Tooth Extraction in Irving, TX

A tooth extraction is a routine procedure at our dental practice here in Irving, TX.  The procedure generally includes an x-ray to assess the location, positioning, size and area around the tooth to be removed so we can determine the extent of the extraction process. A front tooth for example, has a single root which would require a less extensive procedure than a molar would, which has multiple roots.  Next, we determine the level of anesthesia that will keep you numb and comfortable throughout the procedure.

Once the tooth is removed, it can be replaced with a dental implant or a bridge so you will retain your smile and chewing ability.

Tooth Extraction in Irving, TX

Two Types Of Extractions

Simple Tooth Extractions

If your tooth is above the gum line and not impacted, Dr. Thirtha can then perform a simple extraction. After administering a local anesthetic to numb your mouth, she then carefully loosens your tooth with forceps and removes it.

Complex Tooth Extractions

A surgical tooth extraction is a more complex procedure, which is used if a tooth may have broken off at the gum line or has not erupted in the mouth. With complex extractions, Dr. Thirtha will provide the necessary medication to make sure you’re pain free throughout the process.

Once your complex tooth extraction is complete, our staff will provide you with instructions on how to care for yourself throughout the healing process and are available for whatever support you may need.

For more information about how we can help you achieve and maintain optimal oral health and a beautiful smile, give us a call at (972) 252-5500 or email us at Info@TruistDental.com. We look forward to hearing from you!

    I've never written a review for a dentist before, but I want others to know this practice is outstanding. I know when they find something that needs to be corrected, they're telling me the truth and that I'm not be charged for unnecessary services or care. Their staff is professional yet I feel like I'm a member of their family each time I come in for care.

    The whole staff is nice, they make you feel like friends not just some random patient coming in. They are very accommodating and can fit you in just about any time. He has an after hours number that he responds to almost immediately. Just a great place.
