Our dentists in Timmins offers tooth removals/extractions, including wisdom teeth removal.
General Extractions
Why might a person need a tooth removal/extraction?
Your dentist may recommend a tooth being removed if there is infection is damaging the surrounding bone or is causing you discomfort.
The dentists will consult with you to determine whether or not an extraction is necessary.
How does the tooth removal procedure work?
We begin the procedure with a local anesthetic to make you feel comfortable during the appointment. We use dental tools to loosen the tooth from its socket before its removal.
Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Why might I need my wisdom teeth extracted?
Wisdom teeth are often removed if they affect your jaw, gums and/or teeth in the surrounding area.
Impacted wisdom teeth are unable to fully erupt which can lead to bacteria and food getting trapped. This can lead to decay, infection and pain.
When should I get my wisdom teeth extracted?
Every patient is different, so please consult your dentist if your wisdom teeth are causing you discomfort.
