While we always strive to save your natural teeth whenever possible, there are situations where removal is the healthiest option. You may need a tooth extraction if you have:
- Severe decay or infection that can’t be repaired
- A broken or damaged tooth beyond restoration
- Overcrowded teeth before orthodontic treatment
- Impacted wisdom teeth causing pain or swelling
Our experienced dental team will carefully evaluate your situation and discuss all possible alternatives before recommending an extraction.
What to Expect During the Procedure
Tooth extractions at Cedar Creek Dental are performed using gentle techniques and local anesthesia to keep you completely comfortable. For more complex cases — such as impacted teeth — we may also use sedation to help you relax.
After the tooth is removed, we provide clear aftercare instructions to promote quick healing and prevent complications.
What Happens After an Extraction?
Once a tooth is removed, it’s important to consider replacement options to maintain proper bite alignment and prevent bone loss. Depending on your needs, we may recommend:
- Dental implants for a permanent, natural-looking replacement
- Bridges or partial dentures to restore function and aesthetics
Comfortable, Compassionate Care You Can Trust
At Cedar Creek Dental, we understand that dental extractions can make patients nervous — that’s why we focus on comfort, communication, and gentle care at every step. Our goal is to protect your oral health while keeping you completely at ease.
