Sometimes, safeguarding your oral health means making tough decisions. When alleviating pain, preventing future complications, and setting the stage for the return of your smile means taking out a tooth, we don’t hesitate to do it. At Simply Dentistry, we demystify the process, offering you insights and assurances on how this common dental procedure can be the best choice for improving your dental health. Our modern, minimalist, and comfortably warm dentist office in San Bruno, CA, is designed to make you feel supported and at ease from the moment you step through our doors. With us, the tough choice to have a tooth extraction won’t feel hard at all.
Tooth extraction is not a decision made lightly, but there are times when it becomes essential for your dental health. Reasons for extraction can include severe decay, badly cracked teeth, advanced gum disease, or overcrowding that affects your bite and smile. You may even need an emergency tooth extraction in the case of infections, abscesses, or trauma. We focus on preserving your natural teeth whenever possible; however, when an extraction is unavoidable, you can trust that you’re in gentle and expert hands.
At our office, we live up to our name. We try to simplify your dental care by prioritizing minimally-invasive care. However, we are equipped to tackle even complex problems if necessary. Dr. Christina Chen can perform both simple and surgical extractions. Simple extractions are typically performed when a tooth is visible and can be removed in one piece. By contrast, surgical extractions are a more complex procedure where the tooth may need to be removed in pieces. This is often used for broken teeth or impacted wisdom teeth. Regardless of the method, we can manage your care with the utmost precision and compassion.
Your visit begins with a thorough analysis of your dental condition, accompanied by the necessary x-rays to plan the best course of action.
Your comfort is paramount. We’ll discuss our local anesthesia options to ensure a pain-free experience.
