At Alpharetta Creek Restorative Dentistry, we offer a comprehensive array of services designed to keep your smile healthy and intact for as long as possible. If a tooth becomes damaged, we will do everything possible to try to save it.
But in some cases, a tooth is so severely compromised that removing it is the safest, healthiest option.
A tooth may need to be extracted because of severe decay, damage caused by advanced periodontal disease, or it has fractured in such a way that we can't save it. We may also recommend extraction if you have problematic wisdom teeth or when we are preparing for orthodontic treatment or dentures therapy.
Your Comfort Is Our Priority
Our compassionate team understands that a procedure like extraction can cause dental anxiety. If you are feeling apprehensive or fearful about treatment, please share your concerns with us. Dental anxiety is quite common and nothing to be embarrassed about. When we understand your needs, we can take the steps necessary to ensure that your procedure is as comfortable and anxiety-free as possible.
Contrary to what you might think, tooth extraction is typically a straightforward procedure. Before we begin, we'll help you get settled in and make sure you're comfortable. Next, Dr. Kai numbs your mouth to make sure you don't feel discomfort. He then carefully and expertly removes the tooth. Your comfort is our priority, so please tell us right away if you feel any discomfort during the procedure.
