Tooth Extractions in San Diego
We want you to enjoy a healthy, happy smile for as long as possible, so we focus on treatments and services that preserve the health and structure of your teeth. There are times, however, when we’ve looked at every possible solution and removal of a tooth is the healthiest, most sensible option.
The idea of losing a tooth is certainly upsetting. You are losing a tooth you thought you’d have for a long time. You also have to deal with the thought of going through the procedure itself.
You can be confident knowing you are in good hands with the skilled team at Peak Dental.
Reasons for Tooth Extraction
In some cases, it is necessary to remove a tooth on an emergency basis. Examples would be a dental trauma or severe root canal infection. However, there are a number of other reasons for extracting a tooth:
- We have exhausted all options for saving a severely decayed tooth.
- A root canal is severely infected and cannot be treated any other way.
- Wisdom teeth threaten the alignment of neighboring teeth.
- We’re planning full or partial dentures and need to remove one or more teeth.
- We're preparing orthodontic treatment for children.
Your Comfort Comes First
Dr. Sara Jeffrey has performed many extractions for both adults and children. Her skill, combined with the latest in technology, makes the procedure safe and efficient, which reduces your stress and any post-operative discomfort.
We completely understand that having a tooth pulled is a big deal. But in the gentle hands of the team at Peak Dental, you will find that the procedure is not nearly as complicated as you thought it would be.
