Tooth Extraction Kanata & Ottawa, ON

Tooth ExtractionsAn Overview

A tooth extraction may be recommended to address severe tooth decay, damage, or to resolve overcrowding teeth issues. Tooth extractions are conducted only when absolutely necessary. Above all, our dentists in Ottawa always attempt to preserve natural teeth with dental fillings or root canals if possible. Our Villanova Dental Studio dentists offer tooth extractions and missing tooth replacement options in the comfortable environment of our Ottawa, ON dentist office.

Tooth extractions are a relatively painless procedure that can be performed in one visit. Our office uses a local anesthetic to effectively numb the area for a pain-free procedure. If you are one of the many Canadians with dental anxiety, or fear of the dentist, we can offer you dental sedation options. Most noteworthy is the fact that they will calm you and have you feeling relaxed during your treatment.

After the quick tooth removal process, your dentist will discuss appropriate aftercare procedures. It is important to minimize swelling and discomfort. Patients generally recover quickly without complication. However, if you experience excessive bleeding at home, be sure to contact our office right away.

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Wisdom tooth removal is a common procedure for young adults in their late teens to early 20’s. This is when the wisdom teeth typically begin to emerge. Our family dentist office provides complete wisdom tooth removal services for patients of all ages. Commonly, wisdom teeth are removed because they are impacted in the bone, or present a potential overcrowding problem that will detrimentally affect the bite. Adults get their wisdom teeth removed because of infections or decay. Impacted wisdom teeth are more likely to cause cavities and gum infections because of their positions. Consider getting your wisdom teeth removed before any issues arise.

Tooth Extractions What to Expect

Tooth extractions are a routine procedure that can be completed from our Ottawa dentist office. We will make you feel more comfortable and relaxed with our amenities. Firstly, a local anesthetic will be administered to the area that will be treated. We will give it time to take affect as not to cause any pain during the procedure. If you suffer from dental fears, we offer sedation dentistry options that can be discussed with your dentist prior to the procedure.

Once ready, your dentist will begin the tooth removal procedure. The tooth will be gently removed from the socket by the root. Then, the tooth socket will be cleaned and sutured shut to prevent infection. Depending on the location of the extracted tooth, some patients may choose to replace the tooth with a dental implant. For example, if the tooth was in the smile zone, we will recommend tooth replacement options to complete your smile. Tooth implants are the most successful option to replace lost teeth.

Dr. Barakat provides complete dental implant services from our Kanata, Ottawa, and Stittsville, ON dentist office. For qualifying patients, mini implants may be placed the same day as the tooth extraction for a highly durable and natural tooth replacement. Dr. Barakat also offers dental bridges, dentures and dental implants for the replacement of extracted teeth.
