When there is not enough tooth structure left to restore teeth or if there is not enough bone to act as a foundation for tooth structure teeth need to be extracted.
As a result, when the tooth is lost the body quickly begins to resorb the bone, unless it is immediately replaced with either another tooth, implant or bone graft material this procedure is called preservation graft or (socket graft). Preservation of bone volume and architecture (shape) is crucial for future dental implant stability and esthetics. Extractions are also have been notorious for being painful and undesired in the past but with proper instruments, techniques and hand of an experienced surgeon and aid of sedation dentistry, we offer painless dental extractions with minimal aggressive methods.
Wisdom tooth extraction is such a common procedure for teens and young adults, that many of us almost consider it a rite of passage. In some fairly rare cases when they come in straight, wisdom teeth – also often called third molars – can be allowed to remain in place.
In most instances, however, dentists and patients prefer to remove the teeth to prevent numerous painful and potentially dangerous problems later on, or to correct issues that may already be emerging. There’s no doubt, for example, that wisdom teeth that are impacted (trapped in gum tissue), which crowd other teeth or which are partially exposed, need to be removed as quickly as possible. If this doesn’t happen, future problems ranging from misaligned teeth to tumors, cysts, infection, tooth decay, and gum disease are very likely to emerge. Our team has removed wisdom teeth in numerous patients with consistently outstanding outcomes for their long term dental health.

Once wisdom teeth have appeared, or have been found via x-ray, the decision is usually made to remove the teeth. In order to lower the risk of complications, this procedure is most often performed on patients between the ages of roughly 15 and 25. That’s because the extraction is easier to perform when the roots of the teeth have not yet fully formed and the bone is not yet quite as strong. In the large majority of cases, wisdom teeth extractions are conducted on an outpatient basis. In extremely simple cases, a local anesthetic may be sufficient. More often, however, some form of sedation or general anesthetic is used. In many cases, stitches will be necessary. Some types of stitches dissolve naturally, but sometimes they may need to be removed by your dentist.

Most patients heal within one to two weeks. Dr. Ahmadi will provide specific aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
For a few days following the extraction, it is recommended that you eat soft foods and avoid hard, crunchy, or hot foods to aid in healing.
Alternatives may include root canal therapy, crowns, or other restorative procedures depending on the condition of the tooth. Dr. Ahmadi will discuss all viable options before proceeding with extraction.
