If you have a tooth that’s suffering from disease, crowding or injury, removing your tooth may be necessary for your overall oral well-being. Dr. Haroonian has a gentle touch and takes every precaution to ensure your complete comfort during the extraction procedure. With the help of sedation and localized anesthetic, you’ll experience minimal (if any) discomfort during any dental treatment.

After your procedure, you’ll be given a few instructions to help your recovery. If your extraction was not due to overcrowding, a dental implant may be recommended to restore the appearance and function of your removed tooth.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

In your mid-teens to early 20’s, your final set of molars, also known as wisdom teeth, will erupt. For many patients, like of jaw space, can cause problems as the 3rd molars come in. Wisdom teeth can become impacted or only partially erupt, before becoming stuck. These issues can lead to more concerning dental problems, such as…

• Cavities in nearby teeth, or in the wisdom teeth
• Multiple abscessed teeth
• Pain and swelling
• Food debris becoming trapped between gums and crowded teeth

With our advanced 3D imaging, we can take an excellent look at your wisdom teeth and plan for any intervention that may be necessary. In some cases, wisdom teeth can erupt without causing any difficulties. In other instances, proactively removing your wisdom teeth, before they become a problem, may be the best course of treatment.

As with tooth extractions, we can remove your wisdom teeth in the comfort and convenience of our own office. We provide several sedation options to ensure you feel relaxed and comfortable for your wisdom teeth surgery. After your procedure, we’ll give you several instructions for post-surgery care, to help with your recovery.
