Dentist in White Plains, NY
If your tooth is severely damaged due to injury, decay or periodontal disease, our dentists may recommend removing it from your mouth. Dr. Lisha Shrestha and Dr. Asha Gulati will extract your tooth as gently as possible and will discuss replacement options with you in order to find the right type of restoration for your smile. They may also recommend laser dentistry to make your tooth extraction more comfortable. Call Everest Dental PC to schedule your appointment and for more information about tooth extractions in White Plains, New York.
Whatever your dental complaint, when you meet with our dentists to discuss treatment options available for returning your smile to full health, a full tooth extraction will always be one of our very last recommendations. Our goal will always be to save your smile without removing natural teeth, but in some cases of extreme decay or damage, a tooth extraction may be the most effective way to return your smile to full health and function. A tooth extraction may be recommended if:
- A significant portion of the tooth and surrounding bone has been destroyed by infection
- The tooth has been damaged beyond repair or restoration by advanced dental decay
- There is severe overcrowding in the mouth that cannot be corrected by orthodontic treatment
If this is the case for you, we will discuss all of your tooth replacement options to fill the gap in your smile as quickly and comfortably as possible before moving forward with the extraction. We will also do everything we can to make the removal as quick and pain-free as possible, including providing you with detailed instructions on how to care for your smile after your extraction.
