Tooth Extractions - Durham Dental Solutions

Do You Suffer from Problem Teeth?

Tooth Extraction May Be a Solution to Discomfort

Having problem teeth affects more than just your smile—it can affect your self-esteem, your diet, and even cause you frequent tooth pain. When a problem tooth cannot be saved with dental treatment, it is often recommended that a tooth extraction be performed to prevent more complications from developing in the future. At Durham Dental Solutions, we will do whatever is best to save your teeth, but when tooth extraction is necessary, we can use our dental sedation options to provide you with gentle tooth extraction.

Replace Your Teeth with Dental Implants

After a tooth extraction, we will often perform socket preservation bone grafting to fill the empty socket and restore proper bone volume. This will help ensure teeth do not shift into the empty area and that you are qualified to replace your extracted tooth with a dental implant. Dental implants can restore both the appearance and function back to your smile. In many cases, we can place your new dental implants the same day as your tooth extraction and get you on the path to a complete smile again.

Dental Implants

If you have a damaged or failing tooth, we may need to perform a tooth extraction to preserve your overall oral health. Patients can then choose to replace their missing tooth with a dental implant. Dental implants help fill the gap of missing teeth and allow you to use your mouth normally again.

Full Arch Dental Implants

Patients in need of full arch dental implants need to have any remaining teeth extracted to make room for the prosthesis. Tooth extractions of remaining healthy and failing teeth is often necessary in order to provide you with this complete smile rejuvenation.

Damaged Teeth

Broken, fractured or severely damaged teeth may need to be extracted if the tooth is beyond saving with a root canal and dental crown or causes excessive tooth pain. Tooth extractions of damaged teeth help relieve pain by removing pieces of teeth that no longer function properly or are stuck in the gum tissue or jaw bone.

Diseased Teeth

If a tooth is severely diseased and the interior pulp chamber becomes compromised, it can cause painful abscesses to form in the jaw and even spread infection to surrounding teeth or other parts of the body. When a root canal will not save these teeth, tooth extraction is an effective option to relieving pain and stopping the infection from spreading.

Advanced Gum Disease

When gum disease has been left untreated, the infection can harm your jaw bone and tooth structure, causing tooth pain and loose teeth. Gentle tooth extraction of severely infected teeth can allow gum disease to be treated and prevent further tooth pain and oral complications.

If your tooth is badly decayed and can’t be saved, your dentist may recommend a common surgical procedure called a tooth extraction.

The Gold Standard of Tooth Replacement

After tooth extraction, we always recommend replacing it with a high-quality, lifelike dental implant to preserve oral health and give you the beautiful, natural smile you deserve. Considered the gold standard for missing teeth, dental implants mimic natural tooth function and appearance. Implants can be used to replace a single tooth or even replace a full arch of missing teeth, which will require any remaining teeth be extracted to allow room for a natural-looking prosthesis. Our team of experienced doctors are uniquely qualified to extract problem teeth and replace them with state-of-the-art dental implants.

Partial Extraction Therapy

When a tooth is lost, over time the bone and gum in the area shrinks in volume without anything to stimulate them. Dental implants provide this stimulation to the bone and therefore slow this process significantly, but even with implants the bone does continue to shrink. To address this issue a technique was developed called partial extraction therapy.

This procedure is where your tooth is sectioned and the majority of it is removed but leaving behind a thin shelf of tooth against the bone in the front. It essentially works with our natural biology in tricking the body to treat it as if a tooth is still there. Preventing any shrinkage over time and maintaining the natural gum architecture we often see lost after implant surgery.

At Durham dental implant solutions we are always striving for perfection. It is our mission to provide implant treatments that aren’t just successful now, but that will stand up to the test of time.
