Dental Extractions

While it is always our primary goal to preserve your natural teeth, there are some situations where a dental extraction is necessary.

Why Do I Need My Tooth Extracted?
Examples or circumstances in which we might recommend an extraction to protect your oral health: severe tooth decay, dental emergency or trauma, advanced periodontal disease, full mouth rehabilitation, dental implants, dentures, and non-restorable teeth.

Tooth Replacement Options

Did you know that having a tooth pulled could impact your other teeth as well? Unless the tooth being removed is a wisdom tooth, Dr. Stone recommends replacing your missing tooth with something such as a bridge, dental implant, or partial denture as soon as you can. Why? Because your other teeth will start to shift in place and change the way they fit together when you bite down. In most situations, this will lead to gaps between the teeth, crooked teeth, and even broken or chipped crowns and fillings.

Wisdom Teeth Extractions

If wisdom tooth pain and discomfort are impacting you or your teen’s smile – it’s time to have them checked out. Although not everyone has wisdom tooth problems in their teens or 20s, a significant percentage of people do.

Dr. Stone will need to take an x-ray of your wisdom teeth and perform a thorough evaluation of their development to see what steps we need to take. In some cases, you may only need to manage the discomfort temporarily. In others, the wisdom teeth may need to be extracted due to: chronic pain, infection, damage to adjacent teeth, partial eruption (leading to decay or gum disease), or crowding.

Happy Patients Make Us Smile

"I’ve been going to this office for several years. Renee is so great and does an amazing job. Cathy, at the front desk, is always nice and super helpful. I now bring my young daughters here. Even though we moved, it is worth the 35-minute drive!"

- Deanna W.
"I’ve been a client for over 30 years—and if that doesn’t show how much I love this team. When Dr. Aiello retired, I was devastated—I didn’t think anyone could fill his shoes. But Dr. Stone stepped in and hasn’t missed a beat. I couldn’t be more impressed. If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!"

- Anna L.
