Tooth Extractions – Dr. Friedberg & Associates
Gentle, Professional Tooth Removal
At Dr. Friedberg & Associates, we provide safe and comfortable extractions to protect your oral health. While preserving your natural teeth is always our first priority, sometimes removing a tooth is the best option to prevent further problems and maintain overall dental wellness.
When Extractions Are Necessary
There are several reasons why a tooth might need to be removed. Common situations include severe decay, advanced gum disease, impacted wisdom teeth, or trauma that has damaged the tooth beyond repair. In some orthodontic cases, extractions may also be needed to create space for proper alignment.
Our Approach to Comfort and Care
We understand that patients may feel nervous about this type of procedure. That’s why our team uses modern techniques, local anesthesia, and sedation options to make the process as comfortable as possible. Every step of your extractions is performed with precision and care to ensure a smooth recovery.
The Extraction Process
Consultation and Exam – We assess the tooth, review X-rays, and discuss treatment options.
Anesthesia – Local anesthesia is administered to numb the area.
Gentle Removal – Using specialized tools, the tooth is removed with minimal discomfort.
Aftercare Instructions – We provide guidance to promote healing and prevent complications.
Recovery After Extractions
Most patients experience mild swelling or soreness for a few days. Following our aftercare instructions, such as eating soft foods and avoiding smoking, will help speed up the healing process. If you have questions or concerns after your extractions, our team is here to help.
