Any reputable dental practice should do everything they can to fix a tooth prior to thinking about extracting it. At Dental Group NY, our acclaimed group of dentists and oral surgery experts are well-versed in corrective solutions such as crowns, bridges, dental implants, and root canal treatment in the Bronx. Whenever possible, we will work with a patient to save and correct a tooth rather than extract it.
However, in some instances, it is unavoidable to have to extract a tooth. Such instances include situations where deep-lying infection has taken root in the jaw, or when overcrowding gets to the point of developing serious oral health complications. In situations such as these, tooth extractions are virtually unavoidable. Fortunately, the team at Dental Group NY in the Bronx and Hollis, NY, have decades of experience in tooth extractions and utilize state-of-the-art sedation to ensure that every procedure is as pain-free as possible for the patient.

There are many instances where it may be necessary to extract a tooth. Teeth must be extracted for the placement of dentures or for the surgical placement of dental implants. They may also need removal after severe damage from impact trauma, when cosmetic solutions cannot restore proper aesthetics and functionality. Additionally, emergency dentistry is sometimes required to address severe pain, infection, or other urgent dental issues that cannot wait for routine treatment.
There are dozens of variables that come into play when it comes to determining how a tooth is extracted. In a broad sense, however, there are two main types of tooth extractions: simple and surgical. Simple extractions involve removing a fully formed tooth above the gumline, while a surgical extraction, a type of oral surgery, involves removing a tooth that has yet to emerge from the gums (i.e. wisdom teeth extractions).
For any tooth extraction in the Bronx or Queens, the first step our team at Dental Group NY will take is to adequately numb and sedate the patient. This will allow for a seamless and nearly pain-free experience, and will ensure that healing takes place as quickly and efficiently as possible.
