr. Tiner is unable to restore your tooth, pulling it can prevent infection from spreading, and pain from continuing. For example, some of the reasons why he may suggest having a tooth extracted include:
- Emergencies
- Chronic pain or discomfort
- Severe tooth decay
- Advanced periodontal disease
- Full mouth reconstruction
- Impacted wisdom tooth removal
Specifically, we want to help you save your smile if at all possible. Sometimes we may recommend a crown or a root canal, depending on the extent of the dental injury. If restoration isn’t an option, then pulling it is typically the recommended procedure.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Feeling a bit nervous about your extraction? That’s ok! We offer nitrous oxide sedation during any procedure, whether it’s an extraction or a preventive cleaning. Oral sedation dentistry is also available. Ultimately, we want to help you access the care you need, in as comfortable a manner as possible.
Dental Extractions Technology
Our Richardson dentist office now utilizes advanced PIEZOSURGERY® treatments for a less invasive, faster tooth removal.
Using microvibrations, we can make extremely precise and efficient surgical extractions. This technology helps us to protect the soft tissues, including gingiva and nerves around areas like your wisdom teeth. The results offer a cleaner, more accurate surgery so that you can heal more comfortably.
Piezo technology also results in less inflammation along with increased bone remodeling post-surgery. Ask if PIEZOSURGERY® is right for your next surgical extraction or wisdom tooth removal.
Replacing Missing Teeth
After your extraction, it’s very important to replace your tooth quickly, otherwise, the excess space can cause your other teeth to shift. This can impact teeth throughout your entire mouth, regardless of whether or not they are adjacent to the missing tooth. Dr. Tiner provides several types of dental services, including fixed bridges, dental implants, and dentures.
Save your tooth and prevent dental emergencies by scheduling a preventive care appointment every 6 months. We’ll help you pinpoint problems that could create urgent situations later on.
