Preserve Your Beautiful Smile With Extractions

Although͏͏ tooth͏͏ extractions͏͏ may͏͏ seem͏͏ frightening,͏͏ in͏͏ certain͏͏ cases͏͏ they͏͏ may͏͏ be͏͏ the͏͏ most͏͏ ideal͏͏ way͏͏ to͏͏ maintain͏͏ long-term͏͏ oral͏͏ health.͏͏ At͏͏ Burlington͏͏ Dental͏͏ Centre,͏͏ our͏͏ kind͏͏ and͏͏ compassionate staff͏͏ makes͏͏ it͏͏ their͏͏ mission͏͏ to͏͏ ensure͏͏ your͏͏ extraction͏͏ procedure͏͏ is͏͏ straightforward,͏͏ soothing͏͏ and͏͏ tailored͏͏ to͏͏ your͏͏ specific͏͏ requirements!͏͏

What͏͏ Are͏͏ Extractions?

The͏͏ goal of͏͏ tooth͏͏ extractions͏͏ is to͏͏ reduce͏͏ discomfort,͏͏ stop͏͏ additional͏͏ dental͏͏ health͏͏ problems,͏͏ and͏͏ improve͏͏ general͏͏ dental͏͏ health.͏͏ By͏͏ eliminating͏͏ the͏͏ infection's͏͏ source͏͏ and͏͏ stopping͏͏ it͏͏ from͏͏ spreading͏͏ to͏͏ healthy͏͏ teeth,͏͏ this͏͏ procedure͏͏ may͏͏ successfully͏͏ protect͏͏ your͏͏ smile.͏͏

Who Is A Candidate For This Treatment?

Not everyone needs an extraction, but patients with the following may benefit from it:

• Patients With Severe Tooth Decay or Damage: When a tooth is extensively decayed or damaged beyond repair, an extraction might be required to avoid infection transmission.
• Individuals With Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Wisdom teeth that do not have room to emerge properly may cause pain and infection. Impacted wisdom teeth could also lead to alignment issues.
• People With Crowding Issues: When teeth are too crowded within the mouth, extractions may be vital to provide space and encourage ideal alignment.
• Those With Gum Disease: Teeth that are difficult to clean because of their position or state may need to be removed because they raise the risk of developing periodontal disease.

 How͏͏ to͏͏ Care͏͏ For͏͏ Your͏͏ Smile͏͏ After͏͏ an͏͏ Extraction

Optimal͏͏ oral͏͏ health͏͏ care is͏͏ critical͏͏ after͏͏ your͏͏ extraction͏͏ because͏͏ it͏͏ can͏͏ support͏͏ smooth͏͏ healing͏͏ and͏͏ a͏͏ healthy͏͏ smile.͏͏ Follow͏͏ these͏͏ tips͏͏ and͏͏ be͏͏ sure͏͏ to͏͏ contact͏͏ our͏͏ dental͏͏ team͏͏ if͏͏ you͏͏ experience͏͏ any͏͏ significant͏͏ post-procedure-related͏͏ discomfort:

• Avoid anything that could prevent normal healing.
• Don’t smoke or rinse your mouth vigorously.
