Tooth Extractions for Peachtree City, GA Residents

The thought of having a tooth pulled is unpleasant. Tooth extraction involves the removal of the tooth from its jaw bone socket. Usually, a tooth is pulled when no other options are left. Our dentists at Vassey Dental Partners serve Peachtree City, GA and will do everything possible to repair your tooth instead of extracting it. However, we do perform tooth removal when the tooth is simply not salvageable.

Why You May Need a Tooth Extraction

There are many reasons for having a tooth extracted. A common reason to have a tooth pulled is because of severe decay or damage.

An accident can also cause tooth damage, such as a tooth cracked so badly that it must be removed. Gum disease is also a top reason for tooth loss. A tooth extraction may become necessary if gum disease has advanced to where the gum and surrounding bone have been affected. In other cases, tooth removal is necessary during orthodontic treatment to make room for other teeth and improve alignment.

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Wisdom teeth removal is one of the most common tooth extractions. Wisdom teeth are often extracted in adolescents before the teeth have completely developed. If wisdom teeth do not have proper room to grow, they can cause pain and become impacted. An impacted tooth can initiate an infection, causing decay and damage to nearby teeth and bite misalignment.

Sedation With Your Tooth Extraction

Sedatives are available with some tooth extractions and wisdom teeth removals. In some cases, the patient may require stitches at the location of the extraction. The stitches may require removal by a dentist or they may dissolve on their own. After a tooth extraction, it may take about one week for the gum area to heal and up to three to four weeks for complete healing of the extraction area.

Fantastic first time visit. Friendly, Professional and caring for details. Never had a dentist ever do work up on jawline, gums, bone, and explain it to me in a way I could understand. The place is easy to find and it's very big and well staffed.

Fabulous practice! I have to add, my son chipped his tooth, he’s still at a fabulous pediatric dentist whom we love. They, however, don’t see patients for chips on Fridays. Even though my son isn’t a current patient, my husband and I are patients, they were able to squeeze him in the next day so he didn’t have to deal with it all weekend. Amazing customer service! They genuinely care about their patients and their families!
