Dental Extractions in Farmington, Utah
Skilled Dental Extractions
Dental extractions, also known as full mouth tooth extractions or full arch extractions, involve the removal of all the teeth in a patient’s upper or lower jaw. This procedure is usually done under general anesthesia, which means that the patient is unconscious during the procedure.
Expose & Bonds
Sometimes a tooth doesn’t need to be extracted, but it does need a little help. Impacted teeth can be brought out from where they are stuck under the gums through a procedure called an expose and bond. For example, surgery may include putting a bracket on the tooth, which will allow it to be pulled into place over time through orthodontic care.
Dental Extractions
When a tooth needs to come out, not just anyone should jump into the game. You deserve an oral surgeon whose expertise comforts you to the point of not putting off your needed procedure. After all, delaying dental extractions can threaten the health of surrounding teeth, as well as your health in general.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
The most common teeth that are removed are your Wisdom Teeth. Being the last ones to show up for the game, there may not be enough room for them. The problems that can result aren’t just superficial, but can cause immense discomfort and impact your bite. If these teeth are fully or partially impacted, they can leave you vulnerable to infection, tumors, and cysts.
