Tooth extraction is sometimes necessary to maintain your oral health, whether due to decay, infection, or overcrowding. At Lake Travis Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, we understand that the thought of having a tooth removed can be daunting, so we strive to make the process as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

Our experienced dental team will evaluate your condition to determine if tooth extraction is the best course of action. We use state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to ensure that the procedure is quick, safe, and minimally invasive. Local anesthesia is administered to numb the area, and we offer sedation options for patients who experience anxiety during dental procedures.

There are several reasons why a tooth extraction may be necessary. Severe tooth decay that cannot be treated with a filling or crown, an impacted wisdom tooth, or a tooth damaged beyond repair due to trauma are all situations where extraction may be the best option. Removing the tooth can help prevent further complications, such as infection or damage to surrounding teeth.

After the extraction, we provide detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and minimize discomfort. Our team will also discuss replacement options if the extracted tooth leaves a gap, such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures, to restore function and appearance.

At Lake Travis Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, tooth extraction your comfort and well-being are our top priorities. We take the time to answer any questions you may have and provide the care and support you need throughout the process.
