Sometimes, tooth extractions become necessary due to various dental issues. Our experienced team at Reform Dentistry in Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania, led by Dr. Aldouri, offers both surgical and non-surgical extractions when needed.
When decay has progressed to an advanced stage and the tooth cannot be restored with treatments like fillings or crowns, extraction may be the best option.
Advanced gum disease can lead to tooth mobility and loss, necessitating extractions to prevent further oral health complications.
In some cases, tooth extractions are part of orthodontic treatment plans to create space for proper tooth alignment.
Teeth that are severely broken or fractured beyond repair may need to be extracted to prevent infection and pain.
A: Dr. Aldouri and our team prioritize your comfort during extractions. Local anesthesia is administered to numb the area, ensuring that you don't feel pain during the procedure. Post-operative discomfort can usually be managed with pain medication as prescribed.
A: Recovery time varies depending on the complexity of the extraction. Simple extractions may have a shorter recovery period, while surgical extractions may take a bit longer. Our team will provide post-operative care instructions to help you heal effectively.
A: Initially, you'll want to stick to soft foods and avoid chewing near the extraction site. As you heal, you can gradually reintroduce a normal diet. Our team will provide dietary guidelines to follow during your recovery.
