At Blanc Dentistry, we understand that tooth extractions can be a source of anxiety for both children and parents. That’s why we prioritize gentle, expert care in a calm and supportive environment. Whether it’s due to severe decay, infection, or overcrowding, our experienced pediatric dental team ensures that every extraction is performed with precision and compassion.
Understanding Tooth Extractions
A tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone. While we always aim to preserve natural teeth, there are instances where removal is the best option for your child’s oral health. Common reasons include:
-
Severe Tooth Decay or Infection
When a tooth is too damaged to repair with a filling or crown, extraction prevents the spread of infection and relieves pain.
-
Overcrowding
Extracting a tooth may be necessary to make room for proper alignment, especially before orthodontic treatment.
-
Impacted Teeth
Sometimes teeth, particularly wisdom teeth, don't fully emerge and can become trapped in the jawbone or gums, requiring removal.
-
Trauma or Injury
A damaged tooth beyond repair from an accident may need to be extracted to maintain dental health and comfort.
