Tooth Extractions

/

Sometimes, removing a tooth is the best step to protect your overall oral health.

At Hayes Barton Dentistry, Dr. Charlotte Hunt performs tooth extractions with precision and care, prioritizing your comfort throughout the process. Whether due to severe decay, damage, or overcrowding, an extraction can relieve pain, prevent further complications, and prepare your mouth for restorative treatments.

What to Expect with a Tooth Extraction

Tooth extractions at Hayes Barton Dentistry are carried out with a focus on minimizing discomfort and ensuring a smooth recovery. Dr. Hunt will begin by thoroughly examining the tooth and surrounding area, using digital imaging to plan the extraction procedure. For your comfort, we offer local anesthesia and can discuss sedation options if needed.

During the procedure, the tooth is gently removed with specialized tools, and the area is cleaned to reduce the risk of infection. After the extraction, Dr. Hunt will provide detailed aftercare instructions to support healing, including tips for managing discomfort and maintaining oral hygiene. If needed, we can also discuss options for replacing the extracted tooth to restore function and appearance.
