TOOTH EXTRACTIONS

In the event that a tooth or multiple teeth cannot be saved, you may need a tooth extraction.  At Welland Dental Care we make every extraction a painless and worry-free procedure by taking the following steps. First, the area around the tooth that needs to be removed receives a freezing which completely blocks out the sensation of pain to the area.

Painless Tooth Extraction. How we do it.

The area is first numbed with a topical gel in order to make the freezing injection more comfortable. To help patients that are uneasy with this, we also offer nitrous and conscious oral sedation, to ease in this process. Many patients who have elected to have sedation often report feeling relaxed and comfortable during the procedure. Once the area has been numbed and the freezing has been applied, the tooth is safely, and painlessly removed.

There are a number of reasons why a tooth might need to be removed. Perhaps due to damage beyond repair, infection, or due to gum disease. In cases where wisdom teeth are impacted, decayed or infected, an extraction might also be recommended or required. Patients who are undergoing orthodontic treatment for a crowded bite may also require an extraction in order to create space to properly align the smile (see our Invisalign Service to learn more about Orthodontic care without braces!).

Whatever the reason for a dental extraction, our team will make your procedure both painless, effortless and anxiety free.
