Extractions

Our team prioritizes the preservation of your child’s natural teeth whenever possible. However, there are some instances where it becomes necessary to remove your child’s tooth.

Reasons for tooth extractions:

• Baby teeth that stay in the mouth longer than normal
• A tooth that has been too severely damaged by trauma, tooth decay, or infection
• In preparation of receiving braces or other types of orthodontic treatment as recommended by your orthodontist

If you have questions about your child’s tooth extraction or if you’d like to discuss the sedation options for your child prior to the extraction, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
