Tooth Extraction Process
We understand the thought of tooth extraction can be daunting. At Scottsdale Cosmetic Dentistry, we use advanced technology and soothing sedation options to ensure a comfortable and stress-free experience.
The process begins with an initial consultation, where Dr. Clark will conduct a thorough examination and take x-rays to determine if extraction is necessary. Before we begin, we numb the area with local anesthesia to ensure you feel no pain during the procedure. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation are also available for your comfort.
Depending on the complexity of the extraction, we may remove the tooth in one piece or break it into smaller sections for easier removal. After the procedure, our team will provide detailed post-extraction instructions to help you manage any discomfort and ensure proper healing.
Bone Grafting
After a tooth extraction, bone grafting is often recommended to preserve the natural shape and density of your jawbone. This procedure involves placing a biocompatible grafting material into the extraction site to support bone regeneration, which can prevent bone loss and maintain the contour of your gums and jaw. Preserving the bone is especially important if you plan to replace the missing tooth with a dental implant in the future. Bone grafting helps create a strong foundation for implants, ensures better esthetic results, and can improve long-term oral health. The procedure is minimally invasive, safe, and designed to promote natural healing for optimal outcomes.
