What to Expect during a Tooth Extraction
At Heritage Dental, we treat our patients like family, and families support each other in times of need without judgment. Our experienced dental team loves what they do and will treat you with kindness and respect for your concerns. We aim to do everything necessary to help you have a comfortable, stress-free experience.
- Evaluation and Planning — Our dentists will conduct a thorough exam using advanced digital imaging technology. We will then discuss your specific situation, explain why extraction is necessary, and answer all your questions to ensure you’re comfortable with your treatment plan.
- Ensuring Your Comfort — The Weigle family of dentists ensures your comfort throughout the procedure. We use powerful local anesthetics to numb the area and offer nitrous oxide sedation for those with dental anxiety.
- Expert Tooth Removal — Dr. Dalton received advanced training in oral surgery during his residency and brings skill and expertise to the process. We focus on conservative techniques that minimize discomfort and promote faster healing.
- Comprehensive Aftercare — After your procedure, we provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing. Our team is available to answer your questions during recovery and will check in with you to make sure you're doing well and promptly address any concerns.
A tooth extraction is generally a last-resort procedure to remove unsalvageable teeth. While the thought of the procedure may be daunting, the team at Heritage Dental understands and will make sure you feel comfortable and supported throughout the process.
