Tooth Extractions in Grimsby
Sometimes, removing a tooth is the best way to protect your long-term oral health. At Olive Street Dental, we offer gentle, precise tooth extractions to relieve pain, prevent complications, and support your overall well-being.
Dr. Amanpreet Kaur Sodhi and our caring team will walk you through every step of the process to ensure you feel comfortable and confident in your care.
Why You May Need a Tooth Extraction
There are several reasons a tooth may need to be removed, including:
- Wisdom Teeth: If wisdom teeth don’t have enough space to grow in properly, they can cause pain, crowding, or damage to nearby teeth. Removing them early often prevents future problems.
- Severe Decay or Damage: Teeth that are too compromised to repair may need to be extracted to prevent infection and restore comfort.
- Advanced Gum Disease: When periodontal disease has caused significant bone loss around a tooth, removal can be the healthiest option.
Benefits of Tooth Extraction
While the idea of losing a tooth can feel stressful, extractions can:
- Relieve ongoing pain and discomfort
- Protect surrounding teeth from damage or infection
- Create space for orthodontic treatment or dentures
- Support long-term oral health
Our team’s priority is to make sure you feel informed, at ease, and supported before, during, and after your procedure.
What to Expect
Your care starts with a thorough consultation and exam. We’ll assess your teeth, review any X-rays, and explain your options in detail.
During the extraction, we use a local anesthetic to numb the area completely. You may feel gentle pressure as the tooth is loosened and removed, but you won’t feel pain. For more complex cases, such as impacted wisdom teeth, dissolvable stitches may be used to support proper healing.
After your procedure, we’ll provide clear instructions and follow-up care to help you recover smoothly.
