Tooth Extractions Tucson, AZ

Tooth extractions involve the removal of a tooth to protect or restore your oral health. While preserving your natural teeth is always our priority, certain conditions can necessitate extraction as the best option for maintaining your smile’s functionality and health. At Cortaro Dental Care, we focus on making this process as comfortable and stress-free as possible while preparing you for a smooth recovery.

When Is Tooth Extraction Necessary?

Several conditions can require tooth extraction:

  • Severe Decay: When a tooth is damaged beyond repair, and restoration methods are no longer viable, extraction may be necessary to prevent further complications.
  • Advanced Infection: A tooth severely affected by infection or damage to the surrounding bone may need removal to preserve overall oral health.
  • Overcrowding: Some patients experience crowding, where teeth overlap due to limited space in the jaw. Extracting a tooth can create room for a balanced, properly aligned smile.
  • Wisdom Teeth: Impacted or improperly aligned wisdom teeth are often extracted to avoid pain, infection or damage to adjacent teeth.

Your Comfort Is Our Priority

Our dentist and team take great care to ensure your tooth extraction procedure is as comfortable and seamless as possible. We use advanced techniques and local anesthesia to minimize discomfort and prioritize your peace of mind throughout the process. After the procedure, you will receive detailed instructions on how to care for the extraction site to promote proper healing.
