Tooth Extraction in Great Neck
There are different reasons why a person may need to have a tooth extracted. At Great Neck Natural Smiles, our dentist, Dr. Howard K. Baylarian, can provide you with both simple and surgical
tooth extraction in Great Neck, when needed.
At our dental practice, we will always strive to save our patients’ teeth. However, there are times when a patient will need to have a
tooth extraction in Great Neck. Should this be the case, our dentist will be able to provide this service for you, while you remain comfortable due to our use of excellent local anesthesia and modern dental techniques. A common reason why a person may need to have a tooth extracted is because they have a wisdom tooth that is infected or impacted. Since wisdom teeth are the last teeth in the mouth to erupt, they commonly develop problems at this point. However, since wisdom teeth are not needed for chewing or for clear speech, it is usually recommended that they are extracted if they are causing any type of problem in the mouth. Wisdom teeth cannot only cause tooth pain, but they can also cause serious infection, or problems with other teeth which are pushed out of position. If a tooth is damaged, and has infected pulp in its center, it can usually be fixed with a root canal treatment. However, there are times when a root canal treatment is not recommended, or simply cannot be successful. If this is the case, our dentist will be able to extract the tooth, and replaced it with either a dental bridge or a dental implant. Patients may also need to have teeth extracted if they are undergoing orthodontic care, and there is not enough room in the mouth for all teeth to be properly positioned. However, this need is becoming less frequent as more and more parents are having their children take advantage of early interceptive orthodontic care.
