Tooth Extractions and Wisdom Teeth
The McKinney Dentist
There are several reasons why tooth extractions may be needed. A very common reason involves a tooth that is too badly damaged, from trauma or decay, to be repaired. The McKinney dentist will perform an extraction when a tooth becomes impacted because it is prevented from growing into its normal position in the mouth by gum tissue, bone, or other teeth. Dr. Prida's priority is to restore, save, and repair your natural teeth. However, sometimes a tooth extraction is necessary. The dentists at Stonelodge Dental are dedicated to ensuring your visit is as comfortable and anxiety-free before, during, and after your extraction procedure.
Dr. Prida is skilled and experienced at tooth extraction when it's needed to prevent infections and or painful swelling.
Wisdom Tooth Extractions
Your McKinney Wisdom Tooth Dentist
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to erupt in your mouth, generally between the ages of 17 and 25. For many patients, these molars will become impacted and cause toothache-like pain, crowding of your other teeth, and other more serious complications that can harm your oral health. If you’re experiencing discomfort because of your wisdom teeth, we advise you to schedule a consultation with the McKinney dentist. Even if you’re not in any pain, seeking expert wisdom teeth extraction from our team can help to prevent future infection or damage to existing teeth.
If a wisdom tooth emerges incorrectly, it is usually best to extract it. Dr. Prida can remove the impacted wisdom tooth. Infections resulting from impacted wisdom teeth can be initially treated with antibiotics. The most common treatment is wisdom tooth removal. The risks of wisdom tooth extractions are roughly proportional to the difficulty of the extraction.
