Types of Tooth Extractions
The methods used to remove a tooth varies depending on how your tooth is seated in your gums.
A simple extraction is the removal of a tooth crown that has fully erupted above the gum line. A tooth crown that is fully erupted can usually be loosened and pulled out with minimal anesthesia and no cutting or breaking apart the tooth. This procedure may be recommended for teeth that are clearly visible and easy to remove.
A surgical extraction is the removal of a tooth that has not fully erupted above the gum line. It may be partially visible or may still be completely under the gums. To successfully remove the tooth, incisions and tooth breakage may be required. A surgical extraction usually requires more anesthesia, and many patients opt for sedation (laughing gas) as well.
At Majestic Dentistry, we provide simple extractions and some straightforward surgical extractions. If your teeth require more intensive surgery, especially in the case of wisdom teeth, we may refer you to a specialist. For comprehensive care, our tooth extraction services in Anthem, AZ, are designed to ensure your comfort and oral health throughout the process.
