When Tooth Extraction Is Essential

We will first scan your smile with the help of dental technology and learn how the symptoms arise before deciding on tooth extractions. These are some more definite circumstances in which tooth extractions are inevitable:

  • Periodontitis: This severe form of gum disease needs containment before spreading to other areas of your smile. Tooth extractions help to eliminate the issue immediately.
  • Gum Infections: Untreated gum infections can move into your tooth roots, causing your teeth to fall apart on their own. Extractions are helpful if a tooth is already damaged.
  • Blunt Tooth Damage: Excessive force on your teeth can cause intense pain that needs to be treated immediately. We will scan your smile to choose which teeth need removal.

If there is anything else that we can do to make your stay with us more enjoyable, don’t hesitate to ask! Our office is eager to help talk through patient’s needs and concerns. Give our Bountiful, UT, office a call today!

Making Tooth Extractions A Pleasant Experience

Tooth extractions may cause minimal pain as your teeth adjust after the initial damage. However, our dentists will first numb the area around your tooth and use sedation dentistry to minimize any pain while the tooth is being removed. 

The help of modern dental tools makes tooth extractions less complicated than ever.

Tooth Replacement Options After Extraction

After a tooth extraction, replacing the missing tooth is essential for maintaining proper oral health and restoring your smile’s appearance. At Bahr Dental, we offer a variety of tooth replacement options to suit your needs:

Dental Implants

The most durable and long-lasting solution, dental implants replace the tooth root with a titanium post, which supports a custom crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth. Implants are ideal for patients looking for a permanent and sturdy option.

Dental Bridges

A bridge can replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the adjacent healthy teeth. This option is great for patients who need a quicker solution and don’t want to undergo implant surgery.

Partial Dentures

If multiple teeth are missing in different areas, partial dentures offer a removable solution that fits around your remaining natural teeth, providing a cost-effective option for restoring your smile.

Each of these options helps maintain the alignment of your remaining teeth, preventing shifting and preserving your jawbone health. Our team will work with you to choose the best solution based on your unique needs.
