Does it really seem appropriate to have a tooth extraction to improve your oral health? While our goal when caring for patients is to minimize smile changes, sometimes an extraction is appropriate. Performing this procedure will stop the further spread of bacteria already within the tooth, and it can put an end to the active discomfort that you feel. At our Riverside, CA dentist’s office, we are prepared to perform both this service and the work that goes into replacing teeth that are lost. Through the right commitment to care, we can see you through your immediate issues and ensure that you have a restoration in place that preserves your appearance and offers surprising comfort and bite support.

Why Oral Health Issues Sometimes Require Tooth Extraction

An evaluation of your tooth will let us know just how much work it needs to have its health restored. Both dental fillings and dental crowns are used to restore teeth that have been damaged. Unfortunately, sometimes neither is appropriate, and you will instead need to have the tooth removed. Extractions offer certain benefits that you should know about. One is that an infected tooth will no longer be able to cause problems for your smile, or for your overall health. Another is that this can bring about welcome relief from the persistent pain you have felt from that tooth.

Fully Addressing Your Smile Needs By Providing Extraction And Prosthetic Treatment

In addition to taking out a problem tooth, we can make arrangements to replace what you lost with a dental bridge or implant-held restoration. Completing care in this way can ensure your smile is fully restored, and it can give you back important bite support. We can discuss the benefits of each approach with you—both offer the stability of permanent restorations, and they can each help with offering bite support as well as benefits for your smile.
