Understanding Dental Extractions
While tooth extraction might seem daunting, it's sometimes necessary for your overall oral health. At Minty Smiles, our experienced team ensures a comfortable, pain-free extraction process for every patient in Duncanville and surrounding areas.
Common Reasons for Tooth Extraction
We may recommend tooth extraction for several important reasons:
- Severe tooth damage or trauma
- Irregular placement or nonfunctioning teeth
- Preparation for orthodontic treatment
- Removal of extra teeth
- Pre-treatment for radiation therapy
- Before beginning chemotherapy
- Prior to organ transplant procedures
Wisdom Teeth Removal: Expert Care at Minty Smiles
Wisdom teeth often require special attention and removal. Our experienced dental team carefully evaluates each patient's situation to determine if wisdom teeth extraction is necessary.
Signs You Need Wisdom Teeth Removal
You might need your wisdom teeth removed if:
- They're impacted and unable to break through the gum
- Your mouth is too small to accommodate wisdom teeth
- The teeth are emerging at problematic angles
- They're causing displacement of other teeth
- You're experiencing sinus-related problems
- They're interfering with previous dental work
- There's increased risk of cavities due to swollen gums
- Proper cleaning becomes difficult due to inflammation
- Cysts are forming around the teeth
