What Are Tooth Extractions?
A tooth extraction is a dental procedure used to remove a tooth that is severely damaged, decayed, infected, or causing crowding. Extractions may be necessary when a tooth cannot be repaired with a filling, crown, or root canal, or when removing teeth to support an orthodontic treatment.
At Longhorn Dental, we perform extractions with a focus on patient comfort and safety. Our compassionate team uses modern restorative dentistry techniques and sedation options when appropriate to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
